Method and apparatus (100) for transforming organic and inorganic solid urban waste into aggregates, comprising an extruding machine connected to a reactor. The extruding machine is formed by an extrusion cylinder (103) through which a piston circulates (104) inside an extrusion cavity (106), which comprises three sections (107, 110, 111) and is fed with a parget obtained after pre-processing the waste. The end (115) of the third section (111) is connected to the reactor (112) through an opening (114). The reactor's longitudinal shaft is formed by a rotatory steel shaft (116) in which some steel blades are arranged (108), whose ends play the roles of cutting, hammering, punching and hydraulic helix as they rotate. Between the end of the blades and the wall of the reactor, there is a clearance of more than 0.1 mm of thickness. The reactor has a discharge valve (300) to discharge the parget present in the boundary area through some openings (304), once it has been processed by a series of pressure, vibration energy and decompression cycles.

The disclosure features methods of forming composite materials, and the composite materials formed by such methods. The methods include forming a mixture that includes a binder material and a filler material, and applying a pressure of at least 10 MPa to the mixture to form the composite material, where the composite material thus formed includes less than 9% by weight of the binder material, less than 18% by volume of the binder material, or both, and has a flexural strength of at least 3 MPa.

The present invention deals with development of a novel process for manufacturing moisture resistant glossy finish hybrid green polymeric composites with variable density in range of 0.2-1.68 g/cc, low water/moisture absorption in the range of 0.1-1.3%, tensile strength and tensile modulus in range of 6.5-105 MPa and 250-6850 MPa, respectively and to the best of our knowledge the fabricated hybrid green composites has not yet developed universally using different types of industrial wastes particulates. Moreover, hybrid composites developed using industrial wastes, natural fibres and epoxy/polyester/polyurethane polymers is a unique materials and have multifunctional applications in wider spectrum as an alternative to wood, synthetic wood, wood plastic composites, screen printing sheet, plastic, fibre and glass reinforced polymer products, including tin sheet.

A composition that may include a resin, plastic aggregate, plastic fines, and optionally fly ash. The plastic aggregates and plastic fines may be formed from recycled plastic. The composition may be utilized to repair damaged surfaces, including damages concrete surfaces. The composition may further be used in pre-formed structures. The pre-formed structures may include panels that are assembled to form an upright enclosure, such as a shelter.

A method for preparing ceramsite by using municipal sludge as raw material, including the following specific steps: drying; preparing ingredients including raw sludge, fly ash, kaolinite, steelmaking slag, zeolite, hematite, calcareous shale, waste incineration fly ash, Fe.sub.2O.sub.3, waste glass, calcium carbonate, sodium lauryl sulfate, and sodium benzoate; mixing and stirring uniformly, and putting the stirred materials into a granulating machine for granulation; drying and preheating the material pellets after granulation, and then quickly transferring to a sintering device for first sintering at a low temperature and then sintering at a high temperature; crushing large chunks of the cooled materials; and separating and screening the crushed materials. The method of the present invention reduces the generation of the large chunks of the cooled materials in the obtained ceramsite, thereby reducing the subsequent crushing work and saving energy consumption accordingly.

A filler material includes a combination of a cement and a solid waste. The solid waste is in a proportion of about 6% up to about 94% of the filler material. The filler material can be used to strengthen the stability of landfills.
