In order to get the very best quality output products you need to ensure that the technology used for the processing of ELTs is the best available.
It is key to the economic success of your business that the output products (rubber granulate and powder, steel and fibre) are of the highest possible quality in order to get the best possible price. So you cannot compromise on the technology behind it.
The average output would be made up of the following:
has been developed and optimised for the last 25 years. All kinds of ELTs can be processed and due to a completely automated process the output is very consistent, clean and uniform. These are the key parameters for the end products.
When using BANREC technology the output will depend on the tyre input, whether it’s a mix of ELTs, just passenger car tyres or solely larger commercial tyres.
This makes it possible to recycle the whole tyre and use these new raw materials in new end products and in so doing avoid using virgin materials.
can be used in several new end products such as asphalt and bitumen modification, artificial turf, industrial rubber products and even new tyres.
The extracted steel is resmelted in large steel plants, and used in new steel products.
The fibre is used for energy recovery but there is intensive research being done to find other ways to use this material e.g. in the noise and heat insulation industry.
