This scheme demonstrates how a responsible recycling model can enable social inclusivity and be replicated elsewhere. For more than 70 years, Cairo?s zabbaleen (Arabic for waste collectors) have been gathering and recycling the city?s rubbish with an efficiency that would be the envy of most professional waste management companies.
7 ways to boost e-waste recycling ? and why it matters
29 Apr 2025 at 7:43pm
Higher global consumption of e-goods, shorter product life cycles and fewer repair options mean the amount of unwanted phones, laptops and other items is soaring. However, changing attitudes to the circular economy mean initiatives aimed at reusing and recycling e-waste could help us use precious metals and minerals more sustainably.
?Wishcycling?: the dos and don?ts of recycling | World Economic Forum
26 Apr 2025 at 3:00pm
Recycling the correct materials, however, can accelerate the circular economy through upcycling. Researchers at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia, recently revealed ways to produce high-value products, such as carbon nanotubes (used to design lightweight parts for aerospace) and clean liquid fuel, from used plastic. The process can also ...
5 innovative ways your coffee grounds can be recycled
28 Apr 2025 at 3:24am
At its coffee recycling factory in Cambridgeshire, it processes thousands of tonnes of coffee waste into coffee logs. Made from the grounds of 25 cups of coffee, bio-bean claims its coffee logs burn 20% hotter and longer than kiln-dried wood.
Recycling metals can help the mining industry tackle e-waste
26 Apr 2025 at 8:44pm
Recycling metals eliminates waste generated during the production process. Additionally, carbon dioxide emitted during production of copper could be reduced by up to 85% through recycling. Unfortunately, recycling processes are difficult to manage and monitor, however.
Recycling alone won't solve the plastic waste crisis
28 Apr 2025 at 8:53am
Recycling is increasingly seen as an unsuitable solution to the growing volume of food waste produced by the world. In addition to reducing our overall consumption levels, addressing the waste crisis will require more support for new forms of packaging such as those made from compostable materials.
Beyond recycling: how to solve the plastic waste crisis
24 Apr 2025 at 11:52pm
The recycling process itself also creates problems. A new report by Greenpeace and the International Pollutants Elimination Network has revealed how plastics which are made with or come into contact with toxic chemicals, such as flame retardants, can contaminate the recycling process by spreading these toxins through subsequent batches of plastic waste.
Here's how textile recycling can create jobs and reduce pollution
23 Apr 2025 at 11:46pm
Textile recycling can help to reduce the amount of textile waste that ends up in landfills, save resources and improve working conditions for garment workers. Textile recycling can help reduce landfill space, pollution from dyes and chemicals, and improve working conditions for garment workers.
Why recycling metal is an opportunity too good to waste
30 Apr 2025 at 2:17am
Recycling 'energy-transition metals' - or metals from batteries, electric vehicles and renewable-energy products offers abundant growth potential. The structure of secondary supply chains must evolve, driven by policy that stimulates domestic processing and consumption.
