CLSU’s MRF is Now Fully Operational
The Central Luzon State University (CLSU) Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) has been fully operational since April 2025. Designed to manage both residual and recyclable waste generated within the university, the facility reflects CLSU’s commitment to environmental stewardship and sustainable campus practices. Following the recent partnership with the ASKI Multipurpose Cooperative (AMPC), waste haulers from the cooperative conducted a collection of segregated recyclable materials at the MRF on May 28, 2025. This initiative was spearheaded by faculty and staff members from the Institute for Climate Change and Environmental Management (ICCEM), led by their head, Dr. Shirly C. Serrano, together with the Physical Plant and Site Development Services (PPSDS). The collection yielded a total of 959 kilograms of recyclable waste, with papers, particularly cardboard, comprising the largest portion at 705 kilograms, accounting for 73.5% of the total, followed by PET bottles at 247 kilograms, or 25.8%. This successful initial effort highlights the effectiveness of the MRF and demonstrates the collaborative commitment of the CLSU community and its partners to promote responsible waste management practices. #SievingForExcellence #GoingGreen
