Maximising Non-Ferrous Metal Separation
There is an ever-growing demand to maximise the recovery or removal of metal from waste, especially non-ferrous. The economic viability of many recycling plants is based upon their ability to successfully recover valuable metals such as aluminium. In operations processing waste plastics, successful recycling is not possible without removing the ferrous and non-ferrous metal contamination. …

The ongoing backlash against single-use…
Read MoreEddy Current Separator Health Check
A ‘Health Check’ is defined as ‘an examination to determine whether a person or animal is suffering from illness or injury’, but we also apply it to the Eddy Current Separator. In many recycling operations, the Eddy Current Separator is a vital part of the process. The aluminium and non-ferrous metals recovered on the Eddy…
