Stamford, Connecticut-based Van Dyk Recycling Solutions, which is exhibiting at WasteExpo May 6-9 in Last Vegas, offers its positive sorting concept to customers looking to increase recovery of fiber from the recycling stream.
Van Dyk says its positive sorting strategy uses non-wrapping screens and optical sorters on the front end to “target paper early in the system” to achieve the “cleanest possible paper grades.”
The non-wrapping screens prepare the material for optical sorting, which recognizes and differentiates “all types of paper,” including cardboard and boxboard, Van Dyk says.
Here’s a video from Van Dyk on the positive sorting process.
