Izinto ezisetyenzisiweyo ezithathwa ecaleni kweHarrisburg nakwezinye izixeko ezininzi ziphelela ePennWaste eYork County, indawo entsha esebenza iitoni ezili-14,000 zezinto ezinokuphinda zisetyenziswe ngenyanga. Umlawuli wokusetyenziswa kwezinto ngokutsha uTim Horkay uthe le nkqubo izenzekela kakhulu, kwaye ichaneke ngama-97 ekhulwini ekuhlukaniseni iintlobo ezahlukeneyo zezinto ezisetyenzisiweyo.
Uninzi lweengxowa zephepha, zeplastiki, ze-aluminium kunye nezobisi zinokuphinda zisetyenziswe ngabahlali ngaphandle kwengxaki enkulu. Izikhongozeli kufuneka zihlanjwe, kodwa zingacocwa. Inkunkuma encinci yokutya iyamkeleka, kodwa iibhokisi zepizza ezinamafutha okanye inkunkuma enkulu yokutya enamathele kwizinto azivumelekanga.
Nangona le nkqubo ngoku izenzekela ngokuzenzekelayo, iziko lePennWaste lisenabantu abangama-30 ngeshifti nganye abahlela izinto ozishiya kwiimbiza zenkunkuma. Oku kuthetha ukuba umntu wokwenene kufuneka achukumise izinto. Ucinga ngaloo nto, nazi iingcebiso zezinto ekufuneka ungalahli kuzo inkunkuma.
Ezi naliti zimfutshane kusenokwenzeka ukuba zivela kubantu abanesifo seswekile. Kodwa abasebenzi bePennWaste nabo bajongana neenaliti ezinde.
Inkunkuma yezonyango ayifakwanga kwinkqubo yokuphinda isetyenziswe ngenxa yokuba kukho izinto ezibangela usulelo ezidluliselwa ngegazi. Nangona kunjalo, amagosa athi iipawundi ezingama-600 zeenaliti ziphelele kwiPennWaste kunyaka ophelileyo, kwaye inani libonakala likhula kancinci. Xa iinaliti zifunyenwe kwiibhanti zokuhambisa, njengakwiithini zeplastiki, abasebenzi kufuneka bayeke umgca ukuze bazikhuphe. Oku kubangela ukulahlekelwa lixesha lomatshini elingama-50 eeyure ngonyaka. Abanye abasebenzi bonzakala ziinaliti ezikhululekileyo nokuba banxibe iiglavu ezingangeni manzi.
Umthi kunye ne-styrofoam azikho phakathi kwezinto ezisetyenziswa rhoqo ecaleni kwendlela. Izinto ezingahambelaniyo nezilahlwayo ngezinto ezinokuphinda zisetyenziswe kufuneka zisuswe ngabasebenzi kwaye ekugqibeleni zilahlwe.
Nangona izikhongozeli zeplastiki zilungele ukuphinda zisetyenziswe, izikhongozeli ezazineoyile okanye ezinye izinto ezitshayo azithandwanga kwiindawo zokuphinda zisetyenziswe. Oku kungenxa yokuba ioyile kunye nezinto ezitshayo zibangela imingeni ethile ekusetyenzisweni kwakhona, kubandakanya ukudala iindawo ezikhanyayo kunye nokutshintsha ikhemikhali yeplastiki. Ezi zikhongozeli kufuneka zilahlwe enkunkuma okanye zisetyenziswe kwakhona ekhaya ukuthintela ukuvezwa kwioyile eseleyo.
Kukho iindawo apho unokuphinda usebenzise iimpahla ezifana neGoodwill okanye iSalvation Army, kodwa ii-doti ezisecaleni kwendlela azilona khetho lufanelekileyo. Iimpahla zinokuvala oomatshini kwiindawo zokuphinda usebenzise iimpahla, ngoko ke abasebenzi kufuneka balumke xa bezama ukukhupha iimpahla ezingafanelekanga.
