Aluminium outperforming steel for its 100% recycling nature, says recycling equipment developer STEINERT

“What's more, using secondary aluminium, also known as green aluminium, cuts energy use in production by up to 90% compared with virgin material.”

Aluminium in scrap form is recovered from any situation and is recycled to produce new products. Now, the aluminium producers require their secondary raw materials to display consistently with high levels of purity and here comes STEINERT's new EVO 5.0 generation of machines that are developed to do this job.

Steinert said: “Dry density sorting using x-ray transmission is a proven method used by hundreds of metal recycling firms around the globe. Focused specifically on processors of aluminium, these new sorting machines are used to separate free heavy metals, aluminium compounds, free magnesium and wrought and cast aluminium parts.”
