4
CO-MINGLING MATERIAL CREATES A MORE EFFICIENT
COLLECTION BY REDUCING THE NUMBER OF COLLECTION
TRUCKS NEEDED.
5
A SMALLER FLEET SAVES RESOURCES SUCH AS FUEL,
AND REDUCES TOTAL DIESEL EMISSIONS FROM THE
COLLECTION PROCESS.
6
THE FACILITY.
7
ONE DAYS WORTH OF MATERIAL FROM ONE TRUCK.
HOW MUCH CAN IT BE?
8
LOADING THE CONVEYOR IS THE FIRST STEP IN OUR
RECYCLING PROCESS.
9
ALL MATERIALS GO THROUGH A SERIES OF SORTS.
THE FIRST SORT IS FOR PAPER PRODUCTS.
10
LARGE PIECES OF CARDBOARD ARE REMOVED FROM THE
LINE FIRST.
11
NEXT, A SERIES OF CAMSHAFTS ARE USED TO SEPARATE
PAPER FROM OTHER MATERIALS.
12
REVOLVING CAMSHAFTS CAUSE PAPER TO FLOAT UP THE
LINE, WHILE THE REMAINING HEAVIER OBJECTS FALL TO
A CONVEYOR BELOW.
13
AFTER SEPARATION, PAPER IS CONVEYED TO THIS PILE.
A LOADER WILL MOVE THE PILE TO A FLOOR CONVEYOR,
WHICH WILL TAKE IT TO OUR BAILER.
14
CONVEYORS SEND THE REMAINING MATERIAL FROM THE
PAPER SORT TO A OVERHEAD PLASTIC SORTING ROOM.
15
THE PLASTIC SORTING ROOM HAS A SERIES OF
CONVEYORS WHICH TAKE MATERIAL TO LARGE STORAGE
BINS.
16
WORKERS TOSS PLASTIC ITEMS INTO CHUTES, WHICH GO
TO THE CONVEYORS.
17
PLASTICS FROM THE SORT ARE STORED HERE.
18
THE REMAINING MATERIAL LEAVES THE SORT ROOM FOR
METALS SEPARATION.
19
A MAGNETIC SEPARATOR REMOVES FERROUS MATERIALS.
20
THE NEXT MACHINE USES REVERSE MAGNETIC FIELD TO
REMOVE ALUMINUM MATERIALS BY KICKING THEM OFF THE
LINE AS MATERIAL FALLS .
21
THE REMAINING MATERIAL IS THEN SORTED BY SIZE.
22
LARGE PIECES GO BACK INTO THE SYSTEM,
THE SMALLER PIECES ARE TAKEN TO A GLASS SORT.
23
THIS IS THE GLASS SORTING LINE.
THE SMALLER PIECES ARE LOADED INTO THIS HOPPER.
24
THE MATERIAL IS PRE CRUSHED TO A UNIFORM SIZE.
GLASS IS THEN SORTED OUT BY TUMBLING IN A
SPINNING, SCREENED DRUM.
IT IS THEN GROUND BY A SANDING UNIT.
25
THE END PRODUCT, IS SAND.
WHICH IS SOLD FOR USE IN SEPTIC FIELDS.
26
THESE COLLECTION BINS ARE ABOVE A LARGE FLOOR
CONVEYOR.
THIS MATERIAL IS ALL BAILED BY A LARGE INDUSTRIAL
BAILER.
27
A BIN IS OPENED, AND ITEMS DROP ON TO A FLOOR
CONVEYOR.
28
THE PRODUCT IS THEN LOADED INTO THE BAILER BY A
CONVEYOR.
29
THE BAILER CAN BE LOADED FROM EITHER SIDE BY
CONVEYORS.
30
WERLOR BAILS MANY PRODUCTS INCLUDING CARDBOARD,
31
PLASTIC BOTTLES,
32
METAL CANS,
33
VINYLS, PLASTICS, AND MANY OTHER SPECIALTY ITEMS.
34
EVERY YEAR WE RECYCLE FIVE MILLION POUNDS OF
MATERIALS THAT USED TO GO TO THE LANDFILL.
35
SO, NEXT TIME YOU SEE ONE OF THESE TRAILERS ON
THE ROAD.
36
YOULL KNOW THAT THROUGH RECYCLING,
WERLOR IS HELPING TO KEEP AMERICAS ENVIRONMENT
HEALTHY FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS.
