Notes
[1] Styrofoam is a type of plastic. [2] Cardboard is a type of paper. [3] There are two types of fabrics, natural and synthetic. Synthetic fabrics like polyester are made from plastic. [4] The term “effluent” means liquid waste/wastewater [5] One cubic meter of liquid (1 m³ or 1 m^3) is 1000L or 264 gallons. [6] Natural Rubber Latex, NRL, and Latex are the same thing, which are different from Natural Rubber. [7] Many things that are ‘rubber’ or ‘Natural Rubber’ are vulcanized (heat + sulfur) to become stronger and more durable (such as rubber bouncy balls, rubber mats, or rubber tires).
