A lot of people are increasingly willing to recycle their household waste but are failing to grasp the basics, according to the latest research. Failure to get it right means that a lot of recyclable waste is going to landfill. The issue is further complicated by inconsistency among councils, which make their own rules and funding decisions on recycling collections.
Common mistakes include putting tissue boxes in the recycling bin without first removing the plastic insert. On the flipside, people often wrongly think that empty deodorant aerosols cannot be recycled.
Here is what we can recycle: newspapers, paper, magazines, cardboard, glass bottles and jars, plastic containers, such as from soft drinks, milk, ice-cream, margarine and yoghurt, aluminium, such as soft drink cans and foil trays, and steel cans. However, plastic bags, plastic wrap, shredded paper, clothes, car parts, sharps (needles and/or syringes), foam rubber, nappies cannot be recycled.
All of it can be said about things of everyday use, but environmental pollution can be greater in volume, if we speak about, for example, air or water. So many toxic waste is dumped into water, which then goes into soil. The air is full of dirt and industrial dust, not to mention dangerous polluters. The problem is rather important, and people are searching the ways in which the harm to our planet can be reduced. Angenium contributes to this sphere, and we found a way to recycle pyrite cinders, ash and slag with maximum efficiency. Now it is possible to extract precious metals from the waste with the help of a unique sorbent. To find more information, go to www.angenium.io
