· Municipal Solid Waste- Municipal wastes are the wastes generated from domestic activities, restaurants, educational institutions and public places. Municipal wastes may be solid (Municipal solid waste) or liquid in the form of sewage from homes (domestic liquid waste) and from industries, offices, hospitals and other places. 2.

In addition to its newest baler wire-tying system, LPWT is spotlighting an automated bagging product. The first of the two products to be featured at WasteExpo 2013 is the
· separation using the corona separator will separate metals from nonmetals. This method is highly recommended in PCB recycling because of significant differences in conductivity and electrostatic properties of the different components in PCB. Corona electrostatic separation process is known to have an eco-friendly operation and low energy cost.
