Recycling - End of Life Vehicle Take-back
 |
Delivery The last owner takes the ELV to one of our contracted take-back partners. After checking the vehicle our take-back partner issues the required Certificate of Destruction (CoD). |
 |
Pre-Treatment and Depollution First of all the battery is taken off and the airbags neutralized. Our take-back partner then takes out all fuels and other operating fluids of the ELV. This includes engine oil, transmission oil, brake fluid, coolant & refrigerant fluid from the air conditioning system. |
 |
Dismantling The next step is the dismantling of components and systems in order to market them as used parts or to use them as basis for remanufactured parts. If economically viable, materials like plastic or glass are taken off for recycling purposes. |
 |
Storage Environmentally hazardous materials are collected and later on sent to specialised recovery companies for recovery or disposal. |
 |
Shredder The pre-treated hulks are delivered to a shredder which segregates the ELV into pieces and sorts the output into various fractions for further recycling or recovery. |
 |
Post Shredder The segregated material fractions from the shredder are further processed with different technologies (magnet, eddy current, flotation) to obtain material fractions which can be used as valuable secondary raw material. |
 |
Recycling / Recovery / Landfill Material fractions from the shredder and from PST plants can be recycled (e.g. as replacement for coal in the blast furnace, as dewatering means for conditioning of sewage sludge) or recovered in the cement industry. This process chain enables a recovery of 85 % of the vehicle and reduces drastically the amount of remaining waste for landfill. |
