The SortX mobile sorting container enables the efficient separation of various materials, allowing waste to be sorted into recyclable and non-recyclable categories. This capability ensures that plastics collected from rivers can be processed to close the waste loop. Designed for mobility, SortX is compact, quick to set up, and ready for operation. At 6 tons, it is suitable for sea transport without restrictions, providing flexibility in deployment across various locations, including remote areas where waste can be sorted directly at the collection site.

The immediate processing and recycling of waste on-site enhances the efficiency of cleanup operations and reduces the environmental impact associated with transport. Additionally, SortX eliminates the need for extra infrastructure or costs for interim waste storage. With the mobile sorting container, it is also possible to test the feasibility of new, permanent sorting stations at desired locations.

Equipped with four manual sorting containers and a robust wooden floor, the container is designed for versatile use in various environments. The frequency-controlled sorting belt allows for adjustable speed settings, optimizing the sorting process for different materials and personnel.

The SortX prototype has been in operation in Kukës, Albania, since mid-June. everwave’s garbage collection boat gathers the waste, which is manually sorted on the riverbanks before being fed into the sorting container. Initial results are promising: around 30,000 kg of waste has been collected, with the SortX sorting container processing approximately 30m3 per hour. Due to the high proportion of PET bottles in the collected waste, about 80% is recyclable.

Changes in the material properties, such as residual moisture, grain shape or conductivity, can be counteracted with this automatic control technology. Splitcontrol ensures consistently high-yield rates and high operational stability. Manual interventions to correct the separating splitter can be reduced to a minimum.

Steinert Splitcontrol can be incorporated as an additional option when configuring a new Steinert non-ferrous metals separator. Retrofits are possible as well.

A laser grid is used to monitor the variance of sorted product in the eddy current separator’s discharge zone. The different discharge parabolas of the conductive NF metals and the unaffected non-conductive residue (drop) are assigned via software. By automatically controlling the belt speed, the discharge parabola of the drop proportion is always led close to the separating splitter, meaning that the sorter can always be run to deliver optimum separation.

Splitcontrol kits can be installed in a matter of hours. They are fitted on the outside of the sorting system and usually require minimal modifications to the outer shell.

Its portfolio also includes the production and marketing of foam glass gravel and Revitro (decorative glass). Reiling relies on its own expertise and state-of-the-art recycling processes and technologies to process the various recyclable materials.

The family-run company operates at 13 German and six European locations. At its glass recycling sites in Germany, Denmark, and Poland, the Reiling Group processes a total of over 1 million tons of glass. The high-quality recyclate can then be reused in almost any melting application to create added value.

Glass, especially container glass, can be recycled as often as required. In addition to correct collection, the prerequisites for using used glass for the production of new goods are subsequent processing in special glass sorting plants, such as those operated by the Reiling Group.

At the Reiling sites, recycling processes are used that have been designed to remove impurities and for colour sorting. With the proven separation of CSP (ceramics, stones, and porcelain), organics and colour sorting, Reiling constantly strives to optimize the recycling processes to achieve a closed cycle with the lowest material loss and the highest quality of secondary raw materials.

In 2015, Reiling set up the Danish recycling site in Naestved for processing hollow and flat glass. Spektrum glass sorting systems from Sesotec are used in the plant. In a step-by-step recycling process, these sorting systems first reliably remove CSP and metals. In a further step, the glass cullet is sorted by colour. The result: clear, brown, and green glass of the highest quality, ready for use in the production of new glass bottles.

Until now, the sorting of dark cullet was considered a particular challenge in the field of glass recycling. Conventional optical detection, which is used in glass recycling plants, is based on transmitted light. As soon as less light than required passes through a piece of cullet, a normal glass sorting system classifies it as opaque and therefore as a contaminant. Due to the thickness of the material and the strength of the colouring (special bottles) and the resulting opacity, this cullet often cannot be distinguished from CSP. They are discharged together with the CSP contaminants. Valuable material is lost.

