Abstract: A machine is configured to grind and/or shred a waste material and to mix the waste material with a filler material so as to dilute the waste material to a desired level, such as on a minority basis by weight. The machine also includes a blender that grinds or shreds the waste material and the filler material received from drum while mixing the materials together. Materials may be supplied to the blender by a drum located above the blender and/or a hopper located remote from the blender and coupled to the blender by a conveyor. The waste material may be rendered unusable and unrecognizable in the resultant mixture. A computer system can store the various measurements in an internal memory and/or transmit the various measurement to a remote server. Information that supports a finding of compliance with a given regulation can be transmitted to relevant parties.
