in the process, financially distraught ULBs will not have to make any investments. The way forward The country's WtE industry is yet to prove its commercial viability. However, for such projects to be successful , the MSW collection efficiency needs to be improved. The industry is banking on the upcoming limarpur-Okhla WtE plants success, which is important due to the recent failures in this segment. If this project is able to generate the projected revenues and earn profits, it would attract more private players to the sector. Courtesy: Renewable Watch, Feb. 2012, Pp 20-23. AN INNOVATIVE SOLUTION IN THE RECYCLING OF CONSTRUCTION AND DEMOLITION WASTE 1 Grove CC Jaw crusher at the factory srte rn Italy 3 The return conveyor and pre-screen wrth stde dtscharge conveyor The result was on show during the Mat Expo exhibition in Belgium (Figure 1). The new Giove jaw crusher (1100 x 750 mm I 3'7.3" x 2'5.5") in closed circuit with easy removable post screen of 1200 x 3000 mm /3'94 x 9'10" (Figure 2), a pre– screen with discharge conveyor (Figure 3), a hopper with extended hopper walls (Figure 4), a highly effective over band magnet, a spray-dust suppression system, radio remote control, central crusher, but the owner Dirk Van Moer was looking for a more sophisticated solution. "In our C&D– waste there are often large pieces of steel which will lead to a lot of downtime when using a percussion crusher. This is why we prefer a jaw crusher". Van Moer started the search for a suitable solution to fit their requirements and found it at OMTRACK, a company belonging to the KEESTRACK group, as the OMTRACK crushers are equipped with the patented Non-Stop System (NSS) to guarantee a continuous production process and to protect the crusher against an uncrushable feed. If a large unbreakable piece enters the crushing chamber, the jaws will open automatically and then reset to the original setting. Van Moer uses their jaw crusher mainly at their own sites for demolition, earthworks and soil remediation projects and they have to follow strict quality guidelines for the Belgian COPRO approval. COPRO approved products can be sold as a commodity. When Van Moer visited OMTRACK in Italy they presented all their requirements. 4 G•ove CC 1aw crusher wtth extended hopper walls Conlatner to collect the Ferro-metals and tank wtlh spray water greasing system, diesel fuel pump and an optical weighing system with data transfer for remote inspection of the production capacity. "If we crush on location we save on transport and dumping costs. In addition, we can reuse the material on the spot by using the post screen which saves on commodities. Screening could be done by a separate screener but we have chosen to integrate the screen to save transport costs and space on 54
