High-pressure extruding (HPE) is an efficient technology used to separate municipal solid waste (MSW) into wet (biodegradable) and dry (combustible) fractions. Effects of pressure, 10, 20, 30, and 40MPa on quality upgrading of the MSW and hydrolysis of the wet fraction were examined. TS of the dry fraction increased from 48.5% to 59.4% when the extruding pressure increased from 10 to 40MPa, meanwhile the biochemical methane potential (BMP) of the wet fraction extruded under 40MPa was 674mL CH4/g·VS, 33% higher than that of the organic fraction of the MSW (OFMSW) control. Furthermore, in the initial stage of hydrolysis experiment, the extruded wet fractions had lower pH and higher COD, volatile fatty acids (VFAs) and COD/VFA than those of the OFMSW control. The results confirmed that HPE upgraded the MSW and enhanced hydrolysis of the wet fractions. However, high extruding pressure as 40MPa aggravated the excessive acidification of the wet fractions.
