Description

The logs arrive at the chippers, where with a deafening roar, they are reduced to millions of chips the size of dominoes. A gradually rising belt carries the endless stream of chips up, up, more than an eighth of a mile to the storage bins. An 8500 cubic foot bin holds enough chips for one eight-hour shift for each digester.
