This is a response to the letter you sent me regarding the five tons of finely ground recyclables. Due to your snide remarks I find it necessary to explain to you how wrong you were about the validity of Owl Recycling Factory. The following is a list of the steps my competent company took to seperate the aluminum, steel, and plastic.
1. We placed all the materials on a conveyor belt.
2. The conveyor belt then went under a large and powerful electromagnet that lifted out all of the steel in the mixture, which we then collected.
3. The conveyor belt continued on to empty into a large tank of water, in which all the pieces of the milk jugs floated because they were less dense than the water, while the rest of the materials sank because they were more dense than the water.
4. The plastic was then skimmed off the top of the water and the rest of the materials were collected off the bottom of the tank and poured into another large tank filled with a sugar-water solution. The soda bottle fragments floated to the top of the soluton because they had a density of 1.4g/ml^3, while the solution had a density of 1.5 g/ml^3. The aluminum floated to the bottom of the tank because it was more dense than the solution.
5. Both materials were collected and all five seperated materials were recycled.
So as you can clearly see Mr. City Official Gary Smith, the Owl Recycling Factory is a fine establishment that does good work with competent employees. So maybe you should consider this situation the next time you try to close us down because of "enormous employee-safety violations" or "gross disregard for public health and safety."
Sincerely, Filmore Oberkeit, CEO of Owl Recycling Factory
P.S. Why is it called a factory? We're not manufacturing recyclables.
This is similar to the method we used:
