Film, Polystyrene, and Plastic Bags<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n <\/p>\n
While it is easy to recycle plastic pots, trays, and tubs, it is difficult to reprocess other plastics, including film, polystyrene, and plastic bags.<\/span><\/p>\nThese products are made of various forms of trays, plastic bottles, tubs, and pots. Currently, it is challenging to recycle these items because the materials recovery facilities cannot sort them.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
\n- Aerosol Cans<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/p>\n
Whether they have non-hazardous liquids, such as spray paint or whipped cream, you should recycle aerosol cans. This is primarily because of the pressurized air inside the cans.<\/span><\/p>\nHowever, some states or cities might have the capabilities to recycle these cans, so ensure you confirm this with the local programs. Chances are, your local community may require the cans to go into separate disposal or recycle with other metal cans.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
\n- Toothpaste or Squeezable Tubes<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/p>\n
Sun cream, toothpaste, and other squeezable tubes are hard to recycle since they combine various materials. Toothpaste tubes may have a thin layer of aluminum and different forms of plastics, making it difficult for machines to process and separate them.<\/span><\/p>\nThough Colgate partnered with Terracycle, a company which molds things into new products, like park benches, to provide a recycling scheme for toothbrushes and toothpaste tubes. This means individuals may recycle packaging in more than 3000 locations across the globe.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
\n- Receipts<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/p>\n
Receipts are normally printed on thermal paper, which has BPA that resists decomposition. This makes receipts not compostable or recyclable.<\/span><\/p>\nIf your receipts end up in a recycling facility, they may contaminate the entire batch of recycled papers or could end up in products, including shopping bags, toilet papers, paper food storage, and paper napkins.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
\n- Ceramics<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/p>\n
You can recycle chipped dishes and old coffee mugs because damaged heat-treated glasses are not safe to reuse.<\/span><\/p>\nUnfortunately, you will need to toss the items in the bin or change them into containers to grow flowers or your preferred plants.<\/span><\/p>\nIt might be tempting when you are unsure whether something is recyclable or can be put in a recycling bin, hoping that you will find a way to reuse it.<\/span><\/p>\nIn order to keep your recycling systems healthy, it is vital to leave some items out of the recycling. This is because non-recyclable items may put recycling facility employees in danger or at risk.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In modern\u2019s society, different types of waste can be very harmful to the planet.
