  4. Process of production Resources Company Products Wastes

  5. The different materials = resources • SILK • caterpillars make fibres • make yarns • yarns are woven

  6. LYCRA • synthetic fibres • always combined with other materials • SUGAR • come from cane or beet • a sweetener to products • as by-products

  7. PINE • natural wool • ex : tables, chair, children’s toys … • MDF • = Medium Density Fireboard • produced by waste of wood • mixed with water, wax and resin

  11. Exercise 1

  12. METHODS of dealing with waste WASTE MINIMISATION= avoid producing waste • RE-USE= re-use materials which would otherwise disposed of • RECYCLING = collect waste materials to produce a new raw material  bring system / collect system / central processing

  13. INCINERATION= burning materials

  14. LANDFILL= burying waste in the ground • COMPOSTING= collecting organic waste and allowing it to decompose  natural fertiliser

  15. DESIGN • Some methods : • JIT and kaisen • less packaging • development of concentrated product • - reducing product

  16. BENEFITS of waste management • reduce costs • lower prices to consumers • reduce tax • use waste to make products, which will be sold • improvment of the company’s image • avoid breaking the law and paying fines
