RECYCLING –
SOLLUTION TO WASTE

2. TABLE OF CONTENTS Recycling - definition - types - stages Waste paper
Bottles
Batteries
Recycling - significance

3. RECYCLING The way of environmental protection:
reduction of natural resources consumption, reduction of waste
maksimization of materials' re-use – minimization of expenses
assumption: appropriate behaviour of both goods' producers and consumers

4. RECYCLING - DEFINITION
Waste law from 27th April 2001
"... such a waste recovery which relies on repeated processing of substance or materials included in waste in a production process in order to obtain substance or material about the orginal destiny or about other purpose."
(Dz. U. z 2001r. Nr. 62, poz. 628)

5. RECYCLING AS A CIRCULATION SYSTEM OF MATERIALS
Elements:
appropriate state legislation supporting recycling
development of waste processing technology
marking sysytem of both product packages and their components
promotion of environmentally-friendly education, as well as organization of ecological behaviour in the society
logistics of sorting, accumulation and receipt of consumed goods and their components.
waste processing and recovery of raw materials from them.

6. RECYCLING - TYPES
Re-application - repeated application of material or product with the same goal
Further application - using waste for new applications after proper physical, chemical or biological alteration
Re-use - regaining chemical waste of rubbish and re- puting them into production

7. RECYCLING - STAGES
Sorting
Crushing
Washing
Pressing
Remaining

8. WASTE The amount of rubbish is constantly growing – reasons:
higher standard of life
population increase on Earth
technological developnent, new packages
modern lifestyle

9. HOW MUCH DOES IT TAKE RUBBISH TO DECOMPOSE?
Aluminium cans years
Glass bottles years
Plastic bags – 200 years
Butt-ends of cigarettes 1 – 5 years
Rybber tyre – 80 years,
Core weeks
Orange or banana peel 2 – 5 weeks

10. 'MY CLEAN CITY'
Collecting of recyclable waste (waste paper, bottles, batteries) at schools and kindergardens
Paying attention to the problem of rubbish and the need for its segregation

11. WASTE PAPER
Waste paper - unnecessary or damaged paper products which can be directly used for other purposes than they were originally designed for or suitable as a raw material for the production of new paper. Waste paper is usually put into blue container,

12. WASTE PAPER WE COLLECT: WE DON'T COLLECT: newspapers, magazines
catalogues, brochures
paper bags
wrapping paper
books, notebooks
envelopes
cardboard etc.
WE DON'T COLLECT:
dirty or greasy paper
cartoons from milk, drinks, juices
books in hardback
packages that apart from paper contain also other materials e.g. plastic and metal foils

13. RECYCLING OF WASTE PAPER
Waste paper is used to produce:
stationery products (paper towels, toilet paper, cardboard to boxes, grey wrapping paper, newsprint)
building materials:
ecofibres to thermal insulation of walls
wavy roof plates

14. RECYCLING OF WASTE PAPER
Curiosities:
Recykling of 1 ton of paper allows to spare:
from 2,3 up to 7 m³ space on a landfill site,
litres of water,
1 476 litres of oil,
4 200 kWh of energy.
Every 100 kg of paper is two trees of average size.
(one tree produces oxygen being enough for 10 persons annually)

15. BOTTLES Poland – the nearest in Europe level of PET bottles recycling
low ecological awareness

16. BOTTLES WE COLLECT: only fizzy drinks bottles from PET material
twisted caps
WE DON'T COLLECT:
bottles from cleaning materials
bottles from oil
other waste from syntetics

17. RECYCLING OF BOTTLES

18. BATTERIES
they appear in devices of everyday use e.g. Watches, MP3 players, cameras, torches etc.
Badly recycled are a serious threat to environment and health poważne zagrożenie dla środowiska i zdrowia ludzi:
They contain heavy metals
and harmful substances
for the environment

19. BATTERIES We collect: WE DON'T COLLECT : batteries
rechargeable batteries

20. RECYCLING OF BATTERIES
Batteries are collected to specially designed containers
As a result of recycling batteries are separated into 5 elements

21. RECYCLING - SIGNIFICANCE
Natural environment:
limitation of pollution caused by waste
saving of raw material that are hard to reach
limitation of coming into existence, removing and unproductive accumulation of waste that is difficult destroy or indestructible

22. RECYCLING - SIGNIFICANCE
Human being:
reduction of the amount of produced waste
lowering the production cost
keeping raw materials for future generations
