Historical Note
The 2500 tpd MRF in San Marcus after mandatory recycling (desnignated
recylables and clean green and wood) in most cities in the region; pulled out
about 15%  recyclables ( In its peak over $30 K a day) and hazardous
materials (80 gallons a day).  The shredded residual was  sucessfully
composted and had market  letters of interest as a fuel for a biomass burner
or fementation to fuel, as the residual was was composed of organics (paper,
food, yard, textiles and plastics) and non metalic inerts.
This happened for over a year  and more efficiently as the waste was
increasingly diverted  due to a fire sale closing  in L.A. (BKK), and a
bankruptcy give away in Orange County CA..
