Prater Industries prides itself not only on its cutting-edge equipment and innovative techniques but also on its involvement in green industries like recycling that contribute to the health of our planet. Prater provides customers with machinery for breaking down e-waste, food waste, wood waste, and other recyclable materials, transforming waste into usable material that can be made into new products. Rising prices in all forms of raw materials have improved the ROI and return on investment and reduced the payback periods. An example is metals, where the raw material costs have made recovering valuable metals from e-waste highly profitable, often more profitable than processing mined ore.
Die Recyclinganlagen von Prater verarbeiten eine Vielzahl von Elektroschrott, darunter:
- Handys und Ladegeräte
- Compact Discs
- Computer-Festplattenlaufwerke
- Unterhaltungselektronik
- Mikrochips (einschließlich Leadframes)
- Gedruckte Leiterplatten
- Wiederaufladbare Batterien
- Halbleiter
- Fernsehapparate
Recycling Wood Waste
Prater’s equipment also supports the recycling of wood waste. Reducing and processing waste wood allows it to be used for various other products.
Recycelte Holzabfälle können verwendet werden in:
- Einstreu für Tiere
- Grillbriketts
- Biokraftstoff
- Kompost
- Füllstoffe
- Feuerstarter
- Industrielles Holzmehl
- Andere Holzwerkstoffe
- Sperrholz
- Holzverkleidung
Prater Industries can customize its equipment to recycle just about any substance that requires particle reduction, including non-wood organic matter and plastics.
Aufbereitungsanlagen für Recycling
Prater bietet eine Reihe von Geräten zur Unterstützung von Recyclingmaßnahmen, die eine Materialreduzierung erfordern. Wir helfen bei der Implementierung und Integration unserer Maschinen in Systeme und bieten Unterstützung bei der Prüfung und Lohnverarbeitung im Zusammenhang mit der Produktentwicklung, Notproduktion und Produktprüfung.
Prater stellt u.a. Geräte her, die für Recyclinganwendungen verwendet werden können:
Our hammermills break e-waste into manageable sizes as its hammering mechanisms pass the grate or screen, further reducing material through grinding actions. Hammermills reduce e-waste and ensure that sensitive data is scoured from electronic equipment during the recycling process.
In 2021, Prater acquired IPEC (International Process Equipment Company), known for manufacturing quality rotor mills, which work well in recycling operations. This multi-purpose mill uses an internal rotor, which pulverizes particles by spinning at high speed. The turbulence causes particles to collide, causing further reduction, while using heavy-duty bearings positioned outside the mill’s grinding chamber to prevent material contamination and provide stability during operation.
