Wastes when produced can be reused or recycledprior to disposal. Industries that cause environmental concernsduring manufacturing include primary materials and primarymetals. Pollution prevention mechanisms to achieve wastereduction require new separation, reclamation, control andprocess simulation technologies. Substituting recyclables forvirgin resources will reduce energy use, water pollution, airpollution, water use and mining wastes. Shrinking landfill spacewill spur new technologies for waste treatment and recycling.These situations hence offer opportunities for innovativeflowsheets with appropriate separation technologies.Development of innovative flowsheets to treat recyclables offerunique opportunities for process/product development, obtaingreen products and hence market advantage. The paper willillustrate with selected innovative flowsheets to treat recyclables.
