Recycling of automotive shredder residues (ASR) - clean plastics ASR


Recovering precious black plastics

Black plastic parts occur increasingly often in daily life and have therefore become a great challenge for recycling and separation technologies. In its headquarters location in the town of Penzberg in the Federal German state of Bavaria, hamos has been producing already for many years, as one of the worldwide leading suppliers of electrostatic separation technologies, complete recycling lines, with which it is possible to separate black plastics with great success into clean separate fractions according to the types of materials involved.


Huge mountains of old photovoltaic modules

Photovoltaics is already making a major contribution to energy generation and this will continue to grow, as solar energy is seen as a sustainable alternative to oil and gas. However, photovoltaic modules also bring with them a number of environmental problems. Processing the silicon they contain costs a lot of energy, thin-film modules emit climate-damaging nitrogen fluoride during production, recycling has not yet really been ramped up and the efficiency of solar modules has room for improvement.

Processing the silicon they contain costs a lot of energy, thin-film modules emit climate-damaging nitrogen fluoride during production, recycling has not yet really been ramped up and the efficiency of solar modules still has room for improvement.


Mixed plastics - separation solution already in industrial use for decades

When recycling electronic scrap, automobiles and other consumer goods, the recovery of the valuable metal fraction is usually the main focus. Mixed plastics are often the product that remains after the valuable metal fractions have been separated. As soon as these are separated cleanly and by type, these plastics can be reused for high-quality new products.


Treatment of mixed waste - Pure fractions from e-waste

Mixed plastics are often the product that remains after the metal fractions have been separated from e-waste. They are usually worthless. However, a combination of wet and dry processing methods makes it possible to separate clean, unmixed fractions even from very complex mixtures.


Reliably separate mixed plastics

Separation solutions from Hamos have been in use for decades and can also reliably separate black plastics and remove foreign matter.
