Explanation:
Plastic: Used plastics are easily available in the market as industrial waste which can easily be recycled by melting and molding. It requires mixing fresh plastic material with macro-molecular welding flux during the process of recycling to avoid phase separation.
Metal: Recycling of metal from scrap metal is easier as it consumes less energy and also conserves natural resources by reducing 'greenhouse gas emissions' as compared to the production of new metal from virgin ore. It also saves water and also has very less mining wastes.
