BIR Non-Ferrous Metals Division: “No Way Back” Following Transformation in Scrap Trade Flows
According to David Chiao of US-based Uni-All Group Ltd, the main issues affecting non-ferrous scrap businesses at present are the US/China trade war, political instability around the world and a widespread decline in manufacturing, with some countries’ automotive industries recording 10 % production drops over the recent period. At the same time, scrap metal flows […]
Spotlight Discussion on Global Trade: “Misrepresented” Recycling Industry is Telling “The Right Story”

Belgian Separation Technology Dominates the Global Plastic Recycling Transition
If you think about Belgium, you think about beer, chocolate and waffles. A lesser-known fact about the Belgians is that they are frontrunners in the global recycling industry. Not only can Belgian recycling companies boast one of the best recycling rates, but the country is also home to various technology providers, one of which is […]
Panizzolo Mega 1500: Decisive Role for Metal Valorization
Due to non-performing recycling plants, a considerable quantity of metals cannot be reintroduced into the production cycle in Europe every year, says Italy-based manufacturer Panizzolo. Not having a sufficient degree of cleaning and separation, these outputs are lost in landfills, incinerators or in exports to countries with low environmental policies. “Panizzolo Recycling Systems avoids vague […]
New Plant for Plastic Recycling in Thailand
The multinational group Suez will build a recycling facility that turns plastic waste into circular polymers, in Bang Phli district (Thailand). According to the company’s information in June this year, the future plant near Bangkok would “contribute to Thailand’s ambitious 2030 target to achieve 100 percent plastic recycling”. The plan includes that it will convert […]

Intelligent Management Systems by ECOVE
Taiwan-based company ECOVE boosts “resource cycling efficiency” of Energy-from-Waste (EfW) plants by iO&M (intelligent operation and maintenance systems). Once dubbed “garbage island” for its overflowing landfills and filthy streets, Taiwan now has Asia’s highest rate of recycling and is a role model for the region. As the leading company of the resource recycling industry in […]

Eldan Recycling, Danish manufacturer of recycling equipment, has launched their new Twin Shaft Clean-Cut Shredder for production of clean-cut tire chips from car or truck tires. Two frequency converters ensure a very flexible operation, i.e. individual setting of rpm, overload protection, auto reverse at overload and high torque from zero RPM. And they offer up […]
Chemical Recycling of Plastic – Waste No More?
When it comes to the circular economy transition, plastics recycling is as much of a challenge as an opportunity. Today, around 25.8 million tons of plastic waste are generated in Europe every year, with less than 30 percent of it getting collected for recycling. This is a huge loss of valuable resources to the economy, […]
USA: Research on Enhanced Biological Phosphorus Removal
The Water Research Foundation (WRF) in the USA has selected a team of utilities, consulting firms and universities to promote standard use of sustainable enhanced biological phosphorus removal solution. As phosphorus limits permitted in wastewater effluent shrink to protect drinking water sources, a nationwide research effort has started work “to advance implementation of a leading-edge […]
Chinese Textile Recycling: The Night Is Darkest Just Before Sunrise
Fashion is the second most polluting industry worldwide. The states contributing to the fiber production mostly export, landfill or incinerate the amounts of used textiles. China does not make an exception but has perhaps found a recycling solution. In the United States, more than 15 million tons of used textile waste are generated each year, […]
