The majority of organics solutions require the generator to source separate the organics into a specialized container. The reality is inert contamination will be found in this feedstock. The upfront removal of this contamination is a key strength and differentiator of the BTA\u00ae<\/sup> Process. Alternatively, some jurisdictions look to implement solutions that will harvest the organics from an unsorted, mixed waste stream.<\/p>\n The BTA\u00ae<\/sup> Process delivers appropriate processing solutions for:<\/p>\n 1. \u00a0<\/strong>Source Separated Organics (SSO) Processing : <\/strong>The hydromechanical pre-treatment steps in the BTA\u00ae<\/sup> Process are uniquely designed to remove contaminants upfront and allow for the economic conversion of the organic contents into reusable products. Inert contamination up to 20% can be hydromechanically managed.<\/p>\n 2. \u00a0Mixed Waste (MW) Processing : <\/strong>MW processing is often referred to as \u201cmechanical biological treatment\u201d (MBT). Extending the BTA hydromechanical pre-treatment front end with a third party mechanical dry pre-treatment configuration creates a flexible, integrated, and scalable MBT solution.\u00a0 The primary mechanical pre-treatment extension choices include:<\/p>\n 2.1 Mechanical Separation Trommel : \u00a0<\/em><\/strong>The purpose of the trommel is to free the waste and expose it to the process.\u00a0 The organics and fine material resident in the waste falls through the screen and onto a conveyor.<\/p>\n 2.2 Bag Breaking System :\u00a0 <\/em><\/strong>If the waste is delivered in plastic bags, a bag breaker could be implemented. Lining of the green bins reduces the need to wash them, and this method has proven to be successful in driving high acceptance and participation rates.<\/p>\n 2.3 Mini- Material Recovery Facility (Mini-MRF) :\u00a0 <\/em><\/strong>Magnetic and eddy current separators, optical sorting, wind sifters, manual picking methodologies, densification and other MRF type systems can be used to supplement the recovery of recyclables and remove contaminants.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Source separation is the typical approach to the diversion and collection of organics. The materials acceptable for source separation and digestion are outlined below. In a mixed waste scenario, these are the elements that would be harvested from the mixed feedstock.<\/p>\n The Opportunity<\/strong><\/p>\n The BTA system capabilities create an environment for the generator to utilize plastic liners in their collection containers to reduce the greatest barrier to use in an organics diversion program, the \u201cwet factor\u201d. This feature delivers industry leading participation and organic capture rates allowing users to maximize their diversion rate, measured at the landfill.<\/p>\n Patented Capability & Results<\/strong><\/p>\n The equipment that supports the plastic liner capability is the BTA hydromechanical wet pre-treatment front end. Two integrated, patented pieces of equipment, the BTA\u00ae Waste Pulper and the BTA\u00ae Grit Removal System (GRS), can effectively process the bag contents and strip away the plastic bag liners.<\/p>\n Tough To Process Materials<\/strong><\/p>\n This unique functionality also supports the acceptance of compound products such as disposable diapers, personal hygiene products and packaging where organic elements exist in their structure. The inert fraction of these types of materials is removed up front to maintain downstream product quality.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The nucleus of our bioenergy solution is the BTA\u00ae<\/sup> Process. This patented, closed loop technology integrates sophisticated wet pre-treatment techniques with proven methods of anaerobic digestion (AD). A central tenet in the flexible, modular and robust design is to strive for the diversion and best reuse of all the process outputs, including any residuals.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The process flow schematic for a fully configured BTA\u00ae<\/sup> Process based facility is depicted below. As each new plant is developed, the flexible architecture supports modifications to adapt to the feedstock, end market and site specific requirements. A combination of proprietary BTA equipment (ex. pulper, grit removal, process control) and third party equipment (ex. tanks, pumps, \u00a0biogas treatment) are utilized to deploy a project driven final design.<\/p>\n <\/p>\nMSW Targeted Materials For Conversion<\/span><\/h3>\n
