    I wonder if they are going to run the rebar through this after it is "freed" from the concrete?

    Probably more profitable to just send it to a scrap yard and let them deal with it.
    I imagine they are after the reclaimed concrete as crushed rock.
    Never try to tell me it can't be done

    Crushed concrete makes for a base. Weigh the rebar in.

    Shred steel is $8 per 100# at my local scrapyard. I wonder how much diesel machine this burns per hour and if that makes it economical?
