A sustainable solution for the treatment of ash- by-products produced during the energy recovery process at energy from waste facilities.
Inert Waste Recycling
A dedicated screening and washing plant designed to recover clean aggregate products from inert waste. By developing a robust process we are able to recover aggregate from a range of difficult wastes such as gully waste, sweepings, construction & demolition waste and contaminated soils.
Incinerator Bottom Ash (IBA) recycling
IBA is ash from the bottom of an Energy from Waste Power Plant and is produced during the combustion process of waste during the energy recovery process. IBA is a heterogeneous material containing a mixture of concrete, metals, ceramics, glass, brick and fused materials.
The Process
The process involves screening the ash and the use of magnets and magnetic separators to:
Recover ferrous and non-ferrous metals which will be smelted down to produce new metal products
Produce aggregate that can be used for engineering purposes
Benefits
zero waste
Recovering precious metals and other valuable resources from IBA and APCr and diverting resource from landfill.
sustainable low carbon products
With the achievement of end of waste we have created a sustainable low carbon product that is a direct replacement for low strength cementitious products.
minimises environmetal impact
Reducing the country’s reliance on imported cement products that are currently the 3rd highest man made carbon emitter.
cost effective
A cost effective solution for treatment of IBA and APCr from the energy from waste industry.
aggregate recovery
Recovering a quality recycled aggregate for use in the construction industry, reducing the need to quarry for virgin materials.
partnership approach
Facilitating collaboration and knowledge transfer between the waste & construction industries, policy makers and academia.