The milestone in material recovery was achieved through the development of a new sensor system for the Sesotec sorting systems, which now also enables the detection of dark, opaque glass pieces. The cullet is no longer viewed using normal transmitted light illumination only, but with additional special lighting plus sensor technology (C-C sensor). Especially dark cullet can be distinguished just as reliably from CSP and can therefore remain in the material flow, as they are no longer – as was previously the case – unintentionally ejected with the CSP impurities. This proves to be an enormous advantage in glass recovery. The cullet, which is particularly heavy due to the thickness of the material, remains in the material cycle and can be used for the production of new goods. In this particular case, this has now been achieved with the latest technology in a line completely without glass drying.

The new sensor technology is also the reason Reiling has invested in the latest Sesotec technology – Spektrum glass sorting systems with a special C-C sensor for sorting dark glass cullet – to significantly improve glass recovery even further. In fact, Reiling was one of the first companies to use C-C sensor sorting in contaminated areas and has been very successful with it.

Sesotec partner KRS Recycling Systems was commissioned to expand the glass recycling plant at the Danish site. KRS handled the entire process of expanding the plant: from consulting and planning to installation, commissioning, service, and support.

To achieve this goal, the project focuses on the development of a Smart Waste Factory.

Based on technological developments and digitalization, the Smart Waste Factory concept aims to improve the efficiency of waste treatment, increase recycling and recovery rates from mixed waste streams, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the waste treatment system. An integrated digital platform will enable overall plant monitoring, control and optimization.

Andritz is currently conducting the first series of trials for ReWaste F at the Andritz Recycling Technology Center (ART Center) in St. Michael, Austria. These trials involve Andritz’s shredder technology, IoT sensors for real-time monitoring and classification of waste streams, and automated sorting systems using machine learning and artificial intelligence for precise recycling. In cooperation with universities – Montanuniversität Leoben and FH Joanneum – and industrial companies, the technologies will be comprehensively evaluated and optimized.

ReWaste F – Recycling and Recovery of Waste for Future is a publicly funded R&D COMET – Competence Centers for Excellent Technologies project in Austria, which involves partners from various sectors along the value chain – waste disposal, technology and mechanical engineering, secondary raw material utilization, recycling, digitalization and networking, and science. It consists of a strategic project and three technical areas with individual projects focusing on the characterization of waste materials, their recyclability and testing of mixed waste streams. ReWaste F builds on the successes of the previous COMET project, ReWaste 4.0 and will be completed in 2025.

It is a renewable fuel, easy to transport and store, with a high calorific value, stable combustion, low secondary pollution, and low carbon emissions. As the cement industry moves towards decarbonization, driven by legislation and greater environmental awareness among the public, it has turned to RDF as an alternative to fossil fuels. RDF also has the environmental advantage of redirecting the unrecyclable materials from MSW away from landfill, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and conserving landfill space.

While RDF is a suitable alternative to fossil fuels in cement kilns, it needs to be of consistently high quality. “The most important requirement for the cement industry is a homogeneous material with a specific granulometry, without impurities such as PVC or metal, and a specific humidity,” explains Natalya Duarte, Stadler Sales Manager for Mexico & Central America. “High-quality RDF or SRF delivers constant calorific power and has limited chlorine content, which is important for the good operation of the kiln and means that less maintenance is required.”

As end-users increasingly demand higher quality, RDF is becoming more refined and the distinction between RDF and SRF is becoming blurred. Moreover, the process to produce RDF will have to become increasingly sophisticated to meet these high standards:

“In the European Union, legislation is driving a shift away from waste incineration in favour of recycling,” says Wolfgang Köser, Stadler Sales Director for Germany, Austria and Switzerland. “We can expect that, as a consequence, chemical recycling will be increasingly used in the future, reducing the amount of good quality input material for the RDF channel.”

The challenge is to achieve the high quality demanded by cement kilns from the very heterogeneous materials left in the MSW stream after the removal of recyclables. This requires a complex treatment process. Stadler has designed and commissioned numerous RDF plants in Europe and Latin America since 2005, tailoring the sorting system to each customer’s situation, developing techniques and processes to ensure their specific quality requirements are met with their input material stream.

The process begins with pre-shredding the material into smaller pieces, which are separated by size using screening technology. The impurities are eliminated with ballistic separation and Near-Infrared (NIR) technology. Ferrous and non-ferrous metals are sorted with overbelt magnets and eddy current separators. The resulting high-quality material is shredded again to the size required by the cement manufacturer. To supply the requisite quantities of refuse derived fuel for cement production at all times, we have integrated a spacious intermediate hopper with a powerful automatic crane into the system.

