more of our gravel-like material. 514 00:24:24,464 --> 00:24:26,883 The glass pulverizer processes the glass in such a way that 515 00:24:26,966 --> 00:24:28,218 it doesn’t have sharp edges anymore, 516 00:24:28,301 --> 00:24:30,720 so that makes it very safe for our animals to walk on. 517 00:24:30,803 --> 00:24:32,347 Here at Disney’s Fort Wilderness resort, 518 00:24:32,430 --> 00:24:35,225 it

dust on the trails, 521 00:24:39,979 --> 00:24:42,524 so our horses are kicking up and breathing in less dust as 522 00:24:42,607 --> 00:24:43,816 they walk every day. 523 00:24:43,900 --> 00:24:46,444 You can use the glass cullet in pretty much any way that 524 00:24:46,528 --> 00:24:48,238 you would use normal sand or gravel. 525 00:24:48,321 --> 00:24:49,531 It can be used in beach renourishment, 526 00:24:49,614 --> 00:24:52,575 filtration systems, and horticultural solar amendments. 527 00:24:52,659 --> 00:24:54,827 It’s a win for everyone. 528 00:24:55,203 --> 00:24:57,705 This unit that we have here can actually process up to 529 00:24:57,789 --> 00:25:01,501 2,000 pounds per hour, so a full ton per hour can go through this machine. 530 00:25:01,584 --> 00:25:03,586 It’s, it's a lot of fun to see this start out as something, 531 00:25:03,670 --> 00:25:05,880 a simple item that a guest threw away, 532 00:25:05,964 --> 00:25:08,591 and use it in our animal areas
