A Review on Utilization of Processed Inorganic Mixed Municipal Solid Waste by Mechanical Device in Manufacturing of Bricks

Abstract

Abstract: Municipal solid waste which is increasing day by day becomes eyesore and in turn pollutes the environment. The modern world is having a significant waste management crisis, particularly inorganic mixed municipal solid waste. Every day, hundreds of tones of inorganic mixed wastes are thrown in landfills, yet there aren't enough methods in the world to process and recycle them. Every day, a considerable volume of non-biodegradable waste is dumped or burnt, damaging the environment and the air. The accumulation of non-biodegradable trash in the environment is harmful to both plant and animal life. Nonbiodegradable pollutants like Polyethylene Teraphthalate pose a significant environmental burden, and recycling them is difficult owing to their non-biodegradability. The huge amounts of materials required for infrastructure construction provide a potentially major opportunity for waste material reuse. To resolve this concern, plastic waste has been mixed with clay to form brick for construction purposes. This alternatively saves the quantity of sand/clay that has to be taken away from the precious river beds/mines. The inorganic MSW is naturally available in surplus quantity and hence the cost factor comes down.