The sorting process has evolved over the years: “In the past, the quality of the RDF was controlled by combining different materials at the feed, followed by screening and the removal of metals. Now NIR technology plays an important role,” says Wolfgang Köser. “At Stadler we have continuously reviewed our sorting plant concepts, and now it is possible to produce high-quality RDF even from poorer input materials. In each case, we look at their composition in great detail and select the exact combination of machines that produces the RDF that precisely meets the specific quality requirements.”

Stadler’s constant search for solutions that meet and anticipate changing customer requirements is not limited to the initial development and installation of a sorting plant: as the RDF industry evolves, it is at the customer’s side, reviewing the design to ensure the facility continues to deliver the desired results over the years. This is the case of the plant it designed and built for Breitsamer Entsorgung Recycling GmbH in 2001, for which it has made updates and conversions over the years.

Stadler’s collaborative approach has been central to the continued success of the facility: “We spend a lot of time testing possible system configurations and individual units in advance. Nevertheless, Stadler’s assessment and optimisation is very important to us in the design process, as they can draw on an immense wealth of experience regarding possible configurations and units. We also appreciate their willingness to run through various configurations and adapt them several times, if necessary,” says Dr. Wolfgang Niggl, Plant Manager at Breitsamer.

Over the years, as their requirements evolved, Breitsamer turned to Stadler again and again based on “the outstanding personal relationship and the successful collaboration, as well as Stadler’s excellent preliminary planning and expertise. The system has been running with modifications for more than 20 years and has proven to meet our requirements throughout.”

In the latest update project, Stadler has shown once again its ability to understand how the customer’s requirements have changed and provide the solution, as Dr. Wolfgang Niggl explains: “The current configuration has the flexibility to adapt to the different requirements of various cement manufacturers, and the quality of the alternative fuels is very good.”

The collaboration aims at driving circularity in plastics value chains and the automotive industry. When no longer fit for use, tires are liquefied by means of chemical recycling and then processed into base chemicals and further into polycarbonates of high purity. These can then be used in various automotive applications, from parts of headlamps to radiator grilles.

As part of the collaboration, Neste turns liquefied discarded tires into a high-quality raw material for polymers and chemicals manufacturing and supplies it to Borealis. Borealis will then process the Neste-produced raw material into base chemicals phenol and acetone, which are supplied to Covestro. Covestro can use these materials to make polycarbonates. The share of recycled content is attributed via the mass balancing approach all the way to the final products using ISCC Plus certification.

The first products based on the collaboration are already available as each party has manufactured the first batch of their respective contribution to the project. Aside from polycarbonates, the project partners may also consider polyurethanes as a possible end product, which could also find its way into parts of the interior of a car. The companies emphasize that the potential to scale up these types of developments should be considered when setting ambitious targets for future EU regulations, such as the End-of-Life Vehicles Regulation.

The robot is being used at Veolia Southwark IWMF to pick out paper, card, mixed plastics and beverage cartons, which often contain some aluminium layers, from the aluminium line leaving just pure aluminium items for effective recycling.

As part of its new strategic plan GreenUP, Veolia will use this data to make informed decisions to run the facility at maximum efficiency and monitor seasonal changes in waste composition, accelerating ecological transformation through AI and innovations.

The robotic solution is made up of a camera, a 6-axis robotic arm, pneumatics system and a compute box. The robot “picks” the item by using compressed air and a silicon gripper, then twists to face the correct sorting bin location, and then blows the item off the gripper and into the bin. This advanced technology means that the aluminium picking process can be streamlined and removes contamination from the final recyclate. The robot will pick between 35 and 50 items per minute, supporting frontline staff to increase the quality and quantity of materials recovered at the facility. As the objects pass along the belt, they are also scanned and recorded. This data is uploaded to the cloud and can be presented in the form of user-friendly dashboards.

Aluminium plays an important role in many industries including the green technology sector and is used in large quantities for wind turbines and electric vehicles, two products vital to becoming more sustainable. Improving the capture of aluminium will allow for more effective recycling to support the growing global demand for the metal.

This project is supported by The Alliance for Beverage Cartons and the Environment (ACE) which represents the top manufacturers of food and drink cartons in the UK and Europe.

