Systematic separation system for rubbish - includes shredding, separating, composting and metal removal stages

摘要

The separation system includes shredding stages and a stage to separate light from heavy particles. The light ones are burned to give a source of energy. The residue is mixed with sludge. The mixture is then composted, to eliminate biodegradable material, and is placed in hoppers. Ferrous particles are removed magnetically for recycling. The materials are moved between stages by conveyors.
