Re: [greenyes] landfill mining

["Art Krenzel" <phoenix98604@no.address>]

Konrad Ruckstuhl did a pilot program recovering a portion of an old land
fill for Collier County in Florida in the late 80's.

I know because I built the grinder which prepared the materials for organics
recovery via composting.  The test operated for several months and was
terminated because of composting difficulties at the Collier County landfill
as I recall.  Anyone else have any input?
