Selection of an optimal set of machines for sorting and crushing municipal solid waste

\nThe article is dedicated to the selection of the optimal set of machines for sorting and crushing municipal solid waste based on its properties and accumulation rates. Considering the properties of waste and technologies for its collection, a new technological scheme for processing municipal solid waste was developed and, based on this scheme, the optimal set of machines was selected. In addition, the research conducted to determine the fractional composition of the waste made it possible to substantiate the diameter of holes in the drum screen mesh. Based on the analysis of the morphological composition of the waste at the end of the technological chain, the type of crusher design was determined and the main parameters of the hammer crusher were substantiated in connection with the technological processing. The optimal set of machines will make it possible to process the components of municipal solid waste for use in the form of secondary raw materials with the least material and time costs.\n
