Magnetic
separator function in garbage sorting plant is to extractal ferrous whose
materials from the rest of the commingled container stream. The efficiency with
which this task is accomplished is a function of the design of the magnetic
separator, the bed depth of the materials subjected to the magnetic field, the
ratio of ferrous containers to other materials and the proportion of ferrous
containers which are filled or partially filled with food, liquid or other
substances.
Once
separated from the other containers and depending upon the markets, the ferrous
containers are manually sorted (sorting station in MRF) into two streams, i.e.,
bimetal and tin. Residue is collected and transported to landfill. Bimetal
containers may be flattened, baled, or densified into biscuit form. Tin cans
may be flattened or shredded and introduced to an air classifier for the
removal of labels loosened by the flattening, or shredding process. Alternatively,
tin cans may be flattened, baled or densified with ferrous cans that are not
removed by the or without bimetal cans. Magnetic separator from the commingled
containers stream are conveyed to a sorting station where manual separation
takes place. The cans removed manually are returned, by means of conveyors,to join the ferrous
removed by the magnetic separator.
Different conditions needs different solutions. Garbage sorting system has
to be suitable for the local garbage characteristics. Learn more about magnetic separator and MRF:info@stavn.cn
