Report Focuses On Recycling Market Development Centers A new report from Ameripen, the American Institute for Packaging and the Environment, and sustainability and recy- cling consulting firm Resource Recycling Systems (RRS) is designed to help state governments and other stakeholders establish or improve recycling market development centers. According to “Best Practices for State Recycling Market Development Centers,” such a center is an “agency-led or third-party-led entity or program typically established and funded by state governments focused on facilitating growth within the recycling industry through market development activities.” The best practices guide expands on four primary topics for developing a state recycling market development center: • establishment, or the formal framework for the center; • funding sources for operating and implementing the center; • operations, or how the center is directed, staffed and governed; and • programming, or the center’s activities and the support- ive tools and resources. Stadler Equips MRF In Spain Spain-based FCC Medio Ambiente has worked with Ger- many-based Stadler to complete the renovation of its CITR (Centro Integral de Tratamiento) material recovery facility (MRF) and waste treatment plant in El Campello, Spain. FCC Medio Ambiente, part of the FCC Group, has been managing the plant since April 2009. Stadler calls CITR “a large facility that manages extreme variations in waste in- put.” It serves 52 municipalities in the region. The phases of the project consisted of the installation of the new equipment in five areas of the facility: compost, re- fining, biomethanization, municipal solid waste (MSW) and selective organic collection. Stadler supplied and installed two trommels for screening closed bags and bottles of dif- ferent from bulky waste after passing through a shredder. Wendy’s To Shift To Recycled Plastic Cups In 2022 Wendy’s Co. has partnered with Berry Global, a packag- ing and engineered products company, and LyondellBasell, a chemicals, plastics and refining company, to shift to cups made from recycled materials that are more sustainable than the plastic-lined paper cups currently in use. Starting in early 2022 in the United States and Canada, Wendy’s will use large cups made from at least 20 percent recycled plastic. By 2023, all cups in that region will use recycled plastic. Earlier this year, the company announced that it would make its packaging more eco-friendly as well. Taken to- gether, these changes are part of the company’s commit- ment to sustainably source all of its consumer-facing pack- aging by 2026.
