Abstract Although the level of recycling activities fluctuates over time, the underlying driving forces point to the overall increase of these activities. Recycling is both an economic as well as environmental activity. As an economic activity, recycling represents recovery of residual value from waste product.
Here, we propose and experimentally realize a photon-recycling incandescent lighting device (PRILD) with a luminous efficacy of 173.6 lumens per watt (efficiency of 25.4%) at a power density of 277 watts per square centimeter, a color rendering index (CRI) of 96, and a LT70-rated lifetime of >60,000 hours.

The treatment process implemented ...
Plastic Recycling in the Philippines Filipinos consume a yearly average of 20kg of plastics, from which 15.43kg/cap/year becomes waste. Global Alliance for Incinerator Alternatives, 2019 Only 9% of …
In the Philippines, recycling is largely dependent on the monetary value of recyclable materials which makes it an attractive source of income for waste collectors and recycling centers. In fact, plastic materials have among the highest values among recyclable waste.
Various textile reuse and recycling technologies are available and progressively innovated to favor blended fabrics. This paper aims to establish reuse and recycling technologies (anaerobic digestion, fermentation, composting, fiber regeneration, and thermal recovery) to manage textile waste.
