Yes and no, say Bond and Deomano. Heat treating is typically done to kill insects or insect larvae that may be in the wood. âYes, it will also kill mold, but heat treating is not designed to dry the pallet,â says Bond. The heat treatment process actually brings moisture to the surface of the wood. âThatâs an ideal mold-growing environment if the pallet isnât properly handled,â says Bond.

The company said that it has gained previous experience in recycling hard-to-recycle waste, ranging from food and beverage packaging to hospital waste, and that the collected cigarette butts will be recycled into plastic pallets for industrial use. By making pallets from recycled cigarette waste, TerraCycle claimed that it will not only reduce the amount of litter in Canada, but also reduce the need to use wood or virgin plastic to make commonly used industrial pallets. The organic parts of the waste - the paper and remaining tobacco - will be composted. Everything but the recyclable cardboard box is accepted. Filters can be collected in receptacles - such as an ashtray - as usual. Collectors then deposit the waste in a plastic bag, which also gets recycled.
