UK – UK-based waste treatment and renewable energy specialist New Earth Solutions has struck a deal with aluminium reprocessor Alutrade to recycle its non-ferrous metals for the coming 12 months.
Once mixed non-ferrous materials arrive at Alutrade, they will be separated into the different ingredients. The incoming stream will include cans as well as other forms of metal. According to Alutrade, any ‘contaminants’ reprocessed from the product will be returned to New Earth for further separation and recovery.
‘It is important for New Earth to secure destinations for its recyclable products to maximise the benefits of the process to our customers,’ remarks Richard Brooke, New Earth’s Commercial Director. ‘This arrangement with Alutrade provides both security and quality reprocessing within the UK.’
New Earth treats black bag household waste that would have otherwise ended up in landfill or incineration plants. Metals and plastics are separated for recycling using mechanical biological treatment processes; furthermore, a refuse-derived fuel is produced from the non-recyclable fraction.
