Abstract: Herein proposed is a device (45) with a first module (10) for the production of a heterogeneous mixture of FORSU which, after the removal of the most coarse inerts, is dropped—by gravity—in an underlying second module (46), in which along the three chambers (47, 52, 54) in succession to the heterogeneous mixture of FORSU there are collected the further residue coarse inerts as well as the finest and heaviest inerts and there is obtained a mixture with matrix homogenised substantially in the liquid state and thus dischargeable by pumping reliably. In the device (45) the first module (10) is mounted on the underlying second module (46) through the interposition of load cells (59). With the proposed device the FORSU in the liquid state may be pumped directly in an anaerobic digestor thus avoiding an intermediate transport thereof.
