CAMEC designs and builds turnkey MSW sorting plants that precisely separate the components of unsorted waste, recovering value from every recyclable fraction and minimising landfill waste.
CAMEC MSW Sorting Plant
The process begins with automatic bag opening via the patented AS450 bag opener, whose tearing action exploits the different rotation speeds of its two rotors to achieve a breaking effect and self-cleaning operation. The VD12/31 disk screen separates the material by size, distinguishing the organic fraction from the dry fraction, while a magnetic separator extracts ferrous metals.
Manual sorting takes place in an air-conditioned cabin with 8 workstations, with large windows for visibility and an emergency stop button for each operator. The sorted material is stored in automatic bunkers and baled ready for delivery to recycling plants; the non-recyclable dry fraction is recovered as SRF (Solid Recovered Fuel). Each plant is designed, sized and built to measure according to the specific needs of the area in which it operates.
CAMEC plants dedicated to paper and cardboard are specifically designed to handle a highly abrasive material that requires very powerful machines and wear-resistant tools.
CAMEC designs and builds turnkey plants, fully customised, for shredding electric cables and separating their component materials, with a process aimed at maximum copper recovery.
The CAMEC plant for RDF/SRF is designed to transform industrial, domestic and commercial waste into alternative fuels: RDF (Refuse-Derived Fuel) and SRF (Solid Recovered Fuel).
