B:主要是塑料制品。塑料制品不能生物降解，它们在外界不容易分解，因此不应该扔掉。
A: How is plastic recycled, then?
A:那么是怎么对塑料制品进行循环利用的？
B: Well, there are basically two methods. One is to break down the chemicals in the plastic into smaller chemical particles. These can then be used in the production of new chemicals.
B:哦，基本上有两种方法。一种方式是将其塑料中的化学材料分解成小的化学微粒。然后这些微粒就可以用来生产新的化工品。

A:你们这里使用这种方式吗？
