Redoma Recycling introduces Electrostatic Separation System

The Swedish company Redoma Recycling AB has expanded its product range with the recent release of the cost-efficient Electrostatic Separation System (ESS), which is available in six different sizes, depending on capacity requirements. The ESS can separate residual fine copper (less than 0.1 millimetre) in plastic scrap with close to 100% purity, the company says.

The capacity of the ESS plants range from 150 to 1,350 kilograms per hour, which corresponds to an infeed capacity of mixed copper cable of 250 to 2,200 kilograms per hour. The volume levels cover the range of Redomas’s cable recycling plants. Larger electrostatic separators with capacity up to 2,000 kilograms per hour also are available on request.

The ESS was first introduced at the IFAT 2016 in Germany.

“The ESS was a big success at IFAT in Munich. Our visitors were impressed by the effectiveness and output quality of the system, and were very surprised of the modest price,” says Simone Lorenz Sjödahl, Redoma Recycling AB sales and marketing manager. “We also noticed the increased interest in cable recycling in general. The small Redoma systems were most popular among visitors from Eastern European countries, while the larger Eldan plants were most interesting among American customers.”

On 1 January 2016, Eldan Recycling acquired Redoma System from Retech. Eldan is now the largest manufacturer of equipment for cable recycling. Together, the companies have more than 90 years’ experience in cable recycling.
