COUNT RECYCLING SYSTEMS

Count Recycling Systems, Des Moines, Iowa, has installed a McMRF 500 commingled recycling system in Baltimore, Md., for Maryland Environmental Service. The system is designed to process 50 tons per shift of commingled recyclables, and features a bag breaker with inspection conveyor, fixed material storage bins, and a trash collection system for non-recyclable material. The unit also transfers material to a baler feed system, and has a Steady Eddy eddy current conveyor system designed to recover in excess of 95 percent of the aluminum from the commingled container stream.

HARRIS WASTE MANAGEMENT

Harris Waste Management Group Inc., Peachtree City, Ga., has installed a Trans-Pak Super 500 pre-load compaction system for Waste Management of Colorado. The unit produces up to 722,000 pounds of compaction force, yielding 30-ton bales of solid waste at a rate of up to 100 tons per hour.

In addition, Sung Il Construction Co., Korea, has purchased six Mosley SW-400 T-8 balers from Harris. The units will be used to process solid waste in what is said to be the world’s largest solid waste transfer station, in Busan, Korea.

Further, Conway, Arkansas’ new material recovery facility has installed two Mosley Gorilla balers that handle nearly all the materials processed by the facility. The 100-horsepower baler processes recyclable materials, while the 200-horsepower unit mainly processes solid waste.
