Resource Recovery Technology for Municipal and Rural Solid Waste: Classification, Mechanical Separation, Recycling, and Transfer is a comprehensive guide that delves into the practical aspects of recycling solid waste, aiming to maximize pollution control and resource recovery. It encompasses a wide range of topics, from source characterization to the recycling of end products, and covers various stages of municipal and rural solid waste management.

The book begins by discussing source classification models, which are essential in determining the appropriate treatment and recycling methods for different types of solid waste. It then explores solid waste treatment and resource recovery, including technologies such as waste stabilization, composting, and incineration. Integrated mechanical separation and parameter optimization are also discussed, highlighting the importance of efficient and cost-effective waste processing.

The collection and transfer of classified domestic solid waste are also covered in detail, emphasizing the importance of proper waste management practices to ensure environmental sustainability. The book goes into significant detail on each stage of the process, including separation technologies based on particle size, material density difference, optical, electrical, and magnetic effects of materials. It also discusses the preparation of plastic composites and the production of composite boards with organic waste from domestic solid waste.

A thorough case study of success in solid waste management using these techniques is included as an example of the application of these technologies. The book is written for solid waste engineers, environmental scientists, academics, and students in waste management, providing them with a comprehensive understanding of resource recovery technology and its practical implications.

By implementing these techniques, municipalities and rural areas can effectively manage their solid waste, reduce pollution, and maximize resource recovery, contributing to a more sustainable and environmentally friendly future.
