MATERIALS RECOVERY

This sub-class includes recycling of metal waste and/or scrap. Units in this sub-class are primarily engaged in: - processing of metal waste and/or scrap into secondary raw materials, or a form which is readily transformed into new raw materials. This usually requires a biological, mechanical (e.g., cutting, pressing to reduce the volume) or chemical transformation process. - dismantling of automobiles, computers, televisions and other equipment for materials recovery - reclaiming metals out of photographic waste, e.g., fixer solution or photographic films and paper - separating and/or sorting of recoverable materials from non-hazardous waste stream or metal waste and/or scrap from garbage - separating and/or sorting of commingled recoverable metal waste and/or scrap into distinct categories like used aluminium beverage cans and/or metals

This sub-class includes materials recovery not elsewhere classified. Examples: - recycling of marine clay - recycling of oil sludge - recycling of plastic waste - separating and/or sorting of recoverable non-metal waste - processing of non-metal waste into secondary raw materials, usually requires a biological, mechanical (e.g., cutting, pressing to reduce the volume) or chemical transformation process.
