How does a Material Recovery Facility (MRF) work?

[KRBNY]

Nicely done and great for all age groups!

Most single stream facilities can now process film plastic (ie plastic bags)

@hunthicks Yeah! The majority of single stream facilities in North Carolina, though, aren't quite up to snuff in that regard.

@jonathanmstephens Yeah, it's disappointing knowing the amount of resources hitting landfills each day. In my city, basically anything "dry" and not classed as HHW is put into a blue bag system and is sorted out. They even want clothes in there, which i believe are sold as rags from what I've been told; and they recycle shoes put through the system as well.

Really really clear. I always wanted to know how do  the recyclers do that.

Thanks.

[GreenbeingNancy]

This is very clear and the way it is done, even the kids should enjoy watching it.
