Recycle means obtaining new products after dismantling and reprocessing old ones. This includes composting, in which organic discards are decomposed into soil conditioner.
Recycling is attractive because it can conserve materials, possibly consume less energy, and be less costly than production from virgin materials. Recycling conserves materials by using discarded products as feedstock for manufacturing. If the discarded products can be collected, transported, and reprocessed with less energy and at lower cost than it takes to extract, preprocess, transport, and manufacture from virgin materials, then recycling can save energy and be efficient.
