Municipal refuse disposal treatment and composting process dispenses with the need for separate collection of organic and inorganic waste

摘要

In a process to dispose of municipal waste, the organic refuse is separated from inorganic waste by conventional biochemical means and the associated reactions. In a process to dispose of municipal waste, the organic refuse is separated from inorganic waste by conventional biochemical means and the associated reactions. The residues are then shredded and sieved at the open site tip. This treatment increases the surface area of organic residues, providing ideal conditions for colonies of micro-organisms and the accelerated break-down of residues. The ensuing micro-organic metabolism liberates heat, and warming the refuse. The warmth both loosens the heap of particles and reduces the incidence of pathogens. The high temperatures prevent the breeding and survival of insects or rodents within the refuse, and minimize the emission of toxic gases.
