Electronic Waste Recycling Systems
Garb offers turnkey solutions for electronic waste plants. We are one of the leading project suppliers for E-Waste plants and we work closely with our customers to fulfill their specific needs for a customized packaged solution. Electronic waste is the fastest-growing waste sector in the world and most people think of precious metals used in electronic equipment, they think of silver and gold. But even more costly metals, such as platinum, palladium, ruthenium, gold, silver and iridium are also important elements, primarily in producing corrosion free contacts. Because all these metals are both costly and scarce, recycling them is an important process in recovering these precious metals for reuse. With the purchase of a turnkey plant from Garb you can secure your share of this continually increasing future market.
Looking from a zero waste point of view, it is clear we need to set up a plant with the highest recycling/recovering ratio. Based on upcoming regulations, the products need to be treated in a way that enables the removal of contaminants in the E-waste. Therefore our philosophy is a multi step treatment where in the contaminants are removed from the process line.
Instead of using a high speed hammer mill to fraction the waste stream, we are using a slow speed Fractioner to make sure a high range of sizes from too small to too big is avoided. By doing this we avoid a lot of fines from valuable goods as plastics and metal leaves the process into the other streams. We take care the basic rule in separation processes is followed: Small range of sizes needs to be created, to use its difference in shape and weight for the various separation technologies. Various researches have been done on the difference of recovery ratios. We found a significant difference and are able e.g. in recovering 95% recyclables of household appliances.
With a pre separation process, fridges can be recycled as well. By extracting the liquid Freon in pipes and compressors and by separating the foam, where nearly 50% of the FCW is encapsulated, the remaining material can be treated by the same recycling plant. The Freon is collected and transformed into its liquid form.
