One company's waste is another's raw material

Picture
Materials exchanges and waste exchanges are markets for buying and selling reusable and recyclable commodities. EPA defines waste exchanges as those that tend to handle hazardous materials and industrial process waste while materials exchanges handle nonhazardous items.

Midwest Materials Exchange 

Picture
Midwest Materials Exchange (MME) is a free online marketplace for Missouri and its border states, sponsored by the Missouri Environmental Improvement and Energy Resources Authority (EIERA) and managed by Bridging The Gap’s By-Product Synergy program.

Picture
 The Ozarks Materials Exchange enables businesses, nonprofit organizations, government agencies, and artists to create and search online listings of Available and Wanted materials. They will attempt to connect generators or users of difficult to match materials with counterparts who need or have materials. The OME does not buy, sell, store, or transport materials.

A world without waste? 

Picture
"Pollution is nothing but the resources we are not harvesting. We allow them to disperse because we've been ignorant of their value."

Buckminster Fuller (1865-1983) 
American systems theorist, author, designer, inventor and futurist.
