ECUA Selects BHS For Single-Stream MRF

摘要

The Emerald Coast Utilities Authority (ECUA) has chosen Eugene, Oregon-based Bulk Handling Systems (BHS) to design, manufacture and install its new Materials Recovery Facility (MRF). The system, scheduled to start up in spring 2016, is designed to process more than 25 tons per hour (tph) of single-stream materials. The ECUA serves more than 75,000 customers in Escam-bia County and 21,000 in Santa Rosa County, all of which are offered recycling pickup along with regular waste services. The $7.5 million project is instrumental in helping the ECUA progress its recycling program. Advanced separation technologies, including BHS screens, a Nihot glass cleanup system and NRT optical sorting will recover more than 95 percent of available recyclables.
