看这一段话(http://www.co.larimer.co.us/solidwaste/Rethink.htm):Until recently, those of you with curbside recycling were limited as to what materials you could recycle from home, and you had to keep paper recyclables separate from cans and bottles. This is considered dual-stream recycling. In single-stream recycling, you can mix ALL your recyclables (cans/bottles and paper) together, and you can also recycle paperboard (like cereal boxes), corrugated cardboard and office paper at the curb! Can it get any easier?

所以所谓的“dual stream”是指仍垃圾时“将纸类可回收垃圾和瓶罐类垃圾”分开存放,猜测这样在垃圾处理的时候就没有“分类”这一工序了,而对应的“single stream”就是仍垃圾时无需分开,一股脑仍在一个容器里即可。

故可将“dual-stream residential and commercial waste materials”译为“分类的生活和商品垃圾”,或者“纸类可回收垃圾与瓶罐类垃圾分开的生活和商品垃圾”。当然还可继续斟酌。

in this case, there is 1 the weekly curbside recyclables collection and 2 dual-stream waste materials.

What can 2 mean? It must mean dedicated dump bins at residential and commercial sites for paper and containers (I am guessing), picked up when they are full (every few weeks?) 这种采集方式要跟curbside collections比...

not only the term but the logic of the whole sentence is difficult to understand. the problem is 'and'. curbside-collected and dual-stream:

The facility recycles curbside-collected and dual-stream residential and commercial waste materials from the Raleigh and Wake County, N.C., area.

->

The facility recycles curbside-collected residential waste materials and dual-stream commercial waste materials from the Raleigh and Wake County, N.C., area.

This would make more sense.

1 IMO commercial recyclable waste would not be curb-collected.

Paper is collected from bulk bins, paper-shredder units etc on the site often by private contractors. That's my experience with commercial cardboard packaging recycling in factories and warehouses.

Office paper recycling - there are special bins in the office - I am not sure how it is managed. Staff cafetaria container recycling (aluminium cans, plastic bottles, glass) I am not sure about.

2 Curbside recyclables collections from city residents may or may not be dual stream. There is sorting by the householder '垃圾分类回收处理'方法 - the old way. The new way is 混合回收, either two streams (mixed paper and mixed containers recyclables '双混合物流回收处理'方法) or just one stream '单混合物流回收处理'方法all recyclables, both paper and containers, mixed together)

-> '双混合物流回收处理'方法