Ezi bhokisi azikwazi ukuphinda zisetyenziswe ePennWaste. Kodwa endaweni yokuziphosa kwibhini, ungacinga ngokuzinikela esikolweni, kwithala leencwadi, okanye kwivenkile ethengisa izinto ezisetyenzisiweyo apho kunokufuneka khona iibhokisi ezongezelelweyo ukuze kutshintshwe ezophukileyo okanye ezilahlekileyo.
Le doily emfusa iyenyanyeka kakhulu. Kodwa abanye abasebenzi bePennWaste kwafuneka bayisuse kumgca wemveliso kuba yayingenazo iifayibha ezinokuphinda zisetyenziswe kwi-grape jelly coating. I-PennWaste ayizamkeli iitawuli zephepha ezisetyenzisiweyo okanye iitawuli zephepha.
Izinto zokudlala ezifana nale hashe kunye nezinye iimveliso zabantwana ezenziwe ngeplastiki eqinileyo yemizi-mveliso azikwazi ukuphinda zisetyenziswe. Ihashe lisuswe kumgca wokudibanisa ePennwaist kwiveki ephelileyo.
Iiglasi zokusela zenziwe ngeglasi yelothe, engenakuphinda isetyenziswe ecaleni kwendlela. Iibhotile zeglasi zewayini kunye nesoda zinokuphinda zisetyenziswe (ngaphandle kwaseHarrisburg, eDauphin County, nakwezinye izixeko eziye zayeka ukuqokelela iglasi). I-PennWaste isamkela iglasi kubathengi kuba umatshini unokwahlula neziqwenga ezincinci zeglasi kwezinye izinto.
Iingxowa zokuthenga zeplastiki kunye neengxowa zenkunkuma azamkelekanga kwiimbiza zenkunkuma ezisecaleni kwendlela njengoko ziya kusongelwa kwizithuthi zesakhiwo sokurisayikilisha. Isixhobo sokurisayikilisha kufuneka sicocwe ngesandla kabini ngemini kuba iingxowa, iimpahla kunye nezinye izinto ziyabhajwa. Oku kuyayithintela indlela esebenza ngayo i-sorter, njengoko yenzelwe ukuvumela izinto ezincinci nezinzima ukuba ziwele kwi-boom. Ukucoca imoto, ilungu labasebenzi lincamathisele intambo kumcu obomvu phezulu kwifoto kwaye lisika iingxowa kunye nezinto eziphazamisayo ngesandla. Uninzi lweevenkile zokutya kunye neevenkile ezinkulu zinokurisayikilisha iingxowa zokuthenga zeplastiki.
Iinapukeni zinokufumaneka rhoqo ePennWaste, nangona zingaphinde zisetyenziswe (zicocekile okanye zingcolile). Amagosa aseHarrisburg athi abanye abantu baphosa iinapukeni kwiibhini zokulahla izinto ezisetyenzisiweyo endaweni yokuzilahla ngokufanelekileyo njengomdlalo.
I-PennWaste ayinakuziphinda isebenzise ezi ntambo. Xa zifika kwindawo yokucubungula, abasebenzi bazama ukuzibambisa ngaphandle komgca wokudibanisa. Endaweni yoko, abantu abafuna ukulahla iintambo zabo ezindala, iingcingo, iintambo, kunye neebhetri ezinokuphinda zisetyenziswe banokuzishiya emnyango wangaphambili weevenkile zeBest Buy.
Ibhotile egcwele i-talc ifike kwiziko lokuphinda kusetyenziswe i-PennWaste kwiveki ephelileyo kodwa kwafuneka isuswe kumgca wemveliso. Izinto ezikwiplastiki zale sikhongozeli zinokuphinda zisetyenziswe, kodwa isikhongozeli kufuneka singabi nanto. Ibhanti yokuhambisa impahla yayihambisa izinto ngokukhawuleza kakhulu ukuba abasebenzi bangakwazi ukukhulula izinto njengoko bedlula.
Nantsi into eyenzekayo xa umntu ephosa ibhotile yekhrimu yokucheba emgqomeni wenkunkuma kwaye isenayo ikhrimu yokucheba: inkqubo yokupakisha igqibela ngokucinezela okuseleyo, idala ingxolo. Qiniseka ukuba ukhupha zonke izikhongozeli ngaphambi kokuba uphinde usebenzise.
