I feel like a big cheater uploading these videos which aren’t mine, but it’s a nice change from the usual stuff! This time I’m sharing some educational footage courtesy of Visy, looking at a small fraction of the company’s recycling empire in Australia. There are four parts I joined together in this upload, two which highlight household recycling collection and sorting, another covers the aluminium recycling process and to conclude is a focus on waste paper handling. I won’t bother identifying any trucks which hit the spotlight along the way, I’ll let them be a surprise and up to you viewers to figure out. What I will mention is that Visy’s Smithfield site is featured in the last two parts, showing both the MRF and paper mill in action, which are major recycling infrastructure for not only the Sydney metro area, but also numerous regional locations. You may notice the old fashion manual sorting seen at the beginning and then the referenced optical sorting in the Smithfield MRF operation, how things have changed! This is another cool watch for those interested in what happens to recyclables once the trucks collect the bins. The recycling sector has been a big deal for many years already, but it has become even more important in recent times and will only grow and advance in future.
