You can produce fuel from old plastic bags for example. As well as garden benches, wastebins and many plastic articles. Please contact the nearest chamber of commerce for further advice.

HDPE from milk bottles is very popular for recycling. 29% of recycled HDPE bottles go into making new bottles.. The plastic pipe industry consumes 18% of the recycled HDPE.
Other strong markets for HDPE are for lawn and garden products (such as edging), plastic lumber (decks, benches, picnic tables), film and sheet, and a variety of injection molding products (buckets, crates and automobile parts).

Comment on Perfect Pod EZ-Cup Filter Papers by J. Pytel

These filter papers are created for the Perfect Pod EZ-Cup filter. A nice invention that uses a spring loaded thick plastic K-Cup clone to insert directly into your Keurig K-Cup coffee maker. The Keurig version of a reusable filter requires you actually remove the standard insert for thier alternative insert. A cumbersome task to us folks that have a need for speed in the morning. The filters are a little pricey for me. I think buying in more bulk would reduce the price per filter count. Using these right now creates a cost of probably 10+ cents per cup of coffee. Buying at the most in bulk (80 count packs found at your warehouse resellers like BJ’s) have a cost of roughly 28 cents per cup. I give these filters with the Perfect Pod of course **** four stars for ease of use and cleanup. Only one misfire that caused a coffee filled with “pulp” as I call it but i filtered it and saved the brew. This product is worth the price but I’d like to see the filter cost come down a few bucks.

This is an amended review: the EZ-Cup holder and filter combo really does work very well. The holder is the size and shape of a K-Cup, with a lid that snaps on. You put coffee grounds or tea leaves in a filter that's also shaped like a K-Cup and has a flap on top. This is essentially what a K-Cup is.

Something I didn't know when I first used it: if your Keurig produces higher pressure than normal, the filter could tear and deposit coffee grinds or tea leaves in your cup. If that happens, use two filters for added strength. (They're inexpensive, so it's no big deal.) The company's president told me that in the next few weeks, they will have filters that are twice as strong, so it won't be necessary to double up.

You should also grind the coffee very fine -- one notch coarser than espresso, on the commercial grinder at the store. This is the grind used in K-Cups and is different from what's used in the My K-Cup re-usable assembly made by Keurig (the wire basket of the MKC will get clogged with a fine ground).

I find the EZ-Cup to be a much better product than the MKC for two reasons: it fits the standard holder, so you don't have to keep swapping them out (I was afraid of breaking the small tabs on the holder), and you don't have to clean a basket full of compacted waste. Just pop out the used filter and toss it in the trash or compost bin. The filter package seems to be made of PET plastic, so that gets recycled with bottles. Rating: 5 / 5

I have been looking for a K-Cup replacement that is not a mess to use. This resolves it and is cheap and very easy with a no mess clean up. It also seems to make a stronger cup of coffee.

If you are looking to make your own K-Cup, this is the one to use.

This is a godsend! I adore my Keurig but was looking to use my own coffee grounds since I can’t find a K-cup that matches Dunkin Donut’s coffee. I was extremely disappointed in Keurig’s reusable K-cup. Sure it’s easy but removing the coffee grounds was a huge aggravation, not to mention messy. These filters along with the EZ-cup eliminates the mess of removing used grounds. This is a must have if you enjoy using your own grounds with your Keurig.

***UPDATE:I’m still loving the E-Z cup and filters. However, I just got a bad batch of filters. Every filter in the pack would bust and leak grounds all in the cup. I would then have to disassemble the Keurig to rinse away all the stray grounds. I eventually doubled the filters for the remainder of the pack. I am about to order several more packs. Hopefully, this won’t be something I run across frequently.

Comment on Melt Rheology and Its Role in Plastics Processing: Theory and Applications by Anonymous

Anonymous — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 17:14:35 +0000

I have found this book as the reader friendly in a wide spectrum of books available on polymer rheology. The authors have maintained a fine balance between mathematical theory and physical explanations. Therefore, one can get a feel of the subject while learning through this book. The language of the book is also lucid.

I highly recommend this book for someone who wants to know what the equations and the theories in rheology means.

Last but not least, considering the progress in last few years on theoretical front, this book needs a revision!
