WASTE GRINDING ANDRECLAMATION SYSTEM

The grinding system was implemented in April of 2012. Thispioneering system yields the following benefits:

Increased waste compaction = minimizes differential settlingMore waste per cubic yard = Increased landfill capacitySystem provides opportunity to reclaim ferrous metals

System reduces landfill costs by “in-sourcing” wood grindingSystem will yield much longer life spans for heavy equipment

The Terminator is a single shaft, low speed, high torque grinder.It utilizes a 475 HP Caterpillar diesel motor to power the hydraulicsystem. A rare earth magnet with conveyor can be used toreclaim ferrous metals post-grinding.
