Household waste

HSW : WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW

HSW (household and similar waste) is waste that is produced and sorted by households. There are different kinds: Selective collection (CS – yellow bin), Residual Household Waste (RHW – grey bin), Biowaste or Glass.

Municipalities have waste sorted industrially in order to produce standardized materials that can be :

  • Either recycled and used in the place of materials extracted from nature (wood fibres for paper and cardboard, virgin resins from petrochemicals for plastics, ore for steel, etc…).
  • Or reused in other forms:
    • As organic additives instead of products made by the chemical industry (compost as a substitute for fertilizer),
    • As energy instead of fossil fuels: biogas from methanisation used as fuel or reinjected into the network and waste used as energy to produce steam used by industry, urban heating networks, or to produce electricity.
  • Maximising reuse,

  • Optimising cost,

  • Guaranteeing good working conditions,

  • Ensuring environmental protection.

A (REY)SOLUTION FOR EVERYTHING!

REY SOLUTIONS proposes industrial solutions to help meet the following objectives:

  • Maximising collection rates,
  • Controlling and optimizing outflow quality (purity levels),
  • Controlling sizing in response to the density of waste to be sorted,
  • Maximum availability,
  • Ergonomics, taking into account individual working conditions,
  • Minimising environmental impact (noise emissions, electricity use, local supply and manufacture…).
  • Designed and made by us, taking into account the requirements specific to sorting these types of waste (INRS directives ED 914 and 6098, AFNOR standard X35-702, CITEO Minimum Technical Requirements…for CS, NFU standard 44-051 for compost…), customers’ specific requests, and feedback garnered over the last 35 years,

  • Sizing based on cross analysis, carried out with the customer, of flows and our detailed knowledge of waste and secondary raw materials accumulated since 1988,

  • Made in France using a maximum of French-made material, in a factory equipped with solar panels that produce more electricity than we actually use,

  • Integrating innovative technologies developed in-house and/or with our partners (residual waste bag openers, automated stock management system, robot sorting…).
