I have asked this question a lot of times before and I did not get good replies. Those of you who have knowledge on this please tell me. I would be glad if you treated this project like urs and do research.

I am not like the average person. I love technical info so give me technical stuff + good stuff

Answer 1

Hi JW,

have you tried contacting the Hillburn Waste Facility?

They have excellent info, and in fact a fascinating tour of the premises

Answer 2

p**p is a waste.

Answer 3

Look, the reason no one gave good answers last time is because this *your* home work not some one elses. You need to do your own research. You can't expect others to do research for you or do your home work. No one is going to spend hours researching *your* home work. Each one of those questions is worth one hour of research if you want "technical info, technical stuff + good stuff".

All I can suggest is google it. Or try posting each one of those questions seperately at different times. There's no way any one is going to answer all that.

Here are some links. But next time do your own homework.
