A lot of solid waste is generated daily into the environment due to the increasing numbers of the population. This has resulted in major problems on how to effectively manage the municipal solid wastes to avoid implications associated with its release into the environment. This has led to the development of MSW treatment plant for sale that will help in combating such wastes. Take manual egg carton making machine to make egg trays when you recycling paper waste.
Composition of Municipal Solid Waste
Waste from industries including chemicals and paints.
Construction wastes such as sand and bricks.
Metallic wastes.
Plastic wastes.
Organic wastes including paper, wood and agricultural wastes.
Beston Machinery Co, Ltd. manufactures different models to deal with these waste. Get the egg tray machine price in Turkey.
Implications of Municipal Solid Wastes in the Environment
I. Dumping of solid wastes into groundwater systems or as a result of leaching of contaminants into groundwater results in contamination of water posing health problems to humans and animals using the water.
II. Emission of gases such as methane as a result of decomposing organic wastes results in air pollution.
III. Increased incidence of diseases which result from decomposing organic materials that act as breeding grounds of disease-causing microorganisms. This results in health risks.
IV. Accumulation of solid wastes around the streets can result in clogging of sewage drains resulting in flooding.
The MSW treatment plant for sale can separate the solid wastes depending on the type of waste which can then be recycled into useful products or can be disposed of.
Components of a Municipal Solid Waste Treatment Plant
• Auto feeding system that feeds solid waste into the treatment machine automatically. Get a right machine from Beston Company Henan.
• Bag braking system that will break large garbage containing bags.
• A conveyor belt that will uniformly spread the waste in the treatment machine.
• A rotary screening machine that is used separate large materials of 50mm diameter from smaller materials of less than 50mm diameter.
• A PLC system that monitors the whole process of treatment of solid waste.
• A winnowing system that employs different principles such as the gravity method, cyclone separation method and the volume method to separate different wastes according to density.
• A magnetic separation system that is used to separate metallic wastes by using the principle of magnetism where metallic materials get attracted to the metallic separator.
• A manual sorting system that requires an operator to separate large solid wastes manually by hand picking.
• An automated packing system that packs different solid wastes after separation depending on the raw materials to allow for recycling or dumping.
Treatment of Municipal Solid Waste
- Recycling
After separation, the solid waste can be recycled into useful products such as;
• Manure that goes through the process of composting of organic materials that constitute the municipal solid waste.
• Bio oil obtained by recycling plastic waste by the process of pyrolysis. See pyrolysis plant manufacturers.
• Steel products obtained by smelting of the metallic solid wastes.
• Bricks for use in the construction industry obtained from stone and sand.
Solid waste that cannot be recycled is disposed of in dumping sites by use of different methods that include;
• Landfills that involve digging of a pit underground and the waste is then dumped in and covered. However, this allows chemical waste to leach into groundwater causing contamination.
• Sanitary landfills that are better than landfilling by preventing leaching since the pit is lined by either plastic or clay which hinder leaching of chemical contaminants into groundwater.
• Incineration where the solid waste is burnt in furnaces but this is associated with the production of poisonous gases into the air resulting in pollution.
Advantages of a Municipal Solid Waste Treatment Plant
• It is a cheap process of reducing environmental pollution.
• The waste separated can be recycled into useful products.
• The MSW treatment plant for sale does not occupy a lot of space and thus making it cheap.
• It is efficient as most of the processes are automated.
