The University of Birmingham has purchased a laboratory-sized Eddy Current Separator and Drum Magnet modular system from Bunting-Redditch. Students and professors undertaking research at the university will use the new Metal Separation Module to determine the recovery and recycling capabilities of a wide range of materials. The laboratory Metal Separation Module comprises of a Vibratory…
Read MoreGlobal Waste Challenge
The global waste problem has never been more acute. There is a continued drive towards a throw-away society, encouraging consumers to purchase newly manufactured goods. This creates unprecedented amounts of waste, much of which cannot be reused or recycled. The issue of waste is now a headline story across the planet. Through television programmes and…
Read MoreBattery Recycling Focus at International Congress
The 24th International Congress for Battery Recycling (ICBR 2019) takes place in Lyon, France (September 18-20 2019). With metal separation being a key stage in the battery recycling process, Bunting is attending and exhibiting at the congress (booth 12). ICBR is the international platform for presenting the latest developments and discussing the challenges faced by…
Read MoreFocus on Metal Recovery at RWM 2019
The focus on the Bunting stand at RWM 2019 (11 & 12 September, NEC, Birmingham, UK) is recovering and separating metals from secondary ‘waste’ materials. Working production-sized metal separators separating metals are on display on stand P1, right by the entrance to the show. Recycling has never had a higher profile. The ongoing backlash against single-use…
Read MoreEddy Current Separator Health Check
A ‘Health Check’ is defined as ‘an examination to determine whether a person or animal is suffering from illness or injury’, but we also apply it to the Eddy Current Separator. In many recycling operations, the Eddy Current Separator is a vital part of the process. The aluminium and non-ferrous metals recovered on the Eddy…
