Single Stream

Separate, sort and process valuable commodities, such as newspaper, mixed paper, plastic containers, PET, tetrapack and glass, which are then baled and shipped for reuse.

1

OCC screen

The material stream is then fed into the OCC screen separating cardboard from the waste stream.

2

Double ONP screen

The Double ONP screens, separates the larger than A3 sized paper on the top deck and the larger than A4 sized paper on the bottom deck from the stream.

3

Paper spike - 2G System Grumbach

The bottom deck of the ONP Screen leads to the PaperSpike® separating any remaining OCC.

4

Glass Breaker System

The unders of the Commingled Screen is then fed into the Glass Breaker Screen automatically separating the glass from the material stream.

5

Sorting Robot

The material stream continues to a Lubo Commingled Screen (8) separating mixed paper.

6

PaperMagnet® - Type PM 2000

The PaperMagnet® then sorts any remaining film, paper and/or cardboard by separating 2 D from 3 D materials.

Create value with Single Stream waste processing

Optimising output in terms of economic value and against the lowest possible costs per tonne. This is the short-term goal for every Single Stream installation that we provide in cooperation with Bollegraaf. The long-term goal is to ensure permanently low operating costs. The result: fast Return on Investment.

A solid business opportunity

While most EU countries still have a policy favouring source separation Single Stream waste processing is increasingly becoming an alternative for recycling household waste. Based on our experience in the United States and the United Kingdom we know for a fact that single stream waste recycling is an effective, efficient and sustainable alternative for the way most European countries collect and process waste. First of all, it reduces the number of transportation movements (e.g. PET, paper, glass, etc.), thereby decreasing CO2 levels dramatically and potentially saving in operational costs.

Second and more importantly, a (fully) automated sorting process dramatically increases separation quality, ensuring the highest possible purity of the recycled material, ultimately bringing you a higher yield per tonne of waste. This is why Single Stream is a solid business opportunity where recycling quality is based on proven technology and continuous innovation in stead of a far less incalculable policy of public responsibility and involvement.

Advantages

  • Positive sorting. The BRS solution for Single Stream waste processing allows for full automatic sorting and separation.
  • Easier logistics. Fewer kerbside collections mean less transportation movement, resulting in lower costs and lower CO2 emissions.
  • Higher yield per tonne of waste. Fully automated separation results in higher purity, and thereby a higher market value of recyclables.
  • Lower labour costs. Optical and/or robotic sorting significantly decrease the use of manual labour.
