PREVIEW RWM 2014 MULTI-MATERIAL TWIN RAM BALER WITH WATERFALL CONVEYOR


A specially commissioned, scale model of an IPS Twin Ram Bale Tie baler with a waterfall conveyor will be the focus on the Jarshire stand. Multi-material IPS balers offer


production rates from 3.7 m/hr to 9 m/hr, said to have the largest feed openings in their class and their output of export-size bales is higher than standard two-ram balers of


the same size. Guaranteed efficiency, realistic prices and low operating costs make these the baler of choice for MRF and RDF operators. A Jarshire/IPS Dual Wire


Tying system can be added to the line as standard if required. This allows operators to bale all


their waste whether RDF or recyclable material, utilising both plastic and traditional wire on one machine. The system can be retrofitted to any make of two-ram baler. Introduced to the Jarshire portfolio earlier this year, new and refurbished scrap metal balers from Sasco represent value-for-money scrap metal recycling.


Jarshire says the balers do not


require foundations, are manufactured to exceptional quality and the range comprises Vanguard shear balers with starting power of 110kW; Biblo shear balers offering 120kW power; and Diablo shear balers with power of 250-350kW.

RE-USE SYMBOL ON CARDBOARD BOXES?


A debate was recently started in the recycling trade about the inclusion of a re-use symbol on cardboard boxes alongside the recycling symbol. Mike Sadler of Sadlers Cartons states that large producers of cardboard waste don’t always realise that their boxes can be reused once before being recycled and instead bale their waste for recycling after first use. When cardboard is sent to a paper mill or processing plant it’s converted back to paper and often ends up being made back into boxes. This not only wastes energy but he argues that “the material has a higher value for reuse than it has for recycling so large


producers of waste cardboard could see a dramatic increase in revenue if they switch to reuse”. Boxes can then be recycled


after two uses, delaying the supply of material for recycling and reducing the consumption of energy, paper and trees. Some argue that reuse might


not always be possible due to damage or contamination. In these cases recycling is the best option but for all suitable boxes, reuse is usually better all round. A further concern is whether certain companies would be cautious about their logo and brand being used by other companies. In some cases this is true and some brands are keen to protect their image. However,


many companies are happy for their brand to be associated with an environmentally friendly scheme. An environmental consultant involved in the debate raises the point that the EU has mandatory recycling targets but unfortunately no targets for reuse. Perhaps the inclusion of a reuse symbol on boxes would raise the issue and prompt further debates. Adding reuse symbols to boxes would serve to highlight the possibilities and encourage reuse. It’s simply a matter of raising awareness.

SHREDDER REDUCES ENERGY CONSUMPTION BY UP TO 50%


Visitors will have the first opportunity to see UNTHA’s revolutionary XR waste shredder for RDF and alternative fuel production when it makes its UK debut at the show.


The XR breaks the conventional


shredding mould. It has been designed to increase operators’ profitability and thanks to UNTHA Eco Drive technology promises to reduce energy consumption by up to 50%. This could save in excess of £500,000 in electricity costs alone in less than five years. UNTHA UK claims that the XR is

the most flexible shredder on the market. Achieving throughputs of up to 70 tonnes per hour, it has two distinct cutting concepts that can be configured and reconfigured as requirements evolve. It is able to achieve a precision shred with homogenous particles as small as 50mm in a single pass. “With this RDF shredder which


is suitable for untreated bulky waste shredding we can offer throughput, flexibility, precision, uptime, energy-efficiency, cost savings and noise minimisation


that customers don’t even think possible,” says managing director Chris Oldfield. “We all know alternative fuel production is becoming increasingly important. “The XR enables RDF and SRF


manufacturers to reduce their electricity consumption while protecting the safety and efficiency of their staff and ultimately improving profitability.”

Enter 308 WASTE RECYCLING


Machinex uses innovative recycling solutions to design and produce custom-made sorting and recycling technology for facilities around the world. As industry leader in the design of profitable and reliable material recycling facilities, the company offers a full range of equipment in addition to advanced sorting systems for single stream, construction and demolition debris, commercial and industrial waste, front-end processing for waste-to-energy plant and conventional municipal solid waste.


Norse has selected Machinex Industries to provide a major upgrade for its subsidiary company Norfolk Environmental Waste Services (NEWS) Material Recovery Facility (MRF). The 10-year old plant processes 15 tonnes per hour of single-stream recyclables (excluding glass) and following the installation the plant will be able to process single-stream recyclables (including glass and plastic pots, tubs and trays) at 35 tonnes per hour.
