The high costs associated with garbage exportation along with dramatic increases in disposal tipping fees in recent years has compelled the city to explore potential alternative garbage management options. Increased recycling provides an attractive option since it eliminates some disposal requirements with the additional benefits of reducing pollution, conserving energy, creating jobs and building more competitive manufacturing industries. In addition, through the utilization of a well-designed materials recovery facility and collection system, recycling can be a very economical garbage management opportunity.
A materials recovery facility (MRF) is a place where solid garbages are delivered to be separated, processed and stored for later use as raw materials for remanufacturing and reprocessing. The garbage sorting machines within the MRF are designed to be as automated as possible to increase speed of operation, reduce costs and improve recovery. STAVN can propose semi-automatic or automatic garbage segregation unit that effectively gives a solution to this problem. The MRF would be a more cost-effective alternative compared to the currently utilized garbage management system.
