This facility receives the bottom-ash, that is, the remaining material after the incineration process, and sorts the ferrous and non-ferrous metals and the inert material. The metal is led to the recycling and the inert material may be used in civil construction.
We get enough ferrous metal from the slag to manufacture 16 500 vehicles a year.
Technological process:
Curing of the bottom-ash resulting from the incineration in the CTRSU, extraction of ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
Occupied area:
2,8 ha
Source of the MSW:
CTRSU
Capacity:
200 thousand Mg per year (130 thousand in a first stage)
Treatment/recovery products:
1.inert material, studied by the National Civil Engineering Laboratory (LNEC) and usable in earthworks (landfills and pavement beds), in sub-base layers of roads and as filling material for the landscaping of open air quarries or mines.
2.recovery of approximately 100% of ferrous metals and 70% of non-ferrous metals contained in the slag.
