A garbage chute is a technical structure, usually round in shape, that goes through the floors of a building to significantly simplify the release of biological or technical domestic waste. Modern garbage chutes should comply with technical standards and perform more advanced functionality as compared with old, concrete garbage chutes. In particular, the chutes should be soundproof, fire resistant, self-priming and have a solid metal construction.

The main elements of the garbage chute are the barrel, the loading valves, the gate, the fire damper, the cleaning device with the automatic extinguishing means of a possible fire in the barrel, the ventilation unit and the waste collection chamber, equipped with containers and sanitary equipment.

Garbage disposal - an event, the need for which arises in the operation of any property, whether it is a multi-storey building or a private house, commercial, industrial, or residential facility. But the solution to this problem is different. But for residential high-rise buildings, the garbage chute is the best option.

To dispose of MSW in the garbage chute, special door-gates are installed, designed so that household waste can get inside the garbage chute, but cannot fall out. Gateways are located on each floor, or across the floor. Often located on the interfloor platforms. In Stalin's houses, it was also widely practiced to place the garbage pipe near the sewer riser, and the garbage door - inside the apartment in the kitchen or in the corridor. Currently, the garbage chute is almost never installed in apartments for sanitary reasons.

Gravity garbage falls down the garbage chute into a special room (garbage bin) on the ground floor or in the basement of the house from which the garbage is then sent for recycling.

Also, due to poor maintenance and not cleaning the rubbish chute, after all tenants agree, a brewing or dismantling of the rubbish chute system takes place at the entrance.

TYPES OF GRAIN TRUCKS AND SPECIAL FEATURES OF THE DESIGN

Today, the market of specialized waste equipment offers a variety of types of refuse chutes, differing in appearance, design, bundling, performance material, etc.

ELEMENTS AND EQUIPMENT FOR GAS DUCTS

Garbage chute
The trunk of the garbage chute serves for periodic batch gravitational transportation of MSW into a container installed in the garbage collection chamber.

Loading valve
The loading valve ensures the reception of solid waste and their unhindered dumping into the barrel of the chute when it is closed.

Device for cleaning, washing and disinfecting the trunk
A device for cleaning, washing and disinfecting the trunk (the KOM waste chute cleaning chamber) serves for periodic sanitization of the inside surface of the dust chute and also for extinguishing a fire in the trunk.

Baffle

The ventilation unit provides natural ventilation of the garbage collection chamber and the garbage chute and is located above the garbage chute. The assembly includes a throttle valve (ventilation flap), a deflector, an apron, a ventilation duct (a vent pipe). Ventilation is carried out through the barrel of the chute. For rigid fixation of the ventilation pipe in the opening of the roof plate, a passage unit (sleeve) is installed.

The coupling is power unloading
It is designed to reduce the load from the garbage chute to the support flange and the overlap of the garbage collection chamber.

Nozzle gate with a trunk support
Provides support for the garbage chute to close the garbage collection chamber and transfer waste from the barrel to the container through the sliding device.

Shiber
Designed to overlap the trunk of the garbage chute during the removal of household waste and sanitary and repair work.

Garbage chute container (garbage chute).
The container of the rubbish chute is the container into which the garbage is unloaded from the rubbish chute. Needed in order to create convenience when taking out the garbage on the street. It is considered normal if the garbage does not accumulate in the gate, but pours immediately into the bin of the garbage disposal.

Advantages of the chute

• Significantly facilitates the process of disposal of MSW in apartment buildings.

Disadvantages chute

• Requires constant qualified operation (pipe cleaning, daily removal of MSW from the garbage bin in accordance with sanitary standards); violation of regulations serves as a source of unpleasant odor, pathogenic microbes, insects and rodents, and serves as a reason for bringing to administrative responsibility those responsible for violation of constitutional rights to a favorable habitat in an apartment building) [2]. In addition, asbestos cement, used in old garbage disposal, is hygroscopic and absorbs harmful substances, and therefore the cleaning is difficult. Currently, they make steel refuse chutes, which are easily maintained.
• Designed for small debris, blockages often occur when dumping bulky waste.
• It makes it difficult to organize separate collection of garbage, if the trunk of the garbage chute is not intended for separate collection. In many countries, a garbage chute is provided in new homes with separate garbage collection with 2-3 loading valves on the floor, and one common barrel or barrel with one charging valve and automatic separation of garbage into various containers installed in waste disposal chambers.
