PUTRESCIBLE organic matter capable of being decom- posed by microorganisms. (2) PYROLYSIS the chemical decomposition of an organic material by heat in an oxygen deficient controlled environment. Results in destructive distillation and formation of combustible (hydrocarbon) gases, oils, char, and mineral matter. (1) RATES AND DATES refers to legislation requiring specific consumer recycling percentages at a specific point in time. RECLAMATION 1. The restoration to a better or more useful state (such as land reclamation by sanitary landfilling), or the Obtaining of useful materials from solid waste (1). 2. The recovery of a usable product from a waste following extensive pre-treatment. RECOVERABLE RESOURCES materials that still have useful physical or chemical properties after serving their original purpose and can be reused or recycled for the same.or other purposes. (1) RECOVERED MATERIALS, PRE-CONSUMER those materials generated during any step in the production of a product and that have been recovered from or otherwise diverted from the solid waste stream, but does not include those materials generated from and commonly reused within an original manufacturing process. RECOVERED MATERIALS, POST-CONSUMER Types: I. Paper, paperboard, and flbrous wastes from retail stores, offfce buildings, homes, and so forth, after they have passed through their end uses as consumer items, inClUding: Used Corrugated boxes, old newspapers, old magazines, mixed waste paper, tabulating cards, and used Cordage. 11. All paper, paperboard, and fibrous wastes that enter and are collected from municipal solid waste. (3) 96 Environmental Packaging <strong>Guidelines</strong> RECOVERED MATERIALS those materials which have known recycling potential, can be feasibly recycled, and have been diverted or removed from the solid waste stream for sale, use, or reuse, by separation, collection or processing. (4) RECOVERY the process of retrieving materials or energy resources from wastes. Also referred to as extraction, reclamation, recycling, salvage. (1) RECYCLABLE MATERIALS packaging materials which otherwise would be processed or disposed of as solid waste which are capable of being collected, separated, or processed and reused or returned to use in the form of raw materials or products. Implies the existence of an infrastructure to accomplish the above objectives. RECYCLABLE waste material which is capable of being processed for subsequent use. Materials are only recyclable if there is a widely available economically viable collection, processing and marketing system for the material. RECYCLABLES materials that still have useful physical or chemical properties after serving their original purpose.and that can, therefore, be reused or remanufactured into additional products. (7) RECYCLED CONTENT the portion of a package's Weight that is composed of recycled materials. (6) RECYCLED MATERIAL material that has been collected, dropped off or brought back from post consumer sources that would otherwise be destined for the solid waste stream including but not limited to post consumer material, industrial scrap material and overstock or obsolete inventories from distribution, wholesalers, and other companies, but not InClUding those materials and by-products generated from, and commonly reused within an original manufacturing process, that are collected, dropped off or brought back and are refabricated into marketable end products. (6)
RECYCLED MATERIALS BROKER negotiates contracts for the purchase of processed material for resale to those who manufacture new products. RECYCLED PLASTIC I) plastic products or parts of a product that have been reground for sale or use to a second party. 2) plastics composed of postwnsumer material or recovered material only, which may or may not have been processed (reground, reprocessed). (5) RECYCLED material which has already been reclaimed from a waste product and processed in order to regain material. RECYCLING RATE the percentage by weight of a given package or packaging distributed for sale in a state that would otherwise be destined for the solid waste stream including but not limited to, post consumer material, industrial scrap material and overstock or obsolete inventories from distributors, wholesalers, and other companies, but not including those materials and by- products generated from, and wmmonly reused within an original manufacturing process, that are collected, dropped off or brought back and are refabricated into marketable products. (6) RECYCLING any process by which solid waste, or materials which would otherwise become solid waste, are collected, separated, or processed and reused or returned to use in the form of raw materials or products. REFRACTORY a material that can withstand dramatic heat variations. Used to construct conventional combustion chambers in incinerators. Currently. waterwall systems are becoming more common. (7) REFUSE DERIVED FUEL (RDF) fuel extracted from solid waste to be used for combustion processes or as feedstock to other process systems. (I) REFUSED DERIVED FUEL (RDF) Types: RDF-I Wastes used as fuel in as-discarded form with only bulky wastes removed. RDF-2 Wastes processed to coarse particle size with or without ferrous metal separation. RDF-3 Combustlble waste fraction processed to particle sizes - 95 percent passing 2 inch square screening. RDF-4 Combustible waste fraction processed into powder form - 95 percent passing 10 mesh screening. RDF-5 Combustible waste fraction densified (compressed) into the form of pellets, slugs, cubettes or briquettes. RDF-6 Combustible waste fraction processed into liquid fuel. RDF-7 Combustible waste fraction processed into gaseous fuel. (1) REFUSE HANDLING the preparation of refuse for disposal or for conversion into something. REFUSE putrescible and nonputrescible solid wastes, except body wastes and including kitchen discards, rubbish, ashes, incinerator ash, incinerator residue, street cleanings. and market, commercial. office, and industrial wastes. (1) REFUSE, RESIDENTIAL all types of solid wastes that normally originate in the private home or apartment house. Also called domestic or household refuse. (1) REFUSE DERIVED FUEL (RDF) product of a mixed waste processing system in which certain recyclable and non-combustible materials are removed, and the remalning combustible material is converted for use as a fuel to create energy. (7) REGRIND, PLASTIC plastic products or parts of a product that have been reclaimed by shredding and granulating for use in-house. (5) Appendix B. Glossary of Terms 97
