I'm thinking for some time about recyclation of plastic waste (chips) after generating.
Does somebody have an experience ?

Because they aren't marked with the recycle symbol, most recycling places will not accept it. They will also be contaminated with any coolant, and that also rules out recycling. Mixing types of plastic (1.49/1.6/1.7) would also be a no-no.
It's not easy being green.
So says the rep and their site:

heh...pictures don't show for me.
I find it very difficult to believe that they can recycle plastic lens swarf & generator cuttings. I doubt the "closed loop" comment for the grindings as well.
Liquids, maybe, but even then, over time, the constant recycling of liquids leads to breakdown, mold & bacteria growth. A truly closed loop would also totally enclose the generating and grinding chambers so that there is no splash loss (and therefore out of the system waste).
I just don't believe it.
"Zero waste lab" is affensprecht (monkey talk) for the great unwashed. "Green" is the newest and latest buzzword to impress the low intelligent masses.
You're relatively close to their lab. Road trip?
I support the green movement! (so long as the green is moving into my wallet...)
Is your generator waste wet or dry cut?
