Diverting as much as possible from the landfill is of utmost importance to many demolition contractors and recycling facility operators. Increasing diversion not only can help generate more revenue, customers wanting to earn Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification are demanding high recycling rates.

This fall and winter, a series of webinars are being offered to provide the tools and insights industry professionals need to get as much value out of the C&D; material stream as possible.

Brought to you by the Recycling Today Media Group, publisher of Construction & Demolition Recycling magazine, the Increasing Diversion webinar series is a cost-effective educational alternative that provides insights into the processes that can maximize profitability of C&D; debris recycling through various methods to produce high-quality and marketable end products.

The Increasing Diversion webinar series is a three-part series of hour-long virtual events, providing insights from industry professionals employing various approaches to recycling. Taking place from 1-2 p.m. ET, the webinars are as follows:

Oct. 5: Going the Extra Mile—Recycling Additional Material Types – Mixed C&D; recyclers and demolition contractors have the opportunity to recycle additional materials from a job site or at their facility beyond wood, metals and concrete. This webinar examines how to go about recycling more difficult materials from carpet to ceiling tiles and drywall, that could increase diversion and earn further points toward LEED certification.

Nov. 3: Maximum Impact—Maximizing Separation Capabilities – Having the right equipment to achieve maximum separation is important to maximizing the recovery rate of mixed C&D.; This webinar examines some of the processing equipment trends and variations to help operators and managers get the desired results from their processing lines.

Dec. 1: Better Grades—Producing High-Value Commodities from Mixed C&D; – High-grade wood, aggregates and metals can be recovered at a mixed C&D; plant, which fetch a premium price over lower grades. Speakers share how they’ve been able to produce high-value end products from the materials they process.
