Allcontrols offers bespoke technical solutions for the recovery of residual metals and polymers from ASR.
ASR (also known as ‘car fluff’ or ‘shredder light’) is the waste produced after the shredding of ELV and metal recovery. Accounting for almost one third of a vehicle’s mass, ASR consists of materials including plastics, rubber, elastomer, textiles, wood and residual metals. With the right solutions, both metals and plastics can be recovered. The recovery of ASR is becoming increasingly important, and in the EU alone, nearly three million tonnes per annum of ASR is generated. The European Directive 2000/53/EC established the requirement that vehicle and equipment manufacturers must ensure that new vehicles are reusable and/or recoverable to a minimum of 95% by weight per vehicle. To reach these targets, various post-shredder technologies have been developed with the aim of improving recovery of materials and energy from ASR. ASR recovery solutions available from Allcontrols include:Eddy Current Separators (ECS)

Density Separators

Electrostatic Separators
