The diagram below shows the recycling process of plastics

Overall, it can be seen that there are six main steps in the process, beginning with people buying and using, and ending with re-entering the market of recycled plastic products.

In the first stage of the process, people buy plastic stuff from stores or shops and use them for their personal purpose. After that, plastic users throw those empty bottles away, which are collected for later recycling. Then, those assembled bottles are taken to a sorting house, where they are divided into different categories.

In the next stage of the process, plastics are placed in a trunk driving them to a factory to process and recreate. Following this, new plastic products are born and they are stored in shops and supermarkets, waiting for customers to come, buy and use them. A new loop is created.
