Material Recovery Facility (MRF) Solutions

Mechwaste Private Limited designs and manufactures state-of-the-art Material Recovery Facilities (MRFs) for the efficient segregation, sorting, and processing of municipal solid waste (MSW). Our MRF systems are engineered to maximize resource recovery, reduce landfill dependency, and provide high-quality feedstock for recycling or RDF production.

MRFs are the critical first step in modern waste management, enabling cities, municipalities, and industries to implement sustainable and cost-effective waste-to-resource strategies.


Core Features of Mechwaste MRF Facilities

  1. Automated Waste Segregation
    • Conveyor-based sorting systems for dry recyclables, plastics, metals, paper, and glass
    • Manual picking stations for quality control
    • Magnetic and eddy-current separation for ferrous and non-ferrous metals
  2. Volume Reduction & Size Optimization
    • Integration with primary and secondary shredders
    • Pre-processing of bulky items for easier handling
    • Consistent particle size for downstream processing (RDF or recycling)
  3. Wet and Organic Waste Handling
    • Dedicated wet waste streams for composting or anaerobic digestion
    • Wet waste shredders for size reduction and homogenization
  4. Material Sorting & Quality Control
    • Optical sorters, trommel screens, and vibrating screens
    • Air classifiers to separate light fractions from heavy materials
    • Consistent production of high-quality recyclables and RDF feedstock
  5. Integration with RDF/Briquetting Lines
    • MRFs are designed for seamless integration with RDF primary & secondary shredders, pre-feeders, and RDF briquette machines
    • Ensures a continuous, uniform feedstock for energy recovery
