What is MRF? MRF or Material Recycling Facility also known as Material Recovery Facility integrates conveyors system which is used for material recovery or recycling. It has sorting machinery wherein it divides recyclables according to end marketable usage. Normally, there are two different types of MRF, the clean and dirty MRF’s. Significance of MRF As we know it, recycling is one method of conserving our natural environment. And MRF systems play an important role in doing the method of recycling in a large scale basis. As an essential component of innovative waste management system by means of recycling, MRF greatly helps in conserving the environment. It lessens the extraction of our natural resources thus creating a more sustainable way of manufacturing new products. Aside from that is decreases the amount of waste materials in our community thus prevents the spread of environmental contaminants that may also bring dangers in human health. MRF also offers high processin...

Biosphere Technology is a gasification process that converts wastes into green energy. Its end products also include high alloy steel wire, pozzolanic ash and black carbon. The whole biosphere process has five stages. Stage 1: Material is collected and brought to a central Biosphere Process where 100% of the total tonnage is processed. Stage 2: Material is sorted for recycling the biosphere separator * Compost production (20%) * Plastic/ Rubber recover (10%) * Metals, glass and aggregate recovery (3%, 5%, & 8%) * Materials burned to generate electricity (54%) Operating at a rate of 5-8T/hours each receiving line separates materials into two feedstock streams comprising putrescible (organic) and non Putrescible (inorganic) materials if necessary. Stage 3: All non-recycle materials is forced through the Biosphere Densifies, which compacts the materials into 20g* flakes with 15-20% moisture, (Termed Biosphere Flakes)at the rate of 5-8T/hour.These flakes fuel the Bios...
