<br />TCMRF Single-Sort Constituent Test <br /> <br /> <br />Figure 4 - Container Transfer <br /> <br />The sorting regimen for the container process system is described as follows: <br /> <br />. Hand sorting for bulky items and unrecoverable materials. The most common items <br />removed at this sort station, for example, are large plastic pails and buckets, items not <br />targeted for recycling. <br />. Mechanical screening of broken glass and fines by use of a trommel. <br />. Mechanical removal of steel items (mostly cans) by use of magnets. <br />. Separation of "light" and "heavy" containers by use of an air stream (classifier). <br />Glass, being heavy, falls through the air stream while plastic bottles and aluminum <br />cans, being light, are blown in another direction. <br />. Glass, separated by the air classifier, is conveyed to a sorting line where brown and <br />green glass is sorted by hand. Clear glass proceeds to the end of the line. <br />. Plastic bottles and aluminum cans, separated by the air classifier, proceed through a <br />combination perforator screen which acts to further screen fines, perforate the plastic <br />bottles to aid in baling and serves to split the total flow of materials onto two parallel <br />sorting lines. <br />. Plastic bottles are sorted by hand into three categories; natural HDPE (milk jugs), <br />pigmented HDPE (detergent bottles) and PET (soda/water bottles). <br />. Aluminum cans are separated mechanically by eddy-current magnets. <br />. The materials remaining on the line proceed to a trash container as residue. <br /> <br />6 <br />