The F240e has a special cutting system. Once the rotor blades and static knives are set, frequent adjustments are no longer necessary. The system is said to not only reduce operating costs, but also maximise uptime, with the F240e shredding waste with a particle size of up to 10 mm.

This new machine was developed especially for the challenges experienced when processing plastic flakes and granulates, as well as when sorting metal granulates between 2 and 30 mm. The Finealyse+ provides numerous innovations for further enhanced product purity coupled with higher throughput. The new sorting solution will be unveiled at IFAT.

Improving performance through a combination of sensors

With UniSort Finealyse+, users benefit from extensive hardware enhancements. In addition to the familiar near-infrared (NIR) and colour camera versions, there is also a sensor combination of high-resolution NIR and colour sensor. Based on the very latest NIR camera technology – hyperspectral imaging (HSI) technology – the benefits can be found in the combination of maximum special and spectral resolution. The sensor combination, including a colour camera, allows additional characteristic properties that can be identified and mapped at the same point, ensuring even more stable detection.

Stabilisation for optimum detection and discharge

Once the material has been added for sorting, it is stabilised on the high-speed conveyor belt by the Active Object Control (AOC). This enables the sensors to perform ideal detection and for the material to be reliably ejected thanks to the optimised compressed air nozzles. For the best possible sorting at all times, UniSort Finealyse + also provides an automatic white balance for calibration purposes and a split variant for simultaneously running several sorting processes on one machine. The split function allows several material flows to be sorted at the same time, or for the sorted product to be subsequently cleaned in parallel on one machine.

Sorting flexibility for plastics and metal

The diverse potential uses for this product range from sorting plastic flakes to metal applications. UniSort Finealyse+ reliably removes incorrect colours and unwanted plastics from plastic flakes. It is also well suited to colour sorting of non-ferrous metals, in addition to removing unwanted plastics from e-scrap. This all results in high flexibility and product purity with minimal material losses.

Under this agreement, three ZenRobotics Heavy Pickers will be deployed to effectively separate copper from its ferrous metals stream.

With the volume of scrap metal projected to double by 2050, the demand for efficient metal sorting has never been more pressing. However, the rising copper content in shredded scrap metal presents a considerable challenge for steel producers striving to maintain the quality of their steel products. To meet industry standards, steel producers typically require recycled steel to contain less than 0.1–0.2% copper content, without resorting to additional virgin pig iron. Conventional sorting technologies, such as multistage magnets and ballistic separators, struggle to effectively reduce copper contamination, intensified by the scarcity of manual labour for hand sorting.

Recognising the need for advanced sorting solutions to address the increasing demand for copper-free recycled steel, the Zen Robotics Heavy Picker, equipped with cutting-edge AI technology, offers precision in identifying and sorting non-ferrous metals such as copper from ferrous waste streams. Additionally, the system provides real-time reports on sorting operations, empowering users to optimise their processes and achieve desired material purities through a user-friendly intuitive interface.

By automating the sorting process, the ZenRobotics solution enables scrap processing companies, particularly those that handle end-of-life vehicles (ELVs) to reduce carbon emissions and comply with stringent regulations governing copper content in recycled steel. It also enhances operational efficiency while promoting safer working conditions by minimising the risks associated with manual sorting in hazardous environments.

A virtual plant presents one of the complete solutions for plastics recycling that Coperion, together with Herbold Meckesheim, is now making available from a single source. It demonstrates the entire process and at the same time allows a deeper glimpse into numerous key components and their functions.

Moreover, rotors from Herbold granulators will be on display in different designs for various applications. The rotor concept with the cutting geometry is a decisive reason for the outstanding efficiency of the granulators from Meckesheim.

Juha Mieskonen, Sales Director of ZenRobotics and Terex Recycling Systems stated, “The 2024 edition of IFAT marks the first time that ZenRobotics will be exhibiting as a Terex brand, and together we will present a holistic approach to waste management solutions. Our Heavy Picker gripper will be on display for visitors to see why it is the pinnacle of robotic sorting technology, and we are also looking forward to explaining how the upgraded features and Artificial Intelligence (AI) on our recently launched ZenRobotics 4.0 improves the efficiency of waste sorting operations. We invite visitors to witness effective waste management, where automation and innovation meet to drive sustainability forward.”

