City and Urban Solid Waste Recycling Plant
Garbage is also collected by street sweeping agencies, volunteer
cleanup organizations, and through consumers who bring their waste
directly to the solid waste management company. Once solid waste is
collected, it is routed to a recycling facility, a garbage facility
that can handle toxic waste, composting center, or disposed of.
When determining if waste is hazardous or not, realize that all
hazardous waste, whether it is solid or liquid, such as run-off, is
considered solid waste. Waste that does not fit into any of the
listed classifications by the EPA may be considered hazardous if it
meets one of these additional classifications; the waste is
ignitable, corrosive, reactive, or toxic.
City and Urban Solid Waste Recycling Plant Sorting Main Machines
| Trommel screen | An angled rotating cylinder with holes that allow waste of a given
size to fall through. |
| Air separation | Using air separating various materials. |
| Ballistic Separation | A steeply inclined bed with a perforated plate screen deck, with
alternate vibrating elements. Light fractions are lifted by cams to
the top of the bed, heavy fractions fall to the bottom. |
| Film grabber | Waste is accelerated onto a rotating drum with spikes. These hook
plastic film and let other waste drop. |
| Magnetic separation | Magnets either lift ferrous metal from the waste, or hold ferrous
metal to the conveyor while other waste is allowed to drop. |
| Manual Sorting | Employees are positioned beside the conveyor and manually remove
materials either in positive or negative sorting. |
| Others | PLC, Cables, conveyor, etc |
After sorting, all those waste materials will go to different steps
for recycling. Waste organic material can make pellet or make
power.
