West Bromwich Albion took a keen interest in the Centre forward and promptly signed him for their youth academy. The 2010 season sees the Warriors change their name to Parkfield Boys and move up 3 divisions. The name may change but the sponsorship remains the same. Weir Waste & Parkfield Boys…. a Winning Combination.

Purpose of this note

“This statement summarises how we will regulate the landfilling of waste containing or consisting of gypsum in England and Wales. If such wastes are disposed of with biodegradable wastes it can lead to the production of odorous and toxic hydrogen sulphide gas. To reduce the impact of this waste we want to ensure that it is managed properly. This position supersedes all previously issued regulatory positions connected with the landfill of gypsum waste. We are developing guidance with industry on the management of ‘other high sulphate bearing waste’ that will be available soon“

Weir Waste Services

A Birmingham waste services company says it is confident that investment in new machinery will allow it to attract new clients, improve its recycling ratio and increase profitability.

Weir Waste Services, of Doris Road, Bordesley Green, says its new machinery will drastically reduce the amount of waste it sends to landfill sites and will allow it to target companies with the most stringent environmental policies.

Long-term Blue Machinery customer, Weir Waste Services Limited, has installed a Kiverco static waste processing plant at their modern recycling premises at Bordsley Green, Birmingham. Primarily sorting and processing C&D waste, the Kiverco plant forms the first stage in a development of the site to enable Weir Waste to recycle both heavy and light waste. Blue Machinery was recently appointed as a main distributor for the Kiverco range and this is the first major Kiverco plant to be sold and brought on stream by Blue Machinery Southern and is believed to be the largest static installation of its kind in the West Midlands.

The plant consists of a series of Kiverco units linked to form an integrated processing stream. A vibrating pan feeder has a variable speed, angle and throw to efficiently break up sticky material prior to the waste passing an overband magnet to remove tramp metals before it enters a Kiverco KL 830 Trommel for the screening process. The KL 830 Trommel separates 0-25mm soil/fines and 25-50mm filler material which is subsequently crushed to produce a high quality recycled aggregate. Next, the waste passes an air separator to remove lightweight materials and from there, it is conveyed to a picking station where wood and other recyclables are removed to produce clean hardcore as the final product at the end of the conveyor. Weir Waste reckons it is recycling between 85% and 90%, which is not only creating a wide range of saleable clean recycled materials but also vastly reducing tip-to-landfill waste.

Recycled aggregate is used in non-structural concrete, for haul roads and as a civil engineering and construction sub-base material; timber is sold on for chipping and shredding and paper is baled by Weir and sold for subsequent pulping. Ferrous and non-ferrous metals are taken by metal merchants in the region.

“We’re averaging 600 tonnes through this plant every day” says Managing Director Danny Weir. “When we were looking to develop our site, we needed to replace the plant we bought some time back from Blue Machinery Southern. They recommended the Kiverco system and we are very pleased with its performance. We have worked with Blue Machinery for many years now and, once again, their expert advice and after sales support have been invaluable. They are very much a one-stop-shop for us for a wide range of recycling plant and equipment and, naturally, we are also talking to them about the light waste materials processing plant which is Phase Two of our development programme!”.

Weir Waste Services Limited is a long established family owned organisation, with father Ron Weir and son Danny running the day-to-day operation. In addition to their major investment in the new Kiverco static plant at the Bordsley Green premises, Weir Waste has a modern fleet of Fuchs materials handlers and Komatsu loading shovels feeding the processing machinery, stockpiling and carrying out other duties.

“To facilitate this new legislation Weir Waste Services have recently installed a new construction recycling plant and are in the process of installing a commercial/industrial materials recycling facility.”
