reclaim: to return to original condition.
(recuperar)
recovery: generic term encompassing the remployment, reuse, recycling or regeneration of waste.
(recuperación)
recycling: direct re-introduction of a waste type into the production cycle from which it originates as a total or partial replacement for a new material. For example, melting down broken bottles to make new ones. Newspapers, magazines and glass can be recycled if they are selectively collected. Textile products and fermentable materials cannot be recycled.
(reciclaje)
regeneration: physical or chemical procedure, which provides waste with the necessary characteristics needed to allow it to be used as a replacement for a new raw material. For example: recycled paper re-generated by de-inking.
renewable resource: a resource or substance, such as a forest, that can be replenished through natural or artificial means.
(fuente renovable)
residual waste: waste, resulting or not from processing, which is no longer likely to be processed in the current technical and economic conditions. The recoverable fraction has either already been extracted or the waste's pollutant or hazardous nature been reduced (often, but not necessarily, "waste resulting from waste").
reuse: the use of a product more than once in its original form, for the same or a new purpose.
