In June 20, 2017, the San Diego City Council voted unanimously to approve a recycling program on the inclusion of expanded polystyrene (EPS) food containers in the city’s residential curbside, which turns out to apply to singe-family homes, as reported by The San Diego Union-Tribune.
A similar curbside EPS collection bill has been introduced in New York, though the city’s Department of Sanitation reaffirmed its previous determination that EPS recycling isn’t viable in a recent report, and they may now point to San Diego as a prime example of their vision.
According to what has been mentioned above, it is not difficult to see that expended polystyrene recycling has now become an inevitable trend, which, however needs our endless effort to practice.
Professional methods can be provided by GREENMAX recycling from INTCO, China. Due to the unique characteristics of being bulky and light of the polystyrene products, GREENMAX has specially designed recycling machines, such as APOLO series compactors and MARS series functioned as densifiers. Both of these two kinds of machines can smash and then compress or heat the polystyrene products into blocks or ingots in order to make these compressed or melted materials easy to be stored and transported, which, as a result, can perfectly finish the most critical step of polystyrene recycling.
It must be mentioned that the high efficiency of these recycling machines are incomparable. The compactor can work at a ratio of 50: 1 while the densifier can even work at a ratio of 90:1, more efficiently than the compactor. Moreover, both of these two kinds of equipment do not account for too much space, just a corner of your warehouse.
Supposing that you are feeling upset of your bulky polystyrene wastes and have no good idea to dispose them, maybe INTCO recycling can do much help to you.
