Such as melting down an aluminum can and producing a new one.  An important and aspect of recycling is the concept of Product Stewardship, or Extended Producer Responsibility.  This concept places end-of-life responsibility of a product on the manufacturer of that product.  By doing this, the manufacturer is motivated to design their product in a way that is more conducive to reuse or recycling.  Too often, products are sold, profits are made and the cost to handle that products disposal falls onto local governments (taxpayers).
