Waste-to-Resources 2011 - 4. Internationale Tagung MBA und Sortieranlagen. Mechanisch-biologische Abfallbehandlung und automatische Abfallsortierung Buchkatalog

Mechanical Biological Treatment (MBT) is a generic term for the integration of a number of waste management processes such as materials recovery facilities (MRF), refuse derived fuel (RDF) production, mechanical separation, sorting, composting and pasteurising. In order to minimise environmental nuisance for odour, fly and noise nuisance, these facilities are required to be housed within a building and normally under negative pressure. The use of bio-filters is also required to treat any odour problems. The MBT process is designed to take residual or black bin waste and process it so that valuable recyclable materials can be separated out and the biomass or.compostable. element is separated out and processed through an In Vessel Composting (IVC) or an Anaerobic Digestion (AD) system.
