have never heard of pencil shaving being recycled, and I do not believe they can be because they are not just wood they also have graphite, lead, mixed in.
No, pencil shavings are not biodegradeable. Because of the heavy ammounts of graphite and wood. They can, however be recycled into other pencils
Pencil Shavings
Pencil Shavings... They are the little curly wood chips you get when you sharpen a pencil.
you can make a collage and put the shavings on it
No, pencil shavings are not a mineral. Minerals are naturally occurring inorganic substances with a defined chemical composition and crystal structure, while pencil shavings are small pieces of wood that have been shaved off by a pencil sharpener.
If you wanted to use all the components of the pencil completely, you would have to save the shavings that you produced by sharpening the pencil, and those could be burned as a source of heat. I don't think erasers can be recycled, though.
Go for it!
I hope not
After a pencil is sharpened, the extra materials left in the sharpener are known as pencil shavings. These should be dumped regularly as old-school electric pencil sharpeners have been known to rarely catch on fire due to an overflow of pencil shavings in the machine.
You can weigh pencil shavings by placing them on a piece of paper or a small container on a scale. After placing the shavings on the scale, record the weight display to get an accurate measurement.
no they did not that's a lie they saves pencil's
Faber-Castell Corporation introduced a pencil made of recycled materials in 1992
