The paper deals with recovery of materials for a proactive and sustainable management of the environment. Special attention is focused on the activities of regenerating wastes from low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and polypropylene (PP), deriving from the manufacturing of ladies sanitary napkins and children diapers. From regeneration, a discarded roduct, consisting in wastewater deriving from the condensation of gases released upon melting of the plastic materials, is obtained. A complete assessment of the regenerating activity must go hand in hand with a characterization f the astewater generated, i.e. nature and composition of wastewater, through chemical and biotoxicologic analyses.
