WASTE RECYCLING


Are you looking to produce an SRF spec material? Then you need a Neuenhauser star screen


The production of SRF is becoming more and more popular in the UK market and various companies are looking at ways of bettering the process by which they produce SRF (Solid Recovered Fuel). Normally the process involves a shredder line, trommel line or flip flow line. Whilst this is efficient to a certain degree, the achilles heel can be the trommel or flip flow due to a lack of separation efficiency and throughput.


This problem can be easily rectified with the addition of a Neuenhauser star screen. Over the years we have designed a specific star for the screening of SRF and RDF. Star screens are well known for their high output and ability to separate materials much more efficiently than a trommel screen or flat screen due to the spinning nature of the stars, thereby not relying on gravity for the material to fall through a designated hole size. In addition the material size passing through


the star screen can be increased or decreased by simply speeding up or slowing down the stars.


This does away with having to keep spare drums or screen mesh on site.
