Mechanical-biological waste treatment (MBT)
is an efficient and comparatively cheap way to recycle components of the
residual waste and to reduce organic input into landfill. In Germany more than 50 MBT plants with an
annual treatment capacity of more than 5,600,000 t per year are in
operation. In Austria and Italy MBT is also a wide
spread technique and it is going to become a very important waste
management option in many other countries. In a time of strongly increasing
demand for material resources, extraction of recyclable materials from
waste is becoming more and more important.
The
International Symposium MBT focuses on MBT and additionally on automatic
waste sorting technology as the bridge between waste management and
recycling industry. Having participants from 37 countries, the previous
International Symposium MBT & MRF 2007 became the internationally most
recognised conference on MBT & MRF
On three days experts from 20 countries
will present their practical experiences and new developments.
1st day: general topics, strategies,
different waste treatment technologies
2nd day: mechanical- biological waste
treatment
3r day: processing of refuse derived fuel
(RDF), sorting of recyclables, waste analysis
Each presentation can be heard in English,
French, German, Spanish and Italian language due to simultaneous
translation. With participants from 37 countries, he preceding conference
held in 2007 has already distinguished itself as the internationally
leading conference on these topics.
The first day begins with reports on waste
treatment experiences in different countries. This is followed by the waste
strategy session, concerning topics like:
·
Decision for mechanical-biological waste treatment and/or
incineration
·
The future of waste management: do we still need waste-incineration?
·
Will there be still mechanical-biological waste treatment in 20
years?
·
Is plasma technology suitable for the treatment of municipal solid
waste (MSW)?
·
Risk-analysis for land application of MSW compost
On the second day, new techniques of
mechanical- biological waste treatment and extension and optimisation of
existing plants will be the main topics. All kinds of plants will be
considered. A special aspect will be fire-fighting in recycling plants.
The third day is concerned mainly with
topics related to sensor based sorting and waste analytics. After
presentations on the topic of integration of this technique in MBTs and RDF
processing, a session about sensor based sorting of recyclables will
follow. At the end, presentations will be carried out which are related to
material flow analysis (mass- balancing) as well as analysis of waste
properties. Methods of different European countries will be compared and a
quick test for determination of the degree of biological stabilisation will
be presented.
On the 15th of may, two excursions are
offered that head to an anaerobic MBT and a RDF co-generation plant
embedded in a paper factory. On the exhibition taking place parallel to the
conference, prominent companies from the area of waste treatment will
present themselves.
