Sustainability and added

Sustainability and added
value
Resource
scarcity, environmental degradation, and climate change demand a new approach
to sustainable business. The
solution is a circular economy in which waste is repurposed as a valuable raw
material. For
profitable recycling, material purity is essential.
Our
intelligent technologies and services help recycling companies to
profitably produce secondary raw materials of the highest quality. Material
cycles are closed.
Sustainability, environmental protection, and profit go hand in hand.
Many materials can be recycled to create new, high-quality products.
However, the purity of the material is crucial to efficient recycling. Our
detection, separation and sorting systems remove contaminants and separate mixed material
flows into homogeneous, unmixed fractions. By doing so, they facilitate a high
degree of material quality and profitable recycling. Material analysis systems can be used to
precisely determine the purity of plastic flakes.
With our versatile range of equipment, we can install detection, separation, or sorting equipment at precisely the process stage where it can make the biggest impact on product quality, plant availability, and material recovery rates. All from a single source!
Higher material quality and greater added value: In order to recycle glass or metal economically, the recyclable material which is collected must have a high degree of purity. Our separation and sorting systems precisely remove contaminants and separate material flows into homogeneous, unmixed fractions. Recycling rates of up to 100 per cent are possible with our systems for applications that involve recycling used glass and some plastics.
Higher
throughput and minimal loss of good material:
Our separation and sorting systems offer maximum efficiency. You will see this reflected both in high rates of material throughput as well as in precision functioning that results in minimal loss of good
material. Through every stage of machine design, our
equipment is optimized for reliable system availability, quick cleaning, and
easy maintenance.
Our systems sort the following materials, among others:
Blue Competence is an
initiative of the VDMA (www.vdma.org) to promote sustainability in mechanical
and plant engineering, but also to make sustainable solutions known to the
industry. With our partnership, we commit ourselves to adhering to the 12
sustainability principles of mechanical and plant engineering
(www.bluecompetence.net/about).
The plastics industry is under pressure. Between climate change, excessive consumption of finite resources, and vast amounts of plastic waste in the world’s oceans, plastics are coming to be seen in a different light by politicians, businesses, and consumers alike. Read in our e-book about the most important factors of a functioning circular economy, especially which challenges and opportunities exist for recyclers and plastics processors.
Which building blocks are necessary for a closed-loop plastic circular economy and which important parameters there are to close the loop, we will go into in the second part of the
"Circular Economy"
article series.
Reiling is prepared to fulfill this need, offering an entire range of services from collection (full service or DIY), to processing (converting bottles to flakes), to creating carefully controlled end products. For those who will eventually buy the flakes, color and material purity are of central importance, as high-quality starting materials are needed to manufacture new products.
Foreign materials posed the biggest challenge to the new plant.
Contaminants such as ceramics, stones, porcelain (CSP), metals, paper,
and plastics comprise as much as 15 to 20% of the total weight of all
collected glass waste. To overcome this challenge, KRS supplied a
sorting system that meets these requirements.
