Emissions generated by the activity within the product supply chain as described in ecoinvent v3.10. The collected plastic scrap is dismantled and segregated by recyclers. The material is segregated and sorted to ensure uniformity of the type of the plastic being recycled. Various methods such as salt water bath technique (density separation) identification through the smell of burning plastics brittleness of the plastics and so on are used to identify and segregate different types of plastics The cut-off classification is Recyclable. The activity type is ordinary transforming activity. The reference product amount is 1.
