San Diego Sees Nearly 20% Recycling Collection Spike San Diego waste haulers have seen an 18 percent spike for trash, a 19 percent spike for recycling and a 17 percent increase for green waste during the COVID-19 pandemic, reported the San Diego Union-Tribune . City officials compared a 40-day period from March 23 to May 1 this year to a similar period in 2019. During the 40 days in 2019, city haulers picked up 38,820 tons of trash, 7,236 tons of recycling and 5,562 tons of green waste. During the 40 days this year, they’ve picked up 45,735 tons of trash, 8,591 tons of recycling and 6,480 tons of green waste. Michelin Invests In Canadian Plastic Recycling Firm Montreal-based Pyrowave,which describes itself as having developed technology allowing for the infinite recycling of plastics, has closed on a second round of investment fund- ing led by global tire producer Michelin. The funding, for an undisclosed amount, will help Pyro- wave add scale and bring its modular microwave-based chemical recycling technology to market, said the firm. In 2018, Michelin acquired United States-based Lehigh Technologies, and has subsequently invested to bring that firm’s scrap tires-to-micronized rubber powder (MRP) pro- cess to Europe.
