Features Of Electrostatic Separation of the Mixed Synthetic Polymeric Waste

January 2016 · Ecology and Industry of Russia

Application of technology of electrostatic separation of mix of the crushed polymeric waste in the field of the crown category, as a perspective way of preparation of polymers for a recycling is considered. Dependences of coordinate of falling of particles on the key technological parameters of a drum electrostatic separator and physical and chemical properties of polymers are given. Influence of ... [Show full abstract] term of burial of polymeric materials on solid waste landfill on possibility of electrostatic separation of particles is experimentally revealed.

Reducing waste emission from paper fine filtration units

December 2004

Norampac has identified ways in which it can reduce solid waste emissions from its Kingsley Falls container board plant in Canada. The unit has a Voith VPS 30 machine as its primary filtration unit with Bird M-800 and M-400 filters as secondary and tertiary units. Trials on the number one filter found that it could not function at its fourth position as the feed was too low for its capacity. The ... [Show full abstract] filter was tested as a tertiary unit and compared with the existing arrangement. Optimization of existing equipment would be preferable to the purchase of new equipment. However, further work is needed to determine the optimum combination of drum/rotary element to produce a low concentration factor. Environmental costs were reduced by more than 50% by installing the screw press to remove water from the residual solid waste emission.

Solid solution for hazardous wastes

February 1990

Solidification keeps gaining stature as a key tool for remediating hazardous wastes. The technique consists of entrapping the wastes within a solid matrix having high structural integrity, which minimizes the risk of escape by leaching. To select, design or operate an effective solidification system, the engineer must be familiar with the numerous alternatives available. The wastes can be ... [Show full abstract] solidified in a variety of substances; and the solidification process can take place directly within a drum, in-situ within the ground, in a mobile or fixed treatment plant, or spread out over a disposal area. Process details, advantages and disadvantages of these options are discussed in this article.
