Mixer helps recycle valuable raw materials
Lindor, Dordrecht, the Netherlands, has supplied a specially adapted version of one of its ‘gentle touch’ mixers to the Helbra plant of AURA GmbH, the leading German recycling company. The purpose-built mixer enables different batches of used catalysts to be blended with other products, including liquid reagents, to create usable raw materials for various industries. AURA has modern, very efficient and environmentally friendly technology for recycling metal components from used industrial catalysts and other metal-containing residues from the (petro)chemical industry. With the Lindor machine it is possible to mix different batches of used catalysts to give an end product with a consistent calorific value.
The mixer is made of 316 L stainless steel. The design is explosion-proof in accordance with ATEX Zone 21 (inside the mixer) and Zone 22 (outside the mixer). Because of the abrasive nature of the products to be mixed, gland seals were fitted on both the inlet and outlet side. With a 15kW electric motor the machine’s energy consumption is very low.
AURA placed the order after the successful completion of small-scale trials at Lindor’s Dordrecht test plant. www.lindor.nl
