Turning Waste Into High-Quality Secondary Raw Materials

Image
With the exploding costs of raw materials, many industries seek to efficiently sort and recycle their waste, with a goal of repurposing and reusing any materials that can have a second life. Types of waste converted Here are few common types of wastes that industries turn into quality secondary raw materials: 1. Plastic recovery The most common type of waste conversion in the industry is plastic. The use of plastic has increased by twenty-fold, and certain consumer products contain more than 50 different plastic resins. Recycling them poses a technical challenge. Although many companies offer plastic recycling techniques for plastic films, containers, bottles, technical industrial plastics, etc., even the most complex processes are needed to recycle food-grade plastics. 2. Biowaste recovery Recovery of biowaste as compost is another example of converting waste. The compost of food waste, plant waste, card, paper, and leaves, biowaste is a type of biodegradable waste generated by many e

Is Motor Oil a Renewable Resource?

Image
Many machines require oil to operate or run, including airplanes, vehicles, and lawnmowers. After the oil is used once in the machine, the substance must be disposed of in a safe way to protect the environment. According to the statistics provided by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), companies and people discard about 200 million gallons of spent (or used) oil every day. We are taught that fossil fuels like natural gas and oil formed hundreds of millions of years ago. Plants and prehistoric animals that once roamed the earth died and from these buried remains, a natural decomposition process took place that required eons of time, intense heat, and pressure. This prehistoric process helped form the fuels we use today to run the modern economy. Motor oil (and other oils) are not considered renewable resources, but there are ways to recycle and reuse various types of oil. Why is oil non-renewable?

Update on OEM Airbag Inflator Recalls

Image
Original OEM Airbag Inflators Recall   The original  Takata airbag recall , which began in 2014, is the largest automotive recall in history. 67 million front (driver or passenger) airbags in the United States (and over 100 million worldwide) were involved. These airbags have been implicated in 28 deaths worldwide (19 in the US) and more than 400 injuries.   Under certain circumstances, the inflators (which contain a metal cartridge loaded with propellant wafers) can explode and (rarely) send deadly metal fragments flying into the vehicle’s interior. Airbags that contain ammonium-nitrate-based propellant without a chemical drying agent are at risk. It is believed that high temperatures, high humidity, and age of the airbag are contributing factors to the malfunction. Thus far, 50 million Takata airbag inflators have been repaired or otherwise accounted for by the NHTSA.   Current News - OEM Airbage Inflator Recall Updated  On September 20, 2021, the National Highway Traffic Safety Admi
