The area of PET bottle recycling is characterised by very high wear and tear on the machines. Frequent blade changes, high energy costs, poor accessibility and thus long downtimes – these are the substantial problems with which recycling firms struggle to increase the cost effectiveness of their systems. With the CentriCut from Nuga Systems these problems are a thing of the past. Optimal access is guaranteed thanks to the very compact design of the CentriCut. Energy costs are 50% lower due to the innovative...

Process control and emissions monitoring in a glass manufacturing plant is a challenge due to high temperature in the flue gas. The OPSIS DOAS system provides the glass industry with an accurate analyser that will operate with a minimum of maintenance. The OPSIS DOAS system is based on a non-contact method that uses an optical path to measure across the duct. A single OPSIS system will measure all relevant gas componensts such as NOX, SO2, CO, CO2, H2O, O2, and others.

Magnetic equipment including Eddy Current separators from Master Magnets are used to remove ferrous and non-ferrous impurities from shredded plastics and crushed glass. The segregation of Aluminium ring-pulls and bottle caps ensures a cleaner glass product for efficient recycling. Master Magnets supplies an extensive range of magnetic separation equipment for the purification of recycled plastics and glass. Substantial amounts of ferrous and non-ferrous contamination can often be recovered from these products,...

End of life TV sets and computer monitors require to be recycled to maximise the level of material recovery, and to meet the requirements of the EU WEEE Directive. CRT glass is the largest item by weight. However, because of the 2 different types of glass used in CRT manufacture, the glass fractions have to be sorted to achieve a separation of the 2 type of glass, i.e. panel glass sorted from funnel glass. X-TRACT separator is able to sort the panel glass from the funnel glass. It does it by comparing their...

The paper mill waste is the resulting from the recovering process of cellulose from used paper and cardboard. The process is carried out in a pulper that separates and hydrates the cellulose fibers, having as a result a mixture of plastic materials (about two thirds of the total), wood, waste paper, metallic material, gravel and glass fragments.

It’s the so-called Residue Derived Fuel, obtained by treating the dry fraction of the MSW that, after having carefully removed glass, metals and inert, has suitable characteristics to be used as an alternative fuel. The mix of materials are paper (less than 50%), plastic (less than 25%), textiles (less than 15%), organic (less than 15%), wood and other (less than 5%). It is mainly used in cement and steel production plants and energy production plants. SatrindTech proposes two-shaft shredders as primary...
