ROTASCREEN® Trommels serve a limited range of applications that vibrating or oscillating screens can’t handle. They may be used in resource recovery to segregate solid waste in various forms including MSW (garbage), compost, incinerator ash and construction debris, or in mining and aggregate operations for scrubbing rock and sand. Cost per ton-hour of capacity is high, compared with conventional screening machines. Screening drum diameters range from 4’ to 10’, and lengths from 6’ to 70’. Distinguished from low-end standardized designs, each ROTASCREEN is customized to its application, choosing from a variety of options in construction and power transmission.
Request your copy of The Place of the Trommel in Resource Recovery Paper as published in the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, written by Triple/S Dynamics' Jeff Sullivan, Jim Sullivan and Rodgers Hill.
This paper describes the applications of and specifications for trommels as used in various waste processing and resource recovery operations. It provides system design engineers with general guidelines and rules-of-thumb useful in defining performance requirements, as well as creating design and construction specifications for trommels being used in areas such as raw MSW processing, classifying C&D debris, sorting for MRFs, screening mass-burn incinerator ash, and compost processing. Additionally, the paper compares the trommel to alternative screens, such as the vibrating and disk screens.
