For the last couple of weeks I have addressed the recycling of plastics, so I decided to see what the recycling of electronics was doing. In doing so, I found an article in the E-Scrap newsletter which provided a nice transition. It involved the recycling of plastics from electronic waste.
"An Indiana plastics processing operation will consume roughly 40 million pounds of plastic from e-scrap and other products annually,” the article said.
The company, Brightmark Energy, is planning to begin its operation in mid-2020, according to the report. In its operation, it will use a variety of plastics, especially items in the mixed plastic categories of Nos. 3-7 stream. Brightmark Energy will be working with RecycleForce, an Indianapolis nonprofit e-scrap organization.
