The recycler (sometimes referred to as the grinder) can be found in disposals. It converts metal and glass objects to metal and glass sheets at varying efficiency. It also destroys objects that cannot be recycled.

If a live person or creature enters the recycler it shuts off briefly and then engages again a few seconds after saving those who decide to use disposals as a from of transit. However, if you decide to emag your recycler it should do a fairly decent job at instagibbing live clowns people animals.

If the conveyor is turned on, any metal or glass sheets expelled by the recycler is picked up by the stacking machine and collected until there is a stack of 10 metal sheets or 10 glass sheets. At which point the stack is expelled (to the left) from the stacking machine and the sheets are left for the next cargo technician or janitor to pick up.

Note: The interior door needs to be closed otherwise the sheets will enter disposals over and over again.

Basic items like sheets, rods, and floor tiles, are recycled with close to 100% proficiency (maybe more like 98% or a little less) with the basic recycler and it seems everything else is coded to recycle at about 25% efficiency.

Efficiency should be improved with the RPED but testing should be done to be sure.
