DEALING WITH WASTE PLASTIC

Every year people throw away millions of tonnes of plastic bottles, boxes and wrapping. These create
huge mountains of waste (61.) which are extremely hard to get (62.) rid of. Now, a new recycling process
promises to reduce this problem by turning old plastic (63.) into new.

Scientists have taken a long time to develop their ideas (64.) because waste plastic has always been a
bigger problem (65.) than substances like waste paper. You can bury plastic, but it is years (66.) to it
breaks down. If you burn it, it just becomes (67.) another form of pollution. A (68.) few products, for
example bottles, can be re-used but it is expensive or difficult to do this (69.) with a lot of plastic
products.

Now a group of companies has developed a new method of (70.) recycling that could save almost all
plastic waste. The (71) advantage of the new process is that nearly every type of waste plastic can be
used: it does (72.) not have to be sorted. In (73.)addition, labels and ink may be left on the products.
Everything is simply mixed together and heated to more than 400 degrees centigrade (74.) so that it melts.
It is then cooled, producing a waxy substance that can be (75.) used to make new plastic products such as
bags, bottles and, among other things, computer hardware.
