“…Low calorific value of analyzed MSW, 8326 kJ/kg, is higher than values previously reported in literature for Taiwan 7568 kJ/kg [12] and China, which results ranging from 2855 kJ/kg to 6710 kJ/kg [9]. On the other hand, the highest values have been found in countries such as U.S.A 11575 kJ/kg [18], United Kingdom 10600 kJ/kg [24] or India 9999 kJ/kg [25].…”

“…Low calorific value gives very useful information about the theoretical maximum energy that could be obtained from the combustion real process since, as previously said, the latent heat of vaporization of water formed during combustion should be subtracted. Taking into account wastes characterizations obtained in this work (table 1) According to their energy content, both streams, MSW and RDF, could be used as incinerator fuels since both LCVs are higher than 7000 kJ/kg [9]. However, incineration of RDF will be more profitable than incineration of MSW because of the higher water content of this stream, gross calorific value in kJ per kg of waste is 79.9 % greater for RDF than for MSW.…”

The experimental results [8] have shown that the municipal solid waste and RDF fuel, although they differ in heating values, can be both considered as a fuel because their lower energy values exceed 7000 kJ/kg [8,34].…”

Subject rewiewMechanical Biological Treatment (MBT) of waste represents a series of mechanical and biological processes which have the purpose to reduce the amount of waste that is placed on a landfill. In accordance to the 'hierarchy of waste' defined by the EU Waste Framework Directive, waste disposal to landfill represents the least desirable option.Considering the MBT process, the input component is a Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) and output components consist of Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF), compost and possibly the materials suitable for recycling.The quality of output components depends on the input waste composition.More efficient primary waste separation decreases capacity and complexity of MBT facilities.RDF offers possibility of energy recovery from the part of such separated fractions.MBT technology does not solve the problem of harmful substances residual in MSW narrowing the application of compost obtained by the biological treatment and requiring additional treatment of flue gases from RDF combustion. Comparison of the composition of untreated MSW and RDF obtained by the MBT process is also presented in the paper. Keywords: compost; MBT; RDF/SRF; waste hierarchy Fleksibilnost MBO postrojenjaPregledni članak Mehaničko biološka obrada otpada (MBO) predstavlja niz mehaničkih i bioloških postupaka koji imaju za svrhu smanjiti količinu otpada koji se odlaže na odlagalište što prema "hijerarhiji otpada" definiranoj Direktivom o otpadu (Waste Framework Directive) Europske Unije predstavlja najmanje poželjnu opciju zbrinjavanja otpada. Ulazna komponenta u MBO proces je kruti komunalni otpad (MSW), a izlazne komponente čine RDF gorivo, kompost i eventualno materijali pogodni za recikliranje. Kvaliteta izlaznih komponenti ovisi o ulaznom sastavu otpada. Učinkovito primarno razdvajanje otpada smanjuje potrebu za MBO kapacitetima. RDF nudi mogućnost energetske oporabe dijela izdvojenih frakcija. MBO tehnologije ne rješavaju problem štetnih tvari zaostalih u MSW, koje sužavaju primjenu komposta dobivenog biološkom obradom, a kod spaljivanja RDF-a zahtijevaju dodatne postupke obrade dimnih plinova. U radu je dana usporedba sastava neobrađenog MSW-a i RDF-a dobivenog odabranim MBO postupkom.

Harmless disposal of antibiotics fermentation residues (AFRs) is required due to the risk of inducing drug-resistant via the residual antibiotics. AFRs are rich in colloidal water to be hardly removed by mechanical methods, leading to the energy-intensive dewatering. Dehydration agents (DAs) can be used to treat the wet AFRs, in which colloidal water was transferred into the hydrate of DA and formed solid AFRs-DA mixture at room temperature. In this article, the dehydration kinetics of AFRs was investigated systematically. The results show that the dehydration followed the firstorder kinetic equation and the main influences were temperature, feed ratio, and the particle size of DA. In addition, the quantitative relationship of kinetic parameters with the feed ratio and temperature were established, providing the basic data for further reducing the energy consumption of AFRs disposal.
