Design and use of trommel screens for processing municipal solid waste

Conference · · Proc., Natl. Waste Process. Conf.; (United States)
OSTI ID:6432926
Theoretical and practical considerations influencing the design and use of trommel screens as devices for segregating various components from municipal solid waste have been identified and studied. Reported are design considerations derived from the results of a comprehensive analytical modeling effort of the dynamics and screening phenomena occurring during trommel screening and from the results of experiments carried out on unprocessed and processed municipal solid waste under various operating conditions and using various screen configurations. 7 refs.
