Technical Information
The sorting line installed at Wastecycle Ltd in Nottingham, UK is both suitable for aggregates and skip waste. They choose this design because they wanted to be flexible in the future.
The system consists of a deposit hopper, a trommel, a windshifter (with classifier), a blower (for the removal of plastics in the 100-1000 mm waste flow), overband magnets and conveyor belts.
The project was supplied turn-key including platforms, stairways, control cabinet, cabling etc.
Process information
Product : Skip waste, consisting of wood, cardboard, paper, plastics, aggregates and sand
Specific weight : 0.4 ton/m≥
Dimensions : 0 - 1000 mm
Max. weight of part : 250 kg
Capacity : 100 m≥/h = 40 ton/h
Fraction 0 - 100 mm : max. 15 - 20 ton/h
Product : Demolition material
Specific weight : 1.2 ton/m≥
Dimensions : 0 - 500 mm
Max. weight of part : 250 kg
Pollution : 5 - 10% mainly paper, wood and plastics
Capacity : 80 m≥/h = 100 ton/h
Fraction 0 - 100 mm : max. 35 - 40 ton/h
Recycling capacity: 70%
The recycling capacity can (and will) be higher since no recycling of the fraction smaller than 30 mm tekes place. Wastecycle has recently ordered an extension of the existing line, which will bring their recycling capacity up to 90%.
