Municipal Solid Waste / MRF
Material Recovery Facility (MRF)
Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) refers to mixed waste generated daily by households, commercial establishments, and public facilities. A household waste MRF plant is an intelligent sorting center that integrates AI visual recognition, hyperspectral NIR sensing, and robotics technology to achieve fully automated sorting of mixed waste, producing high-purity recyclables (PET/HDPE/paper/metals), high-calorific-value alternative fuel (SRF/RDF), and organic matter. Through data-driven monitoring, sorting strategies are optimized to maximize resource recovery rates while lowering operational costs. As a "reverse logistics system," it combines mechanical, biological, and chemical methods to transform mixed waste into bio-fertilizer, recycled plastic pellets, and Solid Recovered Fuel (SRF), achieving efficient resource reuse.
SOLUTION
What We Can Do
Leveraging intelligent sorting technology, we overcome three major challenges — complex composition, low manual efficiency, and resource waste — achieving a landfill diversion rate exceeding 60%. The AI vision system performs 24/7 automated sorting, producing high-purity recycled resources such as plastics and metals while reducing labor costs by 40%. The smart monitoring platform tracks recovery data in real time, helping cities boost waste recovery rates to 45%, reducing annual greenhouse gas emissions by over 100,000 tons, and delivering a dual-benefit solution of environmental compliance and circular economy advancement for governments and enterprises.

PROJECT CASES
Project Cases
Singapore Mixed Household Waste MBT Project
- Location
- Singapore
- Daily Processing Capacity
- 600 T/D
The Singapore waste processing project occupies 1 hectare, processes 600 tons of mixed waste per day, and represents an investment of 400-500 million yuan. The process flow is: front-end sorting to recover plastics/metals -> bio-drying (moisture content <30%) -> back-end sorting to remove inert materials and classify fuel. Supporting odor control, dust removal, and wastewater treatment systems are included to ensure environmental compliance.
Vietnam Mixed Household Waste Project
- Location
- Vietnam
- Daily Processing Capacity
- 1,000 T/D
This project's pre-sorting system has a single-line processing capacity of 50 tons per hour. The process objective is to separate underscreen material (primarily organic matter) from municipal solid waste components for composting treatment, recover metals (for external sale), combustible materials (for incineration), and plastic bags and other materials, achieving a certain level of resource recovery while improving the calorific value of furnace input material to some extent.
Taiwan Yangbao 150 T/D Dry Waste + 150 T/D Wet Waste Project
- Location
- Taiwan, China
- Daily Processing Capacity
- 300 T/D
The project occupies 1.5 hectares with a total investment of 400 million yuan, processing 300 tons of mixed waste per day. It adopts a "crushing + multi-stage sorting + drying + fine crushing" process. Through mechanical sorting and optical technology, metals, inorganics, and PVC are separated. After drying to reduce moisture, combustible materials are sorted and ultimately processed into SRF fuel. Output materials include ferromagnetic metals, non-ferrous metals, inert materials, PVC, fine sand, low-value combustibles, and finished SRF, which are transported to power plants for incineration or sold externally.
