Money lost in waste: How metal contamination was costing a recycling line its profits
Money lost in waste: How metal contamination was costing a recycling line its profits
An example of a solution in which we used a combination of magnetic separators to increase the purity of the output material and help improve the economics of the recycling line.
At first glance, everything was working. The line sorted plastic waste without interruptions, the material moved smoothly through the process and the volumes matched the plans. The operation was stable and showed no major technical problems.
However, when they looked at the figures in more detail, the economics no longer added up. The output material did not meet the expected quality, buyers were pushing the price down and the profit margin was gradually narrowing.
💰 What did the installation of magnetic separators achieve?
🧨 Where was the problem?
Metal particles remained in the output material, reducing its value.
📉 Impact of the problem
🧲 Our solution
We designed a combination of two types of magnetic separation to capture both large and fine metal particles.
