Composite Recycling Ltd participates in RecEOL on the recycling of metals including critical metals
It is a first world problem – what to do with your old electronics when you upgrade? Stick them in a drawer or toss them in the bin? In our gadget-obsessed society, Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) is one of the fastest growing waste streams. Every year millions of tonnes of electronics…

Philipp Rathsack, Frank Riedewald, Maria Sousa-Gallagher, publish a paper on the analysis of the pyrolysis oil in the Journal of Analytical and Applied Pyrolysis entitled “Analysis of pyrolysis liquid obtained from whole tyre pyrolysis with molten zinc as the heat transfer media using comprehensive gas chromatography mass spectrometry”
Abstract: Pyrolysis of scrap tyres is a promising technology to recover valuable materials such as pyrolysis liquids, carbon black and steel. Pyrolysis liquids are complex mixtures of organic compounds and may represent a valuable source for chemicals.

Frank Riedewald and Maria Sousa-Gallagher authored a paper on our PCB recycling process entitled “Novel waste printed circuit board recycling process with molten salt” published by MethodsX.
Download the article from Elsevier Science, February 2015. The objective of the method was to prove the concept of a novel waste PCBs recycling process which uses inert, stable molten salts as the direct heat transfer fluid and, simultaneously, uses this molten salt to separate the metal products in either liquid (solder, zinc, tin, lead, […]
