Claim:
1. A system for fluid flow source configured to source a flow of a fluid via a cyclonic separation process; and a material separation assembly configured to receive a first material, wherein the material separation assembly is configured to receive the flow of the fluid from the fluid flow source such that the material separation assembly is able to separate the first material into at least a second material and a third material via the flow of the fluid as the first material moves from a first position to a second position; and a lifter which includes a lifter frame and a rotary lifter drum coupled to the lifter frame, wherein the rotary lifter drum includes flighted compartments, wherein the lifter drum is configured to move in relation to the lifter frame such that the flighted compartments move from an input position to an output position, wherein the compartments are configured to receive the first material when compartments are positioned in the input position, wherein the compartments are configured to output the first material when the compartments are positioned in the output position; and a suction source configured to provide a suction via a reverse cyclonic separation process, wherein the suction source is configured to receive the third material from the material separation assembly via the suction, wherein the fluid flow source is in fluid communication with the suction source via the material separation assembly.
