Zixtel Evolves with Bunting’s Eddy Current Separator
The Zixtel evolution began in the midst of the global pandemic in 2020, when the company changed their focus to recycling and purchased the Bunting Metal Separation Module. Zixtel Ltd have since developed a reputation for metals recovery from a wide range of waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) and waste discarded by other recycling…
Read MoreSeparating Metal When Recycling Wood
Wood is one of the most recyclable materials of all waste. Waste wood originating from well-used wooden products such as pallets and furniture is reused in furniture, in creating building materials, animal bedding, and fuel. However, both ferrous and non-ferrous metal contaminates wood from secondary sources. Wood Recyclers Association Separating Metal Contamination Problematic metal contamination…

A high-strength Rare Earth Drum Magnet separates the ferrous metal constituent of shredded secondary laser and toner cartridges at BCMY’s UK cartridge recycling operation. The efficient removal of ferrous metal protects downstream shredders, whilst also maximising the purity of the end recycled product. BCMY Ltd, based in Lancing in West Sussex, is one of the…
Read MoreWhat is an Axial and Radial Magnetic Field?
Rotary Magnetic Separators, such as the Drum Magnet and Pulley Magnet, are designed with a specific type of magnetic field. The type of magnetic field is considered when looking at any application and when deciding which design will achieve a customer’s separation objective. For these rotary designs of magnetic separator, there are two types of magnetic…
Read MoreMetal Recovery from Incinerator Bottom Ash
Burning any sort of waste produces an ash by-product often called ‘incinerator bottom ash’ or ‘furnace ash’. Commonly, this ash contains a high proportion of recoverable metal. This mix of ferrous and non-ferrous metal is recovered using Magnetic Separators and Eddy Current Separators. Ferrous Metal Recovery For one of our latest projects, we undertook extensive…
