That sounds better. In all the areas I have worked in the parts continue cooling after they are taken out of the molds...go to the final station (usually a punch press in extrusion) and I had to take measurements after 15min/30min/60 min because the parts continue shrinking. Using regrind for injection molding is a different animal then. I am also assuming that the plastics that were not reusable still are not such as crosslink as an example. Nobody is going to use plastic they can run back into the hopper to make oil. It will be all the undesirable plastics that are contaminated ( little black spots in the part), are normally not recycled (crosslink), and the regrind that is all different colors.
We did recycle some plastic, but it was only used in specific parts.
If TRTN decides to do municipal garbage they are going to need people to separate the half full peanut butter containers ect. if it hasn't been done already.
