Proterra Recycling Systems C&D Processing

[@phillipmatthews8341]

I would redesign the plant so that when material is separated it goes on another conveyor belt and be shredded and then bagged.

[@ProterraSolutions]

John, they only pick clean, untreated wood, which is sold as hog fuel. Clean wood accounts for 50-60% of the C&D stream.

[@gregelliott5016]

Proterra does any of the extra wood get ground up like they do through places like Waste Management? Like when they do the composting

[@kenlund9671]

Fascinating to watch but what a hell of a workplace. Poor people that has to work there.

[@gregelliott5016]

I wonder how much of that stuff comes from when homes and others buildings are being built. Like with the extra wood and stuff that's left over

[@johnmanukian9385]

How come the sorters don't remove all the wood on the conveyor belt?

[@gregelliott5016]

Probably can't catch all of it.

[@atomstarfireproductions8695]

They are probably only looking for clean hard wood (probably to be ground up to make fiber board) and not plywood or treated wood.

[@rowland5951]

You need a robot picker in there.

[@whez08]

Most of the things don't get picked up by anyone. Are they wasted?

[@elbundz4091]

Maybe they send them to another facility with a more advanced system. This looks rather like a presorting, reducing the bulk. The magnetic pile would also need to be cleaned up.
