Pulping is a mechanical process that involves breaking down paper and cardboard into individual fibers using water and mechanical agitation.

Deinking is a process used in paper recycling to remove ink and other contaminants from paper fibers, allowing them to be reused in the production of new paper.

Sodium hydroxide is often used in chemical recycling of paper and cardboard to dissolve lignin and other non-cellulosic materials, leaving behind cellulose fibers that can be used to produce new paper.

Recycling paper and cardboard has multiple environmental benefits, including reducing greenhouse gas emissions by avoiding the production of new paper from virgin materials, conserving forests by reducing the demand for wood pulp, and reducing water pollution by minimizing the use of chemicals and water in paper production.

Recycling paper and cardboard faces several challenges, including contamination of recyclable materials with non-recyclable items, high energy consumption in recycling processes, and limited availability of recyclable materials due to factors such as consumer behavior and waste management practices.

The primary application of recycled paper and cardboard is the production of new paper and cardboard products, utilizing the recycled fibers to create new sheets of paper or cardboard with similar properties to virgin materials.

Recycling paper and cardboard reduces the need for landfills, conserves natural resources, and generates revenue from the sale of recycled materials. However, it does not increase the demand for virgin paper and cardboard, as the goal of recycling is to reduce the production of new materials from virgin sources.

Sorting is the process of removing contaminants such as plastics, metals, and non-recyclable paper grades from recyclable paper and cardboard to ensure the quality of the recycled materials.
