Incineration bottom ash recycling line ensures ferrous and nonferrous metal recovery and sorting into fractions. Problem description: Solving the problem of overfilled landfills, reducing the volume of waste disposal is a crucial task for municipal solid waste management industry. Waste incineration plants or waste-to-energy plants (WTE) can neutralize and dispose of municipal solid waste, simultaneously generating heat and electricity and receiving residues in the form of bottom ash and fly ash. Bottom ash makes up 20-30% of the total mass of incinerated waste, of which steel and ferrous metals account for up to 10-12%, and nonferrous metals for up to 2-5%, of which 2/3 is aluminum. The percentage of ferrous and nonferrous metals in the ash depends on MSW composition and applied process. Ferrous and nonferrous metals do not lose their valuable properties after incineration and are successfully reused at refineries and smelters. The mineral fraction is used in construction and road building industries. More and more countries impose a ban on disposal of waste, which includes valuable recyclables (ferrous and nonferrous scrap). Based on implemented laboratory tests ERGA specialists developed a process solution for complex processing of incineration bottom ash in accordance with the Customer specifications. Automatic turnkey complex solution ERGA implemented a full range of services from design to installation and commissioning of IBA recycling line on the territory of the Customer's landfill.
