Waste Recycling Equipment improves Recovery & Throughput
December 19, 2023Waste Recycling Equipment improves Recovery & Throughput
L&S, who offer a range of earthmoving services, waste collection, skip and roll-on-roll off (RORO) containers, recycled aggregates and ready mixed concrete and concrete pumping needed to replace their inefficient Waste Recycling Equipment.
Challenges
- Inefficiencies – the previous system did not produce clean hardcore on the first pass, necessitating the reprocessing of material. This reduced overall throughput. The new system is able to produce clean hardcore in one pass.
- Downtime – The previous system was unreliable and suffered from a lot of downtime.
- Environmental – there were no dust and litter control measures on the older Waste Recycling Equipment
Solution
was an M&K Waste Recycling Equipment
- RS720M Modular Combi Screen with Flip Flow Bottom Deck
- PS712M Modular Picking Station
- AS150M Modular Air Density Separator
Benefits
- Efficiencies – the new M&K Waste Recycling Equipment is able to produce clean hardcore in one pass.
- Reliability – the new M&K Waste Recycling Equipment is reliable.
- Environmental – the new M&K Waste Recycling Equipment has dust and litter control measures.
our objectives were clear from the outset – we wanted a system that could process the material in 1 pass (something that we could not achieve on our previous system) and we wanted a system that was super reliable. We also needed to consider our neighbours so M&K were tasked with minimising litter & dust pollution. To that effect we visited many sites, more than once, to make sure that we got it right. And I believe we did - we chose the best equipment, from the best company, with the best service & backup. M&K installed the system in the middle of a working site without shutting the site down. Very professional company.

The L&S project team were professional and knowledgeable so the initial design element of this project was easy. However this project was challenging because we had to design a system in a relatively small footprint and then install the system in the middle of a working site without interfering with site operations. But credit to the team – the engineers were able to design something that worked (at height) and the installation team were able to install the system without stopping site operations
