The diagram illustrates the procedures performed to recycle plastic

bottles

in a recycling centre.

Overall

, there are nine steps involved in the transformation of plastic

bottles

for the purpose of reuse. After collecting and sorting of

bottles

a variety of machineries are used to form a raw material which is

then

processed into a final product. In the first stage, the general public throws away the waste and unwanted items in the designated dustbins, which are

then

collected by a garbage truck and transported to a recycling centre, where the items are sorted into two different sections, in which the first section contains wastes which can be recycled

whereas

the second area is allocated for the things which cannot be recycled. Once the waste is sorted it is

then

compressed into blocks for the purpose of Crushing. The crushed material is collected in a container where it is washed and

then

passed through a machine which turns the plastics into plastic pellets which afterwards are heated to form a raw material. Once the raw material is finalised, it is

further

used to produce end products

such

as Lunch boxes, Stationery items, Clothes and

bottles

,

this

cycle continues when people throw away these products after using them.
