What are Some Innovations in Recycling to Reduce Toxic Risks?
Innovations in recycling technology aim to reduce toxic risks. For instance:
1. Chemical Recycling: This process breaks down plastics into their original monomers, which can then be reused to make new plastics without the release of harmful chemicals. 2. Bio-based Recycling: Utilizing biological processes and organisms to break down materials in an environmentally friendly manner. 3. Automated Sorting Systems: Advanced sorting systems that can more accurately segregate recyclable materials, thereby reducing contamination and the risk of toxic exposure.
