Abstract
The processes which are available for use in some aspects of recycling of solid materials are described. The techniques are explained with some elementary design criteria included where approiate. Size reduction equipment for use with various types of solid material is covered, including some basic principles of comminution. The methods of moving quantities of solids from one place to another during a process are included, with a comprehensive list of the types of conveyor in use. Storage of solids in bins and hoppers and the problems encountered in the removal of solids from storage and the presence of stagnant zones are noted. The drying of solids to form a process intermediate or a final product is described in some detail. Separation processes as applied to systems containing a solid phase are considered in detail. The processes which are available for solid/liquid, solid/gas and solid/solid systems are described, including diagrams and design details where appropriate.
