Experimental analysis the compression and shear characteristics of municipal solid waste in hydraulic compactor machine for energy conversion

In last few years, municipal waste generation and regulating are common problems forall over worldcountries. Conversions of waste to energy technologies arecreating manyend-products like electricity, thermal energy, fertilizer and biogas etc. Due to this, compression of solid waste has become compulsory to save the space in garbage carrying tuck, which is also known as hydraulic compactor machine. Hydraulic compactor machine is a garbage carrying compact truck after Compressing the garbage up to 50 to 60 percent more than the capacity of truck of municipal solid waste (MSW). Solid waste contains different component, high compressibilityfactor, and more water content. This study has been carried out with the municipal solid waste. The unpredictable compression mechanical characteristic varies with the simulation of solid waste compression process. The process shows the compression and shear characteristic analysisfor compressing garbage. Experimental analysis of the mechanical properties of solid waste, animportant test instrumentfor shear test and compression test was designed. Total fourteen tests on solid waste wereconducted as pe the designed test instrument and themodel parameters by analyzing testing data. At last, the defined characteristicstests were simulated ontested model and designed model factors werejustified. This paper gives us information for the mechanical behavior of garbage compression in hydraulic compactor for energy generation process.
