The processing of the bottom ash takes place using ferrous and non-ferrous separation installations developed in-house by NRC: the Phairon® machines.

By applying the latest techniques, the separation installations remove ferrous and non-ferrous metals from the IBA bottom ash. The Phairon® machines developed in-house are able to separate ferrous and non-ferrous metals in various fractions from 0 mm as efficiently as possible. The separation installations are based on a modular concept, which ensures the optimum configuration for each type of bottom ash, processing location and production speed.

The Phairon® installations are fully mobile and are equipped with the most innovative separation technologies. With the Phairon® separation installations, the client achieves the optimum return from the valuable non-ferrous metals and is guaranteed the best results per ton of processed material.

The separation installations are set up on the site where the bottom ash is stored or directly adjacent to the site where the bottom ash is produced. The separation installations do not require external utilities and are operated by a fully trained team of professionals who are always on site.

In addition to IBA bottom ash, NRC also offers the possibility of recovering metals from, for example, shredder material, foundry sand, glass, ores, electronics scrap or various metal slags.
