Why SortFlow Process?
The Challenge
MRFs and recycling systems are complex. Predicting how changes in input streams, equipment, or contamination affect outputs is nearly impossible with spreadsheets.
The Solution
SortFlow PROCESS applies rigorous mass-balance modelling to simulate how materials move through the facility, helping you test scenarios and make investment decisions with confidence.
