How far are we away from this reality? What can already be done?
What is yet to be developed?

What we have today are recycling systems, landfills, incinerators and
sewage-processing plants - which work fairly well.

In the future, things will probably look pretty similar, but there will
be a broader range of bacteria-like processing stages - and probably more
things will be automatically picked out for direct recycling - hopefully
leading to proportionally less incineration and landfill usage.
