ReGyp undertook spreader trials using the Super Ag 10mm screened gypsum product near Cowra NSW. The results off the spreader are substantial, with the Regyp gypsum spreading up to 19m (average 17-19), with various NSW mined gypsum products only achieving 11-13m off the same spreader. This increased spreading distance would equate to approximately $10
Gypsum improves the soil structure of hardsetting or crusting sodic clay topsoils, not only by reducing swelling, but also preventing clay dispersion. Sodic topsoil (0-10cm) usually has very poor structure – it is waterlogged when wet and too hard when dry. Sodic soil has too much sodium linking clay particles and not enough calcium. Sodic
Gypsum works on improving spoil structure in two ways. Both depend upon the gypsum being dissolved by rain or irrigation water and entering the soil solution. The first is called the electrolyte effect which is based on the fact that swelling and clay dispersion of sodic clay soils decrease as the salinity of water

The NSW Waste Avoidance and Resource Recovery Report (WARR) 2008, stated that by increasing the cost of disposal of each tonne of waste, the expanded levy provides an incentive to provide recycling and resource recovery solutions. The levy will also provide revenue which will be used to fund new or expanded environmental programs in NSW.
In 2004 NSW DECC also undertook studies to estimate the the quantities and composition of mixed C&D waste disposed at Sydney landfills. Plasterboard waste was estimated to be around 4 percent of the total C&D waste stream with an expected tonnage range of between 10,000 and 25,000 tonnes per annum. The DECC testing called anything
Gyprock & Plasterboard Waste is 100% Recyclable The ReGyp recycling solution assures that the gyprock and plasterboard waste is 100% recyclable. The recycled gypsum powder which makes up to 94% of the waste, can used in industrial and agricultural apllications. The paper with related contaminants which makes up 6% of the waste can be reused
Article - RecyclingToday - DEALING WITH GYPSUM - 8/6/2001 There is a lot of plasterboard produced in the US. In total, about 15 million tons of new plasterboard is produced each year (2000). California alone uses more than 10% of the nation’s total, or about 1.8 million tons per year, according to the state Waste
