Mizar Weekly | Recyclable Materials: What Can Be Recovered and How Efficiently?
Each year, the world generates over 2 billion tons of municipal solid waste, and this number is expected to grow to 3.4 billion tons by 2050, according to the World Bank. Amid this crisis, recycling has become a global necessity, both environmentally and economically.
But not all waste is created equal. Some materials are highly recyclable and valuable, while others are more challenging to recover.
Most Recyclable Materials in the Market
Copper (from cables and electronics)
Up to 99.9% purity can be recovered with advanced granulation and separation technologies.
Highly valuable in global markets.
Aluminum (from radiators and e-waste)
It can be infinitely recycled without losing quality.
Requires 95% less energy than primary production.
Plastics (from cables, consumer waste, and packaging)
Recyclability depends on type: PET and HDPE are the most commonly recycled.
With optimized shredding and separation, up to 90% of plastic waste can be recovered.
Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs)
Contain valuable metals like gold, silver, palladium, and copper.
Require precise, dry mechanical recycling methods.
