Renewable resources and waste recycling [PDF]
Environmental Modeling & Assessment, 2002 In this paper we consider an endogenous growth model in which, among other inputs, we consider a renewable resource and secondary materials. Using this analytical framework we explain the effects of waste recycling on the growth rate of the economy, that we take into account.

RECYCLİNG OF WASTE VEGETABLE OİLS
Bartın University International Journal of Natural and Applied Sciences, 2022 With the increasing fast-paced consumption culture in the world, our resources are rapidly decreasing, and environmental pollution is increasing with the unconscious release of used products to nature. With the decrease in resources, the issue of raw material supply emerges as a serious problem. Among the products used, the most harmful products to the
