SOLID WASTE TREATMENT CENTER FOR MITIGATION OF INFECTIOUS PATHOGEN SPREAD
Mixed solid waste is transported from a waste collection vehicle to a first room of a waste treatment facility. The first room defines an enclosed isolation zone that is configured to receive the mixed solid waste from the waste collection vehicle.

A method of preparing a fuel composition includes placing coal having a heat content between about 3,000 BTU/lb and about 9,000 BTU/lb and a moisture content between about 20 wt% and about 60 wt% in a vessel. The coal is exposed to heat and a pressure less than atmospheric pressure within the vessel, thereby reducing the coal, such that an average primary particle size of the coal is less than 1 millimeter. A binder is introduced to the vessel, such that the coal combines with the binder to yield a mixture. The mixture is shaped to yield a fuel composition.
