One good example for this question is BIOGAS from Municipal Solid Waste (MSW)/ from biodegradable part of the waste. == : Biogas can easily be produced from current waste streams, such as: paper production, sugar production, sewage, animal waste and so forth. These various waste streams have to be slurried together and allowed to naturally ferment, producing methane gas. This can be done by converting current sewage plants into biogas plants. When a biogas plant has extracted all the methane it can, the remains are sometimes better suitable as fertilizer than the original biomass.
Alternatively biogas can be produced via advanced waste processing systems such as mechanical biological treatment. These systems recover the recyclable elements of household waste and process the biodegradable fraction in anaerobic system. Natural Gas is a biogas which has been upgraded to a quality similar to natural gas. By upgrading the quality to that of natural gas, it becomes possible to distribute the gas to the mass market via gas grid.

PET or PETE = polyethylene terephthalate, after the plastic used to make the bottles
I have kept vinegar in clear PET bottles for over a year and they are doing fine.
Approximately 500 billion PET bottles are produced worldwide annually.
Some environmentally friendly alternatives to plastic caps for pet bottles include metal caps, cork caps, and biodegradable caps made from materials like PLA or compostable plastics. These options are more sustainable and can help reduce plastic waste.
Pet flakes are small pieces of plastic material that are produced by recycling polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles. These flakes can be melted and reshaped into new products, such as polyester fibers for textiles or packaging materials. Recycling PET bottles into flakes helps reduce waste and promotes sustainability.
PET is the type of plastic the bottles are made from. These are the regular disposable water bottles you see in stores (Aquafina, Poland Spring, etc).

PET bottle recycling refers to the process of collecting and processing polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles so that the material can be reused in new products. PET is a type of plastic commonly used for packaging beverages, water, and other products due to its strong, lightweight, and food-safe properties. Here’s an overview of the PET bottle recycling process: **Collection**: PET bottles are collected from various sources, including households, businesses, and public places. Collection can be done through curbside recycling programs, deposit-return schemes, and dedicated recycling bins. **Sorting**: Collected PET bottles are sorted to separate them from other types of plastics and materials. This can be done manually or using automated systems that identify PET by its resin identification code (usually marked with a number 1 inside the recycling symbol). **Cleaning**: The bottles are cleaned to remove any contaminants, such as labels, adhesives, and residues. This involves washing the bottles in hot water and using detergents. **Shredding**: Cleaned PET bottles are shredded into small pieces called "flakes." These flakes are easier to handle and process in the subsequent steps. **Pelletizing**: The PET flakes are melted and formed into small pellets. These pellets can be used as raw material for manufacturing new PET products. **Repurposing**: The recycled PET pellets can be used to make a variety of new products, such as new PET bottles, textile fibers for clothing and carpets, food containers, and other plastic items. **Quality Control**: Throughout the recycling process, quality control measures are implemented to ensure the recycled PET meets specific standards and is safe for its intended use. Recycling PET bottles helps reduce waste, save energy, and decrease the demand for virgin plastic, thus contributing to environmental sustainability.
You can, but many people recommend that you do NOT use pet waste as compost material, because of the possibility of smell. But you can, in fact, buy composting toilets for humans, and also for pets.
Usually the PET and PVC bottles are separated by manual before they are washed by washing recycling line. Because the PET and PVC bottles' color, shape, usage are very different, it is very easy to distinguish by manual. But if the mixed PET and PVC flakes, it is very hard to separated by traditional way. But because of their color different, now they can separated by optical sorter.
Hi, Full form of PET is known as Polyethylene terephthalate . I know a PET bottles Manufacturer named DDW PLASTIC & MOULD which provides all services regarding Plastic mould.
