1. Polymer Recycling Pick 2 common plastics (from those which correspond to 1-6 recycling codes) and discuss the process or methods used in recycling that polymer. Discuss the recycling processes most commonly applied to that polymer. Include general energy requirements and list other needed chemicals and equipment, as well as the resing products from separation/degradation. Give 3 examples of materials which can be made from these "down-cycled" plastics. Give two challenges of each recycling process, respectively.

How would you use separation techniques to recover acetone,
4-carboxyazobenzene, 1-propanol, and cumene in a laboratory
experiment.
Techniques learned are: Solvent recrystallization, thin layer
chromatography, column chromatography, liquid-liquid extraction,
distillation. (Would prefer not to do a distillation as this times
a long time).
Your company has designed a new process to dye rubbers. The process uses cumene to swell the material allowing the organic dye 4-carboxyazobenzene to penetrate more easily. The resulting rubber is able to retain its color, and...

Lead batteries are widely used in vehicles, energy storage for solar systems, wind power, telecommunications, and data centers. Approximately 80% of lead produced worldwide goes into batteries. Lead is a highly toxic metal, and lead in this case relates to exporting used batteries to Mexico. Elevated levels of lead in the human body have been associated with damage to many organs and body tissues, including the heart, bones, intestines, kidneys, and reproductive and nervous systems. High lead exposure in young...

Ten years ago, Sully Truin formed the Academic Recycling Company (ARC) to offer a specialized waste recycling service to schools and colleges. The company has been very successful and has expanded rapidly. To cope with this expansion, Sully has implemented a tight administrative process for operating and monitoring contracts. This administrative procedure is undertaken by the Contracts Office, who track that collections have been made by the field recycling teams. Sully has sole responsibility for obtaining and establishing recycling contracts,...

Despite an increasing emphasis on recycling, only 7 percent of the plastic used by Americans is currently recycled. The remainder goes into landfills or ends up in lakes and oceans, where the plastic poisons fish that consume it. One vivid place to find the consequences of plastic use is in the middle of the ocean over a thousand miles off the California coast. It is the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, a collection of mostly plastic trash that has been estimated...
