<h1>Resource Recovery Facility Operation</h1>
<p>This playbook describes the essential sequence of steps for operating a Resource Recovery Facility, which is dedicated to extracting useful materials or energy from waste products.</p>

<h3>Step 1: Intake</h3>
<p>Accept and weigh incoming waste at the facility. Check the waste to ensure it meets the facility's acceptance criteria, and sort it accordingly.</p>

<h3>Step 2: Pre-sorting</h3>
<p>Conduct an initial sort to remove large items and contaminants that may interfere with the recovery process.</p>

<h3>Step 3: Processing</h3>
<p>Mechanically and/or manually separate waste into various categories – organic material, metals, plastics, paper, etc. – for recovery.</p>

<h3>Step 4: Recovery</h3>
<p>Utilize appropriate technologies and processes to extract and process the recoverable materials. This might include composting organic waste, melting down plastics, or bailing cardboard and paper.</p>

<h3>Step 5: Preparation</h3>
<p>Prepare the recovered materials for sale or further manufacturing processes. This could involve cleaning, shredding, or packaging the materials.</p>

<h3>Step 6: Dispatch</h3>
<p>Sell or distribute the processed materials to companies or facilities that will use them for making new products or for energy generation.</p>

<h3>Step 7: Disposal</h3>
<p>Dispose of any residual waste that is not recoverable following environmental guidelines and regulations.</p>

<h3>Step 8: Maintenance</h3>
<p>Perform regular maintenance on the facility's equipment to ensure continuous and efficient operation. This includes both scheduled preventive maintenance and any necessary repairs.</p>

<h2>General Notes</h2>

<h3>Environmental Compliance</h3>
<p>Ensure all steps comply with local and national environmental regulations to avoid penalties and reduce environmental impact.</p>

<h3>Safety Measures</h3>
<p>Maintain high safety standards to protect workers and visitors, including the use of personal protective equipment and safe operation of machinery.</p>

<h3>Market Demand</h3>
<p>Keep abreast with market trends and demands to know which recovered materials are most valuable and in demand.</p>

<h3>Regular Audits</h3>
<p>Conduct regular audits of the facility operations to identify areas for improvement and to ensure efficiency and compliance with all standards.</p>
