  • METHODS TO SUBSTANTIALLY OPTIMIZE CONCENTRATION OF MATERIALS IN AN OUTPUT STREAM
    Publication number: 20150360234
    Abstract: A system, method, and computer readable medium are provided that monitors at least one of an input and output stream for at least one of a presence of a material of interest and a concentration of the material of interest; when the material of interest is present and/or has at least a threshold concentration, directs the at least one of an input and output stream to a waste location or path to discard the material of interest; and when the material of interest is either not present or does not have at least a threshold concentration, directs the at least one of an input and output stream to a byproduct location or path to recover the material of interest.
