Depots don’t happen overnight

Martin Meyer
RECYCLING ADVISORY GROUP

Eventually we will have a
formal recycling scheme here
in the Castlegar area.

A major reason why nothing
exists at the present time is be-
cause we are waiting for the re-
sults of the report being pre-
pared by the consultants who
have been hired by the Region-
al District of Central Kootenay.

When a plan is eventually fi-
nalized, it will likely include
some sort of a material recov-
ery depot.

The following information
provides some thoughts about
features which should be con-
sidered for an effective depot.

It should allow for conve-
nient off-loading of collection
vehicles and at the same time
accommodate accepting mate-
rials from public drop-offs.

The depot should be de-
signed to allow effective sort-
ing of incoming materials.
Since sorting of materials is
such a significant part of any
recycling scheme, it is impor-
tant to allow maximum flexi-
bility of sorting equipment lay-
out.

Such equipment may in-
clude air classifiers and mag-
netic separators, and should

allow provisions for easy |

changes to accommodate fu-
ture innovations.

After sorting, materials
must be densified.

This typically includes
balers for newsprint, card-
board and plastics and densi-
fiers to shape aluminum and
steel cans into cubes.

It also includes crushers for

Once the materials have
been densified, adequate stor-
age space is needed so that
they can be kept in aclean and
dry location until enough vol-
ume exists for shipment.

Since market are somewhat
cyclical, it is desirable to have
enough storage space to allow
flexibility of sales so its possi-
ble to take advantage of the
best economic opportunities.

This may include a provi-
sion for storage of hazardous
wastes.

Of course, it will also require
decent lighting, heating and
ventilation, as well as office
space. -

All in all, it must be de-
signed to be flexible to meet ev-
er-changing demands.

The depot should not neces-
sarily be thought of as a stand-
alone business area, since
there are cycles in markets and
prices.

Its primary purpose would
be to offset landfill and incin-
eration costs and to keep haz-
ardous materials out of the
waste stream.
