Abstract
At present, processing and recycling of municipal solid waste (MSW) has become more relevant in our country and the world at large. This problem concerns large towns and cities, where every year millions of tons of all kinds of fractions of household waste are produced. Disposal or recycling of solid waste is an environmental issue, but it is associated with the solution of complex technical, energy and economic challenges. The purpose of this study is to identify the advantages and disadvantages of modern methods of processing and disposal of MSW with the prospect of developing and creating a device for recycling MSW taking into account modern approaches to energy saving and environmental protection. The main results of the study are to create a simple, reliable and technically sound method of MSW disposal to obtain additional energy. The significance of the results obtained for the construction industry is the design of a device for the disposal of solid waste with the production of solid combustion products and further their use as building materials and products for various purposes. Because of the technological process of MSW processing, it becomes possible to generate some returns through use of resulting thermal energy for electricity production.
Highlights
The increasing volume of municipal solid waste demands acceptance of urgent measures for their removal and elimination from territories of settlements
Today burial of municipal solid waste (MSW) for the present is the main way of their utilization
During the operation of similar units, certain requirements to composition of initial raw materials are necessary and there is a rigid dependence of technological processes on quality of MSW
Summary
The increasing volume of municipal solid waste demands acceptance of urgent measures for their removal and elimination from territories of settlements. Processing of MSW are the complex problem demanding big money and new technologies. The main problem for the years is search of effective ways of processing of MSW. At many enterprises and institutions, old technologies prevail and in settlements the waste having the increased danger to the population collects. Burial of this waste does not solve a problem of their neutralization; it only shifts the solution of this problem on the near future [10,11,12,13,14]
