The state of garbage in America
Article Abstract:
A study by Earth Engineering Center of Columbia University provides a picture on how municipal solid waste (MSW) is handled throughout the United States. Of an estimated total of 388 million tons of MSW generated, 28.5 percent is recycled and composted, 7.4 percent is combusted in waste-to-energy plants and 64.1 percent is landfilled.

Mixing it up!
Article Abstract:
A key to successful aerobic composting is the availability of mechanical mixers for efficient materials handling to avoid bottlenecks and to deal quickly with putrescible and odorous feedstocks. These units facilitate making adjustments to the mix and yield a uniformity that benefits the composting process.
