Förstahandsåtervinning
Förstahandsåtervinning, or primary recycling, refers to the process of collecting and reprocessing used materials into new products of the same type. This means that the recycled material is used to create the same kind of product it was originally. For example, recycled paper is turned back into new paper products, or recycled plastic bottles are made into new plastic bottles. This contrasts with other forms of recycling like secondary recycling, where materials are downcycled into different, lower-quality products, or tertiary recycling, which involves chemical breakdown to recover raw materials.
The primary goal of förstahandsåtervinning is to close the loop in the product lifecycle, reducing the need
Successful förstahandsåtervinning relies heavily on efficient collection systems, effective sorting technologies, and robust reprocessing facilities. Contamination
