I was hoping this was about the infrastructure and systems around collecting human garbage in the modern world.
- symplee 7y agoAnyone have any details on recent developments in the field? For example: Reclaiming raw materials from landfills Machines/robots that can sort recyclable materials from a heap of mixed garbage. Better insulated landfills
- mzi 7y agoIn the area in Stockholm, Sweden where I live we throw "all" garbage (we of course separate glassware, metal, paper, electronics first) in the same bin, but food waste in green bags. I don't know if it's robots that does the final sorting but I would believe so. Less than 1% of household trash ends up in landfills here.
