Task 4. Homework. Define a mass balance and amounts of separated waste fractions for the sorting facility which is handling MSW. Also define capacity (t/h) for various separating machines when facility is operating 16 hours in a day. The incoming MSW mass flow is 1 000 t/d. Waste treatment process consist of presorting, manual sorting, crushing, air flow separation, metal separation and cyclone. In the manual presorting of MSW 1.0% of the total mass is separated (large-size waste, domestic appliances). Table 2 shows the waste composition after the manual presorting. From the aluminum cans in the presorted MSW (Table 2), 60% can be recovered in manual sorting. The moisture content of food and garden waste is 20% before crushing. In the crushing process (following the manual sorting), the mass loss of water is 20% for food and garden waste. This means that water escapes from waste when it is crushed. Air separation separates the incoming waste to heavy fraction and light fraction. Light fraction mainly composes of food, paper, cardboard, plastic, rubber, leather, garden waste and wood. Heavy fraction is mainly composed of glass, tin cans, aluminum cans, other metals, dirt etc. Since the air separation can't separate 100% efficiently these materials, there is also materials belonging to heavy fraction in the light fraction and vice versa. In the total amount of light fraction, there is 6% of each material considered belonging to heavy fraction (glass etc.). In the heavy fraction, there is 10% of each material considered belonging to light fraction (food, paper etc.). After the air separation the heavy fraction goes to magnetic separation where the recovery rate of magnetic metals is 85 %. MSW 1 000 t/d RECIEVING STATION MANUAL PRESORTING HOUSE APPLIENCES ETC.
