Dense Medium SeparationModel Metals -Automobile and Industrial Waste - ASR

SHARE
Since 1991, ESR International LLC has applied its bi-directional dense medium separation technology to the recycling of automobile and industrial waste. For many years ESR’s principle client in this regard has been the Galloo Group. At first the Galloo staff was not convinced that a carrot separator could compete with the classical dense medium separators on the market at that time. So they set up a trial on <12mm automobile shredder residue, running half of the test material through a conventional Wemco drum and the other half through this modified carrot separator.

The results here were quite dramatic: the Wemco drum showed 15% misplaced material (either floats in sinks or sinks in floats), whereas the ESR separator showed less than 0.1% misplaced material. Since the ESR drum was approximately 150 times more accurate than the Wemco drum, Galloo never looked back. This aggressive and forward-looking company went on to set up four of the largest and most profitable recycling centers in the world: one at Halluin (France), two in Menen (Belgium), and a final one near Charleroi (Belgium).
