BIR World Recycling Convention Week 2020 E-Scrap Committee: Excessive Restrictions Can Obstruct Path to Increased Circularity
The growing volume of regulation surrounding e-scrap was creating the unintended consequence of erecting barriers to recycling, claimed several contributors to the BIR E-Scrap Committee webinar on October 16. In his final meeting as the Committee’s Chairman, Dr Thomas Papageorgiou of Greece-based Anamet SA argued that excessive restrictions on many of the commodities contained within […]
Enhancement of Recycling of Steelworks Remnants by the SCARABAEUS®
Most metallurgical processes are characterized by a gas flow stream through a material bed. Thus fine particles are carried away and have to be filtered after the metallurgical devise. Every modern metallurgical plant, no matter if based on the blast furnace process, oxygen steelmaking process, electric arc furnace, or direct reduction process consists of filters […]
Company Plans to Realize Rare-Earth Separation Technology
Canada-based Innovation Metals Corp. (IMC) has received funding support for the Phase-One commercialization of its “RapidSX” rare-earth element (“REE”) separation technology from its joint venture partner Hexagon Energy Materials Limited. According to the information, Innovation Metals Corp. executed a binding investment agreement whereby Hexagon has secured an option to acquire a 49 percent interest in […]
Israel: No New Waste-to-Energy Plants
Some months ago, the Israeli Ministry of Environmental Protection had begun to promote the establishment of three energy recovery facilities in the country, which were to be realized at the Morasha Junction, in Hiriya, and in the Northern Ashdod Industrial Zone. These waste-to-energy facilities “will treat municipal solid waste that would otherwise be sent to […]
New Waste Collection Vehicles for Singapore
The words “Don’t trash it, repurpose it” can be read on the new Mercedes-Benz Econic waste collection vehicles in Singapore, which were ordered by the local waste management company, Sembcorp. Today, around six million people live in the booming Asian metropolis Singapore where they produce just under 5,000 tons of waste – every day. That […]

WEEE Forum Calls for Action on WEEE in Metal Scrap
The WEEE Forum has today published a paper outlining the issues associated with the treatment of WEEE as metal scrap and has called on the competent authorities to take appropriate action. The paper discusses how treating WEEE as metal scrap is problematic and encourages those responsible to penalize facilities that do so. The practice of […]
NiMH Batteries: Better Performance Thanks to Recycling
Swedish researchers have found out that a new method for recycling old batteries can provide better performing and cheaper rechargeable hydride batteries (NiMH). “The new method allows the upcycled material to be used directly in new battery production,” Dag Noréus is quoted. The professor at the Department of Materials and Environmental Chemistry at Stockholm University, […]
Pilot Plug and Play Recycling Facility in Dubai
End of June this year, Proteco – a division of Singapore based company Yes Full Circle (YFC) – has launched a pilot facility that provides integrated brand protection, secure destruction and closed-loop/zero-landfill recycling solutions. According to the company, the facility uses proprietary technology to provide full traceability to confirm and validate the destruction and recycling […]
Wastewater doesn’t lie: Corona-Virus recognized via Wastewater Treatment Plants
The uncertainty caused by the Corona-Virus or Covid-19 respectively is based on nescience about the number of people infected. Wastewater based epidemiology delivers a relatively new method to gain insights into the dissemination of the pathogen. Which possibilities this procedural method offers and which difficulties might occur are issues researchers all over the world try […]
Desalination Brine: Raw Materials in Deep Sleeping Beauty Sleep
Worldwide, 15,906 operational desalination plants turn fresh or brackish water into around 95 million cubic meters of desalinated water for human use and 142 million of brine daily. Although 177 nations feature such plants, only four nations – Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait and Qatar – produce 55 percent of global desalination waste. Desalination plants […]
Making Things Last: Scotland Counts on Circular Economy
Scotland has set ambitious targets. “Biodegradable municipal waste will be banned from landfill from 2021, and we have a target to send no more than five percent of all waste to landfill by 2025,” the Scottish Government proclaimed in February 2016.
