Recycling shredder residues
- il y a 12 ans
Metals, light scrap, end-of-life vehicles and household electrical goods are recycled by shredding. This process produces two types of material: a genuine secondary raw material – quality steel used by the metallurgy sector, and the shredder residues, consisting of a mix of diverse materials.
Sorting these materials in order to create reborn secondary raw materials is a delicate operation which is akin to a specialised industrial process.
That is the challenge which the new facility at GDE, Ecore's French subsidiary, is designed to meet.
The plant was designed in-house, in line with an overall plan for sorting shredder residues to generate high-quality homogenous products.
The facility was built over the course of nine months in 2011. With its six buildings on a two-hectare site, it incorporates the latest industry-standard techniques in the field of industrial materials sorting.
The 17-million-euro facility features state-of-the-art environmentally-friendly processes.
