The document discusses the process of recycling paper. It involves mixing used paper with water and chemicals to break it down into cellulose strands called pulp. The pulp is then chopped up and heated further to break it down. Once dry, the recycled paper can be peeled off and pressed flat to be reused for writing, printing, or crafts. The recycling process requires significant energy but allows old paper to be converted into new paper products.
