👉 Reutilization is a phenomenon in which resources are recycled and reused, often for different purposes. This can be done by reusing materials or equipment that has been discarded, recycled or refurbished. For example, if a company discards old office supplies, they might reuse them to purchase new supplies. If a restaurant uses outdated appliances, it might refurbish them for sale at a lower price point. Reutilization is often seen as a way to reduce waste and conserve resources.
