weight ratio, EPS waste can quickly fill up garbage cans, dumpsters, and landfill space. Although recycling of plastics, paper, and glass is common in the United States, recycling of EPS is not. Why aren’t we recycling EPS like Asian and European countries? Many still believe that EPS is not worth recycling. Those who have tried to recycle EPS failed to find a feasible method: Old processes were messy and slow, and lacked the ability to reduce the volume of the material greatly enough for efficient handling.

[|Polystyrene Info/Uses for Polystyrene]

Polystyrene is an inexpensive and hard plastic, and probably only polythylene is more common in your everyday life. The outside housing of the computer you are using now is probably made of polystyrene. Model cars and airplanes are made from polystyrene, and it also is made in the form of foam packaging and insulation (StyrofoamTM is one brand of polystyrene foam). Clear plastic drinking cups are made of polystyrene. So are a lot of the molded parts on the inside of your car, like the radio knobs. Polystyrene is also used in toys, and the housings of things like hairdryers, computers, and kitchen appliances.

Eighty-two percent of all U.S. municipal solid waste--or roughly 134 million tons annually--ends up in the nation's 7575 landfills (see RHWN #176). The vast majority of these landfills have no liners, no leachate collection systems, and no groundwater monitoring systems. In humid regions, all landfills produce leachate, caused inevitably by the interaction of garbage, rainfall and gravity; gravity pulls the rain slowly downward through the garbage until the rain drips out the bottom contaminated. In 1977, an EPA (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency) contractor estimated that 90 billion gallons per year of leachate was entering U.S. groundwater from municipal landfills.[1] Since the leachate that drips from beneath a solid waste landfill has essentially the same carcinogenicity (cancer-causing ability) as the leachate that drips from industrial and hazardous waste landfills like Love Canal (see RHWN #90), and since a careful analysis of landfills shows that 86% of those studied have contaminated groundwater (see RHWN taken together, constitute a major source of serious environmental contamination. Furthermore, because household products each year are made from more and more strange chemical mixtures, each year landfill leachate becomes a little more toxic, a little more dangerous, so the problem is getting worse.

[|Uses For Styrofoam Meat Trays] Hello. There is machine known as Styromelt that is in use in Europe. It is call the TP Series Recycling Machine in the States. It takes used uncleaned styrofoam and reduces it down by 95%. The end product is sterile an valuable. In Europe, the steel industry is using the biproduct for fuel as it burns hotter and much cleaner than coal. TP Machines are too large for personal home use but perfect for industrial, stadiums, malls, fast food, or retailers who use and throw away large amounts of styrofoam.
