Swiss recycling firm introduces process to North America

TORONTO (Aug. 15)—Result Technology A.G., a Mammern, Switzerland-based recycling firm, has set up shop in Toronto to market its patented recycling process in North America. The crux of Result Technology's process is an accelerator that blows air through the system at more than 100 mph, thus breaking down materials into their component parts without the use of toxic chemicals, according to Brian Brady, the firm´s Toronto representative. Result Technology has pilot plants for plastics and metal recycling operating in France, South Korea and Japan, and is negotiating with Japanese businessmen to set up a tire recycling plant, Brady said.
