Closed Loop Recycling
A closed-loop plastics recycling system, or one in which scrap material is taken from a processing line, in a factory manufacturing a single product from one resin type and in one color, can be quite simple. Scrap is simply removed from the line, fed into a shredder, grinder or granulator and reduced to the appropriate size, then conveyed back to the start of the production line, where it is reintroduced as is, or more often blended with virgin resins prior to being reintroduced to the production process.
