A microwave plasma gasification and recycle integrated system for domestic garbage. The system is fixed in a garbage truck compartment with a garbage inlet, and includes a closed chain-plate type feeder, a shredding machine, and a closed magnetic separator which are connected in sequence. The magnetic separator is further separately connected to a microwave plasma gasification furnace and a metal recycle tank. The microwave plasma gasification furnace is further separately connected to a stink processor, a plastic residue recycle tank, an integrated sewage treatment device, and a residue smashing machine. The stink processor is connected to a gas recycle tank. Both the residue smashing machine and the integrated sewage treatment device are connected to an aerobic fermentation tank. The aerobic fermentation tank is connected to a decomposed material recycle tank by means of a decomposed material forming and screening machine.

An apparatus for processing material in connection with a pneumatic material conveying system includes a waste container/separating device, into which material is configured to be conducted from a conveying pipe of the pneumatic material conveying system via an inlet aperture and which is configured to be connected to a partial vacuum generator. The apparatus further includes a press device/compactor device, which is arranged to act on the material (w) conducted into the waste container/separating device, via at least one aperture formed in the container, and that at least one wall that is transverse with respect to the input direction of the material is arranged in the container space of the waste container/separating device, which wall is configured to guide the material into the operating range in the container space of the compressor of the press device/compactor device.

A refuse vehicle includes a chassis, an energy storage device, a body, a first electric power take-off system, and a second electric power take-off system. The energy storage device is supported by the chassis and is configured to provide electrical power to a prime mover. Activation of the prime mover selectively drives the refuse vehicle. The body is supported by the chassis. The first electric power take-off system is coupled to at least one of the body and the chassis, and includes a first motor that is configured to drive a helical gear pump to convert electrical power received from the energy storage device into hydraulic power. The second electric power take-off system is coupled to at least one of the body and the chassis, and includes a second motor that is configured to drive the helical gear pump to convert electrical power received from the energy storage device into hydraulic power.

A leaf collection vehicle utilizing a vehicle body from a refuse collection vehicle having a receiving hopper, a storage compartment, a tailgate assembly, an operator cab and a packer mechanism for transferring refuse from the receiving hopper to the storage compartment, the refuse collection vehicle body being transformed into a leaf collection vehicle by removably installing a fan assembly within the receiving hopper, the fan assembly providing suction for gathering leaves, a suction hose removably attachable to the fan assembly for collecting and transferring leaves initially to the storage compartment and then to the receiving hopper, and a boom member for holding the suction hose, the boom member being operable from the cab compartment of the vehicle and being movable from a storage position along a side of the vehicle body to an operative position for gathering leaves.

A waste packing device includes a chute, a packer blade, a rod, and a drive unit. The chute includes an opening. The packer blade is configured to translate back and forth in the chute. The rod is pivotally coupled to the packer blade. The drive unit is pivotally coupled to the rod and operable to move the packer blade back and forth in the chute to push waste through the opening of the chute.

An item of equipment for separating bagged waste has a hopper, separation means for separating the waste, a scanner for classifying the waste, elements for opening the bagged waste, chutes with gates, classification means, an artificial vision camera, and a plurality of shredders. Thus, the shredders are able to shred the waste subsequent to the classification thereof by type of polymer and color, thanks to the artificial vision camera. The equipment enables the individual separation of the bagged waste for the subsequent treatment thereof, as frequently some bags of waste are adhered to others.
