I was supervisor at an old, I think one of the first MRF's ever conceived for five years. Mechtronics machinery in Northampton, Pa. We used Van Dyke services for repair and upgrading. Looks like the single stream equipment is improving. But most plastic still goes to the land fill, the 3 to 7 plastics on the recycling triangle posted on products are sent to landfills.
Wow! I guess I’m really behind the times, regarding how single stream recycling works!!! I live in an apartment now, & the only available recycling we have is one “single stream” bin. I just figured that I should thoroughly rinse out all food containers, including my cat food cans, so the workers didn’t have to breath so as to cut down on the smells that must accompany the sorter’s job. However, I didn’t notice any of the personnel wearing masks. So, does that mean I’m wasting another resource for nothing? Hmmm...this video was super thorough!
Generally, you want to always rinse food products and not just because of the smell. The items to be recycled must be clean otherwise when they are melted or shredded for reprocessing, that food will go right into the batch.
Sorry because on the sides of the conveyor belt, do not create specialist robotic arms (with ultrasound to recognize its material) for some materials not discarded before before (and after).
As a health and safety practitioner in the UK I was having kitchens watching this video. I think even the untrained eye could spot the inconsistencies with the wearing of PPE. I think the speed at which the belt was moving could cause motion sickness for the workers and some of them were clearly working too fast as a result of that. I can only make an assumption from what I saw in that video but I'm guessing the staff retention rate will be low and sickness rates high due to musculoskeletal issues due to staff working at such a speed and overreaching when picking the waste.
I've been neatly containing all my paper into brown paper grocery bags and putting that in my single-stream bin. So... apparently that's wasted effort on my part. Just throw it all in the bin haphazardly.
I appreciate the recycling effort. But these workers should all be wearing masks, gloves and suits while managing this garbage! The health of these workers is necessary and important.
Complex machine and complicated manual process at MRF. What if segregation of different solid waste is done at source. Life will be easier for personnel and machines at MRF. That is what is being attempted by us in india
You are right institution like schools and restaurants, truck stops and such generate, more mixed waste. In a perfect world?????? there might not be a human race! at least one that relies on convenience stores, for dinner!
I'm surprised a Bollegraff baler is used rather than a Harris machine which would of been way better and make a more solid bale plus its American made so wouldn't of been made too far away.
1)Electric automatic crane needed for the input phase 2) magnetics stage should the beginning 3) the shredding should be more powerful so no manual big item removal needed 4) the video did not address biowaste Otherwise amazing system
Why are people so freaked out by some people not wearing masks? The air is clearly not dusty, recyclables don't release a lot of microscopic material, so dust masks aren't really doing much.

WRONG APPROACH !!! The waste needs to be separated BEFORE the front end loader smashes it and the Grinder purres it into a whole lot of land fill, fill 😩 No wonder the World won't buy our "Recyclable" materials. Poor Execution 🤕
Beautiful cubes Now ship it to Asia? If the plastic is not near perfect the landfill or open burn or,,, ocean gets it. Moisture in the paper and cardboard is useless Sleep well Your recycling cubes are pollution in Asia

You need some AMP Robotics in there.
Loved the video. I am such a strict recycler! Amazed at all the new machines that help with the sorting process!
Fascinating, I will remember bits of it every time I haul of my recycles :)
May I use this video for my school video project?

how much those machine costs tho,

1:36 lights? its not suppose to be "lites"?

I guarantee you no one is working that fast all day, unless the supervisor or camera is near....lol Supervisor of an MRF!
Me interesaria ver la viavilidad y posibilidad que estas plantas se pudieran instalar en mi pais Uruguay y America latina
Olá. Já conseguiu a resposta sobre a máquina e o processo?!
Why do people dislike these videos?
Same question 😔😔
How much a plant like cost
Hopefully most MRFs will be fully automated in the future.
I'm surprised that some workers opt out of using any mask. I understand it's harder to breathe wearing those though.
2:24 there's one guy with an industrial mask

Depends where you live. Many MRFs don't want shred at all now, as it is much harder to get separated from glass than this makes it seem.
@@PatriotForThePlanet Exactly. Places are different, and sometimes change waste haulers which do things differently. Check with your local company.
I appreciate the recycling effort. But these workers should all be wearing masks, gloves and suits while managing this garbage! The health of these workers is necessary and important.
Most probably wouldn't want to wear it.

I like more videos about capital cause etc.
I am interested.
where i can buy like this machine
impressive one';all of the people have to know about recycle
Great job
I would like to know how much the cost will be for factory like this
Please let me know
Thanks

this system is obviously to big for my kitchen where sorting needs to begin.

European machines are better 😉
I'll show how integrated engineering design work's
Hola amigos
Mass machines but little result!
1)Electric automatic crane needed for the input phase
2) magnetics stage should the beginning
3) the shredding should be more powerful so no manual big item removal needed
4) the video did not address biowaste
Otherwise amazing system
I wonder if they ever find money? It's in there
We do
I found 800 in my first week
I tossed a metal drill press into the recycling bin. Think it got recycled or tossed?

I cant believe these workers arnt wearing face masks,that environment is disgusting.
Terrible music. Also ALL staff should be REQUIRED to wear dust masks.
Why are people so freaked out by some people not wearing masks? The air is clearly not dusty, recyclables don't release a lot of microscopic material, so dust masks aren't really doing much.
Amén mi piri para que me digas que te parece y que te parece y que te parece y
It’s actually dusty asfuck due to glad and paper dust
A very boring job for those sorting out the rubbish
I can't even imagine doing that ALL DAY LONG! Those must be the employees who screwed up bad!
no brain
The pay is 45 an hour in Audi just bought a gt86
workers not use mask protection
Why are the quality control workers working so hard?? I sense the machines are NOT doing their jobs well.
The machines are starting to be rolled out.
I will make waste treatment plant
makes me think about kindergarden (im in 2nd grade.)
No one asked..
@zero one Lol, I'm not being being toxic.
@zero one I'm 13 Not everyone on YT is a grown man. I bet your like 50 sitting behind a PC rn
I want to work for you an employee don't need me too from thals
sup yall im famous
recycling isn't easy, that's for sure.
Jeeeeeeee

No amount of robotization can replace the human worker in this process.
its too complicated. and too much labors.

Guess the crappy music helps sorting.
Yyyyyyy
WRONG APPROACH !!!

Did you even watch the video? The belt at 4:20 showed the only material to not be processed. 99.99% of it got recycled.
Beautiful cubes
Now ship it to Asia?
If the plastic is not near perfect the landfill or open burn or,,, ocean gets it.
Moisture in the paper and cardboard is useless
Sleep well
Your recycling cubes are pollution in Asia
