The plant, which is the first Terex Recycling Systems
installation, was specifically tailored to suit Collard Group’s site and the material which would be fed into it. Together with our distributor Molson Green, we developed a process which incorporated advanced mechanical separation that would
increase Collard Group’s processing capacity and recover products of a higher purity than what was previously achieved. The team worked within restricted space and constraints of fitting the plant inside and around the existing building, all
whilst planning the installation around Collard Group’s site works, that included the erection of a new building.
The process starts with skip material being loaded into a Waste Feeder and conveyed to a Combi Screen, which separates into 4 size fractions using a combination of 3D and Flip-Flow screening (0-10mm, 10-50mm, 50-100mm and +100mm). Over-Band Magnets recover ferrous metals from 0-10mm, 10-50mm and 50-100mm, and Air Separators remove light material from 10-50mm and 50-100mm. A Manual Quality Control Picking Station has operators working to remove any remaining contaminants from the 10-100mm heavy fraction. Following this, an Eddy Current Separator recovers non-ferrous metal from the 10-100mm heavy fraction. Another Manual Picking Station has operators recovering materials such as wood, card, and plastic from the +100mm, and an Over-Band Magnet recovers ferrous metal. Finally, an Air Separator removes light material from the +100mm.
The outcome is a highly efficient plant that is processing skip waste—a mixture of Commercial and Industrial (C&I) and Construction and Demolition (C&D) waste—to produce 0-10mm fines, ferrous metals, clean 10-100mm heavy fraction (inert), non-ferrous metals, wood, plastic, paper & card, and clean +100m heavy fraction (inert) materials.
