Ok.
Poopy diapers to become patio furniture in Scotland
Recycling firm Knowaste partners with Zero Waste Scotland to launch a 6-month pilot scheme that will enable more than 35,000 households to recycle soiled nappies and other absorbent waste products curbside.
Last year, I reported that Canadian recycling firm Knowaste was gearing up to build five facilities across the U.K. where absorbent consumer waste products (read: used diapers, feminine hygiene products, and adult incontinence products) will be sorted and ground up into plastic pellets — sanitized and sterilized first, of course, using advanced autoclave technology — that will be used to make building materials such as siding, roof shingles, and commercial tubing. At the time, the company planned to source the waste recycled at the new facilities — each capable of transforming 36,000 tons of poopy diapers and the like into new products annually — strictly from institutions such as crèches, hospitals and nursing homes.
