A powerful pair in plastics recycling: ANDRITZ’s latest shredder and separation technology

The rising success of the plastics recycling sector has turned an environmental hazard - plastic waste - into a valuable resource. The constantly growing industry comes with increasing demands in terms of technology and quality, but also offers enormous potential for those who are ready to strike new paths. ANDRITZ has combined the latest shredder technology from its recently launched ADuro product line with an all-in-one solution for separating, washing and dewatering - the CENSOR ACZ decanter centrifuge. This powerful pair is perfect for processing various types of plastic waste, especially from household waste collection.

A major goal in any industry is to produce more and waste less. More product with fewer waste streams translates into higher margins. This same goal applies to com-munities and consumers as well. As a manufacturer of high-quality recycling equipment, ANDRITZ technologies not only reduce the extraction of primary raw materials, but also free up landfills and disposal sites to protect the environment. By separating and treating many different waste flows, raw materials are made usable again, either as a source of additional revenue or by reusing the materials within the production cycle. At present, ANDRITZ is focusing on processing of the following waste streams/applications: E-scrap, metal and special waste, organic waste, end-of-life vehicles, wood, rejects from the pulp and paper industry, plastics, as well as applications for generating energy from various waste products.
In order to meet the growing needs of the plastics recycling sector, ANDRITZ has developed a very compact recycling system in order to save transportation and disposal costs and eliminate the damage to the environment caused by burning of plastic waste. Instead, the system recovers plastics as a highly valuable secondary raw material featuring high purity. The final product - the recovered plastic - can be used for gray or colored plastic to make garden furniture and many other different items.

Die innerstaatliche Umsetzung des Pariser Klimaschutzübereinkommens - ein Rechtsvergleich
© Lexxion Verlagsgesellschaft mbH (8/2024)
Like all public international law treaties, the Paris Climate Accords rely on national law for their implementation. The success of the agreement therefore depends, to a large extent, on the stepstaken or not taken by national governments and legislators as well as on the instruments and mechanisms chosen for this task. Against this background, the present article compares different approaches to the implementation of the Paris Agreement, using court decisions as a means to assess their (legal) effectiveness.