When applied to the ZenRobotics Heavy Picker and Fast Picker robots, ZenRobotics 4.0 brings higher standards to waste sorting technology, offering heightened safety, efficiency, and vast customisation. The upgraded AI technology includes an advanced recognition system to empower the robots to identify over 500 waste categories.

Terex Recycling Systems will build on their progress since their debut at IFAT 2022, including the installation of their first C&D Waste recycling plant in the UK and Fines Treatment line in Norway. Visitors are encouraged to visit the team to discuss their growing product range, with introductions such as the TTS-620SE Static Electric Trommel and the soon-to-launch TDSV20SE Shredder. Another highlight will be a 3D model representation of a Terex Recycling Systems C&D sorting plant, where visitors will be able to learn about modular recycling plant equipment that enhances quality and efficiency for Material Recycling Facilities, collaboratively with robotic sorting from ZenRobotics.

The company wants to introduce Reuser, a system for the recovery of used textiles.Through the use of artificial intelligence, Reuser classifies garments, identifying specific typologies such as skirts, shirts, trousers, and socks. This detailed classification allows for greater efficiency in recycling and extends the life cycle of textiles.

The Ecoflake system is a technological solution for separating plastic flakes. Using high-definition CMOS RGB cameras along with NIR technology, Ecoflake achieves detailed classification by colour, transparency, and composition of materials.

Steinert Plasmax | Libs allows three products to be sorted in one cycle

The latest development from Steinert enables separation of aluminium scrap into three different sorted products. With a high processing capacity and three material discharges at the same time, the Steinert Plasmax| Libs makes what is probably the most efficient processing of high-grade aluminium scrap possible and therefore meets all current industry standards. The novel multi-spot analysis ensures optimum and reliable detection using several laser measurement points at the same time.

More throughput and proven sorting quality for bulk material with UniSort Finealyse+

As an addition for demanding applications, the UniSort Finealyse+ complements the UniSort Finealyse for sorting fine-grain bulk material. Specially designed for sorting plastic mixes, copper scrap and heavy metal and non-ferrous metal concentrates, it has numerous new features.

The most of these are the working width, which is almost double in size, the higher throughput rates and a new split functionality for simultaneous multiple sorting processes on one machine. A core element of the detection unit is the sensor combination of high-resolution near-infrared (NIR) and colour camera technology. Based on hyperspectral imaging (HSI), NIR camera technology combines maximum spatial and spectral resolution. The additional colour camera records further visual material properties at the same measuring point and ensures stable and precise detection in combination with an automatic white balance.

Incineration bottom ash add-on for Steinert eddy current separators

Splitcontrol, the latest add-on for Steinert eddy current separators, optimises the sorting quality of incineration bottom ash and additional fine-grain applications. Changes in the material properties, such as residual moisture, can be counteracted with this automatic control technology. Splitcontrol ensures consistently high yield rates and high operational stability. Manual interventions for splitter correction can be reduced to a minimum.

Splitcontrol can be flexibly retrofitted as an upgrade for existing Steinert eddy current separators or considered as an additional option when configuring a new non-ferrous metals separator. This versatility allows users to better exploit the potential of existing systems or benefit from the advantages of the Splitcontrol from the outset.

Higher quality of ferrous concentrates and removal of impurities

The Steinert UMP multi-pole is the innovative solution for enriching or cleaning ferrous concentrates. Through the use of alternating magnetic poles, non-magnetic impurities are effectively removed, meaning that the quality of non-ferrous fractions is improved. Copper losses in ferrous concentrates can be significantly reduced in Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) applications. This technology is easy to integrate in existing systems and offers a cost-effective alternative to conventional cleaning methods.

It can also be utilized for other applications, including high-volume municipal solid waste, wood pallets, industrial and commercial waste. The new shredders come with various proven knives developed by Fornnax.

The slow-speed shafts, which produce up to 2,000,00 Nm (newton meter) of torque, allow the SR-200HD to work with the most challenging materials. This, along with a quick shafts change system, enables the end user to switch from working in one application to another.

There are different variants available for different market standards. SR200 with disc classifier will provide 60 to 150 mm output sizes to feed downstream equipment. The SR-200 HD with a Trommel screen provides output sizes of 60-80 mm, which is called TDF alternate fuel for the cement industry. And SR-200 HD without a screen produces output sizes up to 400 mm, called single pass rough shreds. Due to the design of 750 mm diameter knives and a larger shaft centre, it offers more discharge space to process bulky and high-thickness materials such as agricultural tyres, truck tyres and OTR tyres.

