[News] The Styro Project - recycling Styrofoam for a greener Manila

'How do you make things better? You make better things.' This is the tagline of The Styro Project, a collective effort to Make Manila greener by recycling Styrofoam. Is this even possible? It is, through the use of limonene, a byproduct from your regular orange. Here's how the process works:


This group, The Styro Project, managed to work with engineers in creating a machine that can recycle Styrofaom using limonene. After going through the machine, the Styrofoam is dissolved into a high quality material that can be in manufacturing a variety of products.
