Municipal Solid Waste Sorting Machine
This complete municipal solid waste (MSW) utilization solution adheres to the principles of reduction, harmlessness, recycling and energy recovery, integrating waste into a full-line system for comprehensive resource utilization. Through automatic sorting, MSW is classified into recyclable metals and high-calorific-value (up to 5,000 kcal) fuels applicable to industrial boilers, waste incineration and gasification power stations.
Municipal Solid Waste Sorting Line Components
- Chain feeder: Feed the materials uniformly for a smooth process. Compatible with forklift loading.
- Bag breaking system: Features internal blades to break bags without shredding the contents.
- Trommel screen: Sorts materials by size with customizable screen apertures (3-7cm).
- Iron separator: Extracts magnetic materials such as iron.
- Air sorting machine: Utilizes positive and negative pressure with an adjustable volume; sorting rate reaches 95%.
- Manual sorting table: For manual recovery of useful materials or robotic arm integration.
- Baling machine: Compresses combustible materials into blocks for further processing.
Sorting Process Flow
Raw waste is transferred via grab bucket to a feeder and then to a 50mm drum screener. It is split into undersize (<50mm, organic) and oversize (>50mm, plastics/stones) fractions. After magnetic separation, undersize residues go to temporary storage, while oversize materials enter an air separator. Heavy materials are manually sorted into combustibles (plastics/textiles) and non-combustibles (stones for bricks/roadbeds). Light materials are baled for packaging.
Our facilities cover a total area of 150 acres, supported by nearly 400 employees and a 50-person dedicated after-sales service team. With an independent technology research and development center, we design and implement complete solutions for domestic and foreign customers.

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of waste can this system process?
The system is designed to sort municipal solid waste (MSW), household waste, industrial waste, landfill waste, urban waste, and construction/demolition waste.
What is the sorting efficiency of the air sorting machine?
The air sorting machine uses adjustable positive and negative pressure, achieving a high sorting rate of up to 95%.
Can the trommel screen be customized?
Yes, the trommel screen size is customizable, typically between 3-7cm, to meet specific material separation requirements.
What can be produced from the sorted waste?
Organic matter can be turned into fertilizer; plastics and paper can be recycled or turned into RDF fuel; metals are recycled; and stones/concrete can be used for road tiles or building aggregates.
Does the RDF fuel meet industrial standards?
Yes, the RDF produced features high density, stable combustion, and up to 5,000 kcal calorific value, ensuring safe and continuous operation for industrial boilers and power stations.
What is the daily processing capacity range?
We offer different models with capacities ranging from 100 tons per day up to 500-1000 tons per day depending on the configuration.
