00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.860
<v Narrator>Our first principle in MRF design</v>

2
00:00:01.860 --> 00:00:05.880
is to fractionate material into distinctly sized streams.

3
00:00:05.880 --> 00:00:07.920
The next step is to liberate.

4
00:00:07.920 --> 00:00:11.970
Liberation removes fluffy, high-volume 2D material

5
00:00:11.970 --> 00:00:15.240
from rigid 3D material in a commingled middle stream

6
00:00:15.240 --> 00:00:17.790
of paper, containers, and residual,

7
00:00:17.790 --> 00:00:19.440
such as film, plastics,

8
00:00:19.440 --> 00:00:21.450
and non-program material.

9
00:00:21.450 --> 00:00:23.670
The anti-wrap screen moves out large fibers

10
00:00:23.670 --> 00:00:27.720
to create a sorted residential paper and news fraction.

11
00:00:27.720 --> 00:00:30.240
The CP screen acts as a polishing screen

12
00:00:30.240 --> 00:00:32.070
to remove any remaining paper

13
00:00:32.070 --> 00:00:35.070
and film plastics from the container rich stream.

14
00:00:35.070 --> 00:00:36.480
We can experience throughputs

15
00:00:36.480 --> 00:00:39.930
as high as 15 tons per hour on our fiber screens.

16
00:00:39.930 --> 00:00:43.350
They process large volumes and breakup material surges.

17
00:00:43.350 --> 00:00:44.670
Even with higher throughputs,

18
00:00:44.670 --> 00:00:46.680
these machines are the lowest-maintenance screens

19
00:00:46.680 --> 00:00:49.800
in the industry with unmatched disc longevity.

20
00:00:49.800 --> 00:00:53.160
Another key component to liberation is agitating material

21
00:00:53.160 --> 00:00:56.610
with our high-amplitude, rubber and steel disc screens.

22
00:00:56.610 --> 00:01:00.120
The constant pounding movement shakes loose dirt, food,

23
00:01:00.120 --> 00:01:02.130
glass shards and fines,

24
00:01:02.130 --> 00:01:04.230
essentially liberating debris

25
00:01:04.230 --> 00:01:06.990
that would otherwise be stuck to the commodity.

26
00:01:06.990 --> 00:01:09.240
It is an expectation of paper

27
00:01:09.240 --> 00:01:12.210
and plastic recyclers to have a clean end product.

28
00:01:12.210 --> 00:01:14.880
Otherwise, these bales will be rejected.

29
00:01:14.880 --> 00:01:17.760
The liberation process achieves a higher purity standard

30
00:01:17.760 --> 00:01:21.630
as it continues down to the next phase, separation.

31
00:01:21.630 --> 00:01:23.730
The result of liberation are two distinct

32
00:01:23.730 --> 00:01:25.290
and cleaner material streams,

33
00:01:25.290 --> 00:01:26.940
paper and containers.

34
00:01:26.940 --> 00:01:30.060
The prep commodities can now go to separate processes

35
00:01:30.060 --> 00:01:31.560
that ensure the effectiveness

36
00:01:31.560 --> 00:01:34.413
and efficiency of downstream machinery.
