What exactly happens to a plastic bottle after it is thrown into the recycling bin?

I am supposed to figure out what happens to a piece of trash after it is thrown away. I chose a plastic milk jug. I need information about how it gets broken down and how it is formed into new products. PLEASE HELP ME!

Unlikely you will find anyone handling milk jugs, but if you mean milk bottles then I can help. In simple terms, the bottle is flaked (chopped up) and washed to remove any paper labels, glue, lids (that should not have been put in anyway), then melted. It can then either be made into pellets for re-sale, used for injection moulding, extrusion moulding etc. You can find more information on www.plasticsrecycling.info Hope this helps.