Izixhoma zeplastiki zinokwenziwa ngeentlobo ezahlukeneyo zeplastiki, ngoko ke azinakuphinda zisetyenziswe. Musa ukuzama ukuphinda zisetyenziswe izixhoma zeplastiki okanye izinto ezinkulu ezenziwe ngeplastiki eqinileyo yemizi-mveliso. Abasebenzi bePennWaste kwafuneka balahle izinto ezinkulu ezifana neeswings ukuze "zisetyenziswe kwakhona". Kaloku, bathatha ezi zinto zinkulu baziyise kwindawo yokulahla inkunkuma kwasekuqaleni kwenkqubo.
Izikhongozeli zeplastiki kufuneka zihlanjwe ukutya kunye nenkunkuma ngaphambi kokuba zilahlwe enkunkumani. Esi sikhongozeli seplastiki esinobukhulu bemizi-mveliso ngokucacileyo asinjalo. Inkunkuma yokutya inokonakalisa nezinye izinto ezinokuphinda zisetyenziswe ezifana neebhokisi zepizza. Iingcali zicebisa ukukhuhla ibhotolo okanye itshizi engaphezulu kwibhokisi yepizza ngaphambi kokubeka ikhadibhodi enkunkumani.
Izigqubuthelo zeebhotile zeplastiki zingaphinda zisetyenziswe, kodwa kungcono ungenzi njalo ngelixa zisanamathele ebhotileni. Xa isigqubuthelo sishiywe endaweni yaso, iplastiki ayisoloko incipha ngexesha lokupakisha, njengoko le bhotile ye-7-Up egcwele umoya ibonisa. Ngokutsho kukaTim Horkey wePennWaste, iibhotile zamanzi zezona zinto zinzima ukuzicinezela (ngezigqubuthelo).
Isigqubuthelo seebhamu zomoya asikwazi ukuphinda sisetyenziswe kwaye sinamathela emotweni njengeengxowa zeplastiki zokuthenga, ngoko ke musa ukusilahla kwisitya senkunkuma. Enye into engenakuphinda isetyenziswe: ifoyile ye-aluminiyam. Iithini ze-aluminiyam, ewe. Ifoyile ye-aluminiyam, hayi.
Ekupheleni kosuku, emva kokusebenzisa iibhali, le yindlela izinto eziphinda zisetyenziswe eziphuma ngayo kwiPennWaste. Umlawuli we-recycling uTim Horkey uthe ezi ngxowa zithengisiwe kubathengi kwihlabathi liphela. Izixhobo zihanjiswa malunga neveki e-1 kubathengi basekhaya kwaye malunga neentsuku ezingama-45 kubathengi bamanye amazwe eAsia.
I-PennWaste ivule isityalo esitsha sokurisayikilisha esingama-96,000 square-foot kwiminyaka emibini eyadlulayo ngoFebruwari, esinezixhobo zanamhlanje ezizenzela ngokuzenzekelayo uninzi lwenkqubo ukuphucula ukusebenza kakuhle nokunciphisa ungcoliseko. I-baler entsha ifakelwe ekuqaleni kwale nyanga. Isixhobo esitsha esixhotyiswe nge-optical sorter sinokuphinda kabini i-tonnage yezinto ezirisayikilishwayo ezicutshungulwayo ngenyanga.
Iincwadana kunye nephepha lekhompyutha ziphinda zisetyenziswe kwiithishu zobuso, iphepha langasese kunye nephepha elitsha leencwadi. Iitini zentsimbi kunye neetini ziphinda zisetyenziswe ukwenza i-rebar, izixhobo zebhayisekile kunye nezixhobo, ngelixa iitini ze-aluminium eziphinda zisetyenziswe zisetyenziselwa ukwenza iitini ezintsha ze-aluminium. Iphepha elixutyiweyo kunye neposi engafunekiyo zinokuphinda zisetyenziswe zibe zii-shingles kunye nee-paper tawl rolls.
