PLASTIC isirreplaceableasset • The plastic comes from natural resources, mainly oil or even coal, gas, common salt or even from renewable sources. The world production of plastics accounts for about 4% of the oil market. The disposal of plastic waste, is by recycling or storage in landfills. The plastics can be retrieved through mechanical recycling, chemical recycling, or through the thermal and recovers the energy contained in plastic
WHY ‘IS IMPORTANT TO RECYCLE? Thissavesrawmaterials • It provides an energy saving • It reduces the accumulation of harmful substances into the environment • It saves on waste disposal • the burning plastic can release hazardous substances
WHAT SHOULD NOT THROW IN THE PLASTIC BAG • Markers, squares or toys as the ball • POLYSTYRENE, because it cann’ t always recycle.
HOW TO MAKE THE RECYCLING • The separate collection system is a collection of solid waste for each different type of waste. • WHAT TO PUT IN PLASTIC BAG (plastic + aluminum cans and steel) • Bottlesofmineral water • Soft drink bottles • Bottles of products for the washing of laundry and dishes • Bottles of products for the cleaning of the house • Bottlesofliquid soap • Containers of products for the hygiene of the person
Plastic traysforfood • GroceryBags • Plastic film for packaging • Bagscontainingfruits and vegetables • Yogurt cups • Plastic cratesforfruit • Caps and closuresforbottles and jars • Dishes and glassesproperlycleanedfromresidues
HOW TO RECYCLE PLASTIC P E T 4 R U L E S ELIMINATE THE LABELS Paper labels must be removed from the bottles because complicate the recycling process making it less economic and ecological MASH BOTTLES It’ s necessary to crush the bottles before throwing them in the bin special. EYE IN CAPS! The plugs must be left on the bottle.
WHAT HAPPENS ONCE THE PLASTIC RECYCLING IS? • After that PET is recycled, the COREPLA (national consortium for the recovery of plastic packaging) picks it up and sell it to companies recyclers. • The companies wash it and other industries transform the R-PET in new items
THE CYCLE OF CANS AND PLASTIC • Plastic and cans are collected together • The material is separated and divided by type: PE (polyethylene), PP (polypropylene), PVC, PET, PS and others. • The material is ground and washed • The plastic is transformed into flakes or granules ready to produce new plastic objects
MECHANICAL RECYCLING • This technique is essentially the thermal or mechanical rework of plastic waste. • If the materials are thermoplastics are suitable regain granules. This method of recycling achieves better results, the plastic is approved and clean. • If the materials are thermosets are ground before being used.
THE PRODUCTION OF MATERIAL WITH RECYCLED PLASTIC • 75% of the material used to fabricate a shirt can be given by soda bottles recycled • With 45 plastic trays and a few feet of film in LDPE building a bench • A plastic bottle weighing 50 gr produces the necessary energy to keep burning a 60 watt light bulb for one hour • With 27 bottles of PET makes a fleece • With 10 plastic bottles (HDPE) gets a chair • With 2 plastic bottles (HDPE) becomes a frisbee
With 20 plastic bottles (PET) it makes a fleece blanket • With a plastic bottle you can keep burning a 60-watt bulb • With 2 plastic trays may have the same heat of about 42 grams of methane gas • With 67 bottles of water do you stuffing a double duvet • With 14 plastic trays you make a basket for carrying flowers • With 11 bottles of milk you can make a watering.
Nella nostra città…. The newrecycling center
Ricicletta! • It's coming Ricicletta, the bike made of recycled plastic. • The Ricicletta is made with plastic bottles except the frame • The weight is completely different: the Riciclette are manageable, easily transportable and frames are not painted. • The Riciclette are having a lot of success!
Science and Creativity Use of recycled plastic for the construction of objects With a little 'imagination you can give new life to objects which are waste. In the laboratory of Sciences in Novi Ligure we have transformed a PET bottle in a racing car!
Che gara!!!!! Al lavoro!! THE RACE! Getto work!
Let's take a lung model Cut a bottle Cut the largest balloon
Pull the balloon and spread on the bottom of the bottle Attach a balloon to a straw or tie two balloons with a straw
Pull the base of the balloon placed at the base of the bottle: the air enters through the straw (the mouth and trachea), enters the balloon and inflates it, just as happens to our lungs when we inhale. When you let go of the base of the bottle-lung deflates the balloon, just as happens when we exhale. Insert the tube with the balloon inside the bottle
