10. Titus Project Portfolio is driven by Innovation
• Glass Cleaning System – Equipment/Process Patent March 2007
– 20 machines sold since 2008
– $12M+ in revenue
• Secondary MRF – Patent August 2014
– Process demonstration plant 2013 to 2020
– $10M+ in Revenue 2014-2022
– 2023 developed a Flexible mean and method to expand processing capacity throughout the US
• As Equipment Installers and Integrators
– Partnered with MRF System Providers on MRF retrofits reducing downtime to insure the MRF under retrofit does not have to
divert material (20 projects over 7 years)
– Partnered with Innovative plastic recyclers to pre process plastics to meet a wash grind or wash grind pelletize output (9
processing lines over past three years)

Project Portfolio – Stakeholder Studies, Portable
Sorting and LA Secondary MRF
The McKinsey article comes at a time when the American
Chemistry Council also recently looked at the issue with similar
findings.
A study performed by Titus MRF Services of Danville, Calif., for
the ACC concludes that collecting the back-end material from
MRFs on a regional basis would give a secondary MRF the
needed volume to pull out enough quality recyclables to
support operations.

12. Providing Sustainable Solutions for Material Recovery
Explain the chicken or the egg when it comes to recycling low
volume materials
The "chicken or the egg" problem in the context of recycling
low volume materials refers to the challenge of determining
which should come first: the development of technology and
infrastructure for recycling these materials, or the creation of a
market for them. Without the technology and infrastructure in
place, it can be difficult to recycle low volume materials, but
without a market for them, there may be little incentive to
develop such technology and infrastructure. This creates a
Catch-22 situation where the lack of one aspect prevents the
development of the other, leading to the question of which
should come first in order to break the impasse.

17. • 460 lbs./12 months = 38 lbs/month
• 52 homes equal one ton (raise rates $3 per home close the loop)
• MRFs send to market 80% of the 38 lbs
• 4 lbs are not recycled at the MRF and an opportunity to
improve the quality of existing plastics bales generated at a
MRF

18. Secondary MRF Mission
Our mission is to create a pathway for closing the loop for
all materials collected for recycling for the benefit of all
stakeholders.

Residue (Trash + Yield Loss)
Existing Material Recovery Facilities (MRFs) sort to produce truckload quantities of direct-
to-mill commodities that meet industry specifications
20
Mixed Plastics have low value and limited domestic markets.
Historically, much of this material was exported to
developing countries for further sorting where residual
waste was not always properly managed.
Cartons can be sorted in existing MRFs, but it requires space
and takes too long to generate truckload quantities.
End-of-container line residue contains yield loss – good
materials missed by sorting machines – and other low
volume materials that MRFs are not designed to sort. This
material is typically sent to landfill or incineration.

23. What is the optimal way to expand secondary
processing?
Issue license to sort residual region by region and deploy the Secondary MRF Line as designed by Titus
• Target Plastic Recycling Facilities (PRFs) and Feedstock Preparation Facilities (FPF)s
• Work with Cities, MRFs, and using existing equipment manufacturers to modify or add a processing line
capable of processing the last 4 lbs in a residence recycling bin to close the loop for up to 1,400,000 residences or
about 3,640,000 people
Capital cost is $3 to $6M and collection and sort incremental cost is by household is $2.00 to $3.00 per month.
• Can a Municipality or MRF provider find means and methods to capture an additional $3 per month rate
increase?
• Will a resident pay more for a collection and sorting service that deliver a 5% increase in diversion and no
ocean pollution plastic leakage?
Our solution is to enhance curbside collection and sorting SERVICE to
residents and cities and cover the cost thru residential collection fees.

24. Impact of building three facilities in major metro
markets!
• Blue Bin Accountability for ~25 million consumers!
• Extends existing MRFs ability to adapt to the “ever changing” blue bin
• Conserves valuable resources and reduces need for virgin materials
• Reduces greenhouse gas generation by 330,000 tons CO2eq
• Reduces leakage to the marine environment by managing mixed
materials domestically
• Creates 138 direct clean technology jobs
• Provides data to encourage product stewardship
