SOLUTIONS ON INTEGRATED DISPOSAL OF MANURE AND MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTES

Environmental issues around the world have become more acute in recent years. This is due to a significant in-crease in industrial wastes from various industries and waste of the population called municipal solid wastes. Re-cently, more attention has been paid to waste disposal issues, but still not enough. The main waste in animal hus-bandry is manure, and in population centers –municipal solid waste. The separation of manure and solid wastes into fractions not only increases the efficiency of using the area, but also leads to decreased transportation costs. The study of the wastes issue in the Altai Region has shown that there is a significant amount of unused manure as organic fertilizers and significant volumes of municipal solid wastes. The existing manure disposal technology provides for the removal of manure to the field or temporary storage on the farm that causes area contamination. There are various ways of organic waste disposal: thermal, biological, chemical, electrophysical, and mechanical ones, as well as their combinations. To solve this problem, an integrated approach is advisable -the use of the adhesive properties of cattle manure to bind municipal solid wastes and making briquettes from the resulting mixture. This method allows solving the ecologic problem both on the farm and near population centers. The results of the conducted experi-ments allow making conclusion that the fuel briquettes ob-tained in this way retain their shape and, in a dried state, support combustion. The technology of separating manure into fractions will significantly simplify the disposal of solid and liquid fractions.
