The rubbish arrives and the trucks are weighed to find out the weight of the
rubbish. All of the rubbish will end up in one of three areas (Recycling, Landfill or
Composting)

This is the landfill site. Any rubbish that can
not be recycled is dumped on this mound.

This duck is sitting on enough rubbish to cover your school.
In Cardiff this much rubbish is dumped every year.

Where is this horse?
This is an old landfill site which has been capped. There is still a lot of rubbish decomposing beneath this ground.

Rotting rubbish creates a gas called methane. This gas is reused to generate
electricity.

Why do you think they
need hawks here?
Seagulls and rats are
seen as pests that like to live
in the rubbish.
Hawks are used to
scare them away.

Did you know even your bin is
recycled?
![Page 9: Lamby Way](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062310/56815c34550346895dca1977/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
We are now inside the recycling centre (Also know as MRF)
![Page 10: Lamby Way](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062310/56815c34550346895dca1977/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Green bags are opened ready for sorting.
![Page 11: Lamby Way](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062310/56815c34550346895dca1977/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The waste is sorted by hand into different chutes.
What is at the bottom of this
chute?

These cages collect the materials that have been dropped down the chutes.

At the end of the conveyor belt a magnet sorts the aluminium and steel cans.

The separated
materials are squashed in the baler.
The bales are moved outside.

The bales are collected and taken away to be made into new products.

You can also bring some of your recyclables here. Do you know of any other recycling
facilities near your school?

The fridges are waiting here to have the gas removed before they are recycled.

Garden and park waste can be recycled
too.

Composting
begins here.
It is sieved
and chopped.
![Page 20: Lamby Way](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062310/56815c34550346895dca1977/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Over the next 12
weeks the compost is turned by
lorries.
It begins to break down.
