Recycling
Material Recovery Facility Efficiency Calculator
Measures how effectively a Material Recovery Facility (MRF) separates clean recyclables from incoming mixed waste, reporting recovery rate and residual (loss) rate as percentages. Use it to benchmark facility performance or identify contamination problems.