As one of the leading suppliers of sorting systems, Sesotec will be presenting the newly developed VARISORT+ FILM film sorter, a modular system based on the proven features of the VARISORT+ family of machines. A new feature of the VARISORT+ FILM is a specially generated laminar air flow, which enables optimum conveying of flexible packaging and films. The materials are stabilized and can be reliably identified and sorted. Another feature is the aerodynamically designed separator housing, which prevents the air turbulence that usually impairs sorting efficiency, thus ensuring efficient sorting.

Sesotec engineers have developed innovative evaluation methods based on artificial intelligence for the sorting systems. By using “OBJECT-AI”, impurities that were previously difficult to identify can be reliably detected in the material flow and efficiently sorted out by the blow nozzles. With the help of “NIR-AI”, it is possible to precisely differentiate between different polymers.

KRS Recycling Systems will be presenting the SPEKTRUM+ glass sorting system at the trade fair stand, which is equipped with a new C-C sensor system that, among other things, can differentiate even better between black glass or dark glass and CSP (ceramic/stone/porcelain). The traditional viewing of cullet using normal transmitted light illumination has been extended to include a newly developed special illumination plus sensor system (new C-C sensor). This means that glass that is especially impermeable to normal light (or extremely dark) is no longer unintentionally sorted out with impurities such as ceramics, stones or porcelain.

According to the manufacturer, Redwave Tex sorts materials according to predefined parameters and should be able to fulfil two main tasks: sorting whole garments for reuse and sorting shredded textiles for further industrial processing.

The sensor technology from Redwave Tex is designed to enable high-precision identification and sorting of textiles according to predefined criteria. It should also be possible to process large quantities of textiles quickly. Customisation to the customer’s requirements is possible. For example, sorting can be based on size, colour or material composition.

Baling wire is essential in the recycling industry: without it, it would be far more difficult to collect, transport and handle the large amounts of waste materials that enter the recycling process. However, the extensive use of wire means that recycling facilities face the challenge of dewiring the bales efficiently and safely.

Using sensor detection and measurement systems, the new Wirex measures the bales and removes the wires from single- and cross-wired bales in one pass without double feeding. The steel dewiring unit is integrated into a steel frame resistant to vibration, also made of steel. The machine geometry is designed for standard bale dimensions to ensure smooth operation.

The bales are fed onto the machine by an independent conveyor, guided by a moving push plate onto the floor plate, which keeps the bale in position. Sensors located above the input conveyor, inside the chamber and on the flap ensure the bale is positioned correctly with high precision. Once the bale is in position, combs are pushed into the bale to fix the wire for cutting. The bale measurement system ensures the cutters move in the bale correctly. When the cutting is done, the combs pull out and the wires are coiled up and discharged by a small integrated conveyor into a separate bin, ready for recycling. The floor plate opens, and the bale falls onto a conveyor placed below the machine, which will feed the material into the sorting system.

LIBS stands for “Laser-Induced-Breakdown-Spectroscopy”, a technology used to analyse materials for their elemental composition. A high-energy laser beam hits the aluminium, vaporising the material and creating a plasma that is several thousand degrees hot, which then breaks down into light emissions. Spectral analysis can be used to determine its elemental composition and separate aluminium alloys from one another with the utmost precision.

According to Steinert, the new system achieves purities of over 95 per cent. Three to six tonnes can be processed per hour, and three materials can also be discharged. Thanks to its compact design, the Plasmax LIBS can be easily integrated into existing systems.

The processing of the material begins as soon as it is fed into the innovative feeding system. A specially developed, multi-stage feed system ensures optimum loading of the conveyor belt. This is followed by 3D recognition and high-precision in-flight detection, i.e. detection immediately after the material has left the belt. Supported by kinetic energy, the material flies through the laser unit in a stable parabola. The innovative multi-spot analysis guarantees optimum detection with several laser measuring points that hit the material at exactly right angles. The plasma created when the laser pulse hits the aluminium is evaluated with AI support and separated into one of the three outputs by a compressed air pressure pulse the next moment.
