20140073025 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR RECYCLING AND REUSING BEVERAGES AND OTHER LIQUIDS AND CONTAINER MATERIALS - A system for destruction and recycling of containers (such as bottles, cans and the like), as well as associated liquids, food products or other residue, greatly reduces waste discharge and/or disposal requirements. Packaging and other solids are shredded, ground or otherwise processed, while associated liquids are collected. Evaporation removes water for reuse, thus concentrating sugars and other food materials for utilization as agricultural amendments or stock for bio-product production. Bio-fuels/solvents are generated, typically using an Immobilized Microbe Bioreactor system modified for fuels/solvents production. | 03-13-2014 |
