Isn't it mixed with burnable garbage? Recycle dirty plastic containers too!

burnable garbage is a mixture of dirty plastic containers and packaging, such as tubes and trays containing seasonings and foods.
These can be recycled as recyclables, so please cooperate in sorting.

Do you think, "It's hard because plastic containers and packaging have to be washed and put out"?

Actually, that's not the case!

Here are 4 OKs.

Some plastic containers and packaging are cleaned, heated, and crushed pellets are recycled into plastic products like election signs. In this way, the use of waste plastic as a raw material for plastic products is called "material recycling."

The remaining plastic containers and packaging are chemically decomposed and recycled into ammonia, a raw material for chemicals such as anti-itching, for example. Chemical recycling refers to chemically decomposing waste plastics and using them as raw materials for chemical products.

In this way, plastic containers and packaging that have been separated are effectively recycled as recyclables.

Burning petroleum-derived waste, such as plastic containers and packaging, generates a lot of greenhouse gases (CO2), but reducing the amount of plastic containers and packaging mixed in burnable garbage will reduce the amount of greenhouse gases emitted.
It is said that global warming is caused by abnormal summer heat, torrential rainfalls and drought, but separating plastic containers and packaging also helps prevent global warming.

We have prepared a flyer that summarizes this page.
