The global surge in electronic waste has created an urgent demand for reliable, efficient recycling infrastructure. With over 60 million metric tons of e-waste generated annually worldwide, recyclers and entrepreneurs need more than just machines—they need complete, proven solutions that deliver measurable returns. San Lan Technologies Co., Ltd, established in 2007 and headquartered in Ganzhou, Jiangxi Province, China, has spent nearly two decades engineering and delivering end-to-end recycling plants to clients across 21 countries.
Why Turnkey Recycling Plants Matter
Building a recycling facility from scratch involves complex engineering, regulatory compliance, supply chain coordination, and operational expertise. A fragmented approach—buying equipment from multiple vendors without integration support—often leads to costly delays, incompatible systems, and underperforming output. Turnkey solutions eliminate these risks by providing a single point of accountability from design through commissioning.
San Lan Technologies specializes in exactly this model. The company offers Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) project delivery, which means clients receive a fully operational plant tailored to their feedstock, capacity targets, and local environmental regulations. The technical team includes mechanical engineering masters with over 15 years of hands-on experience in e-waste recycling machine design and plant optimization.
Core Recycling Lines and Performance Metrics
San Lan manufactures approximately 60 products across 13 categories. Here are the flagship recycling lines that drive the most client inquiries:
Lead Acid Battery Recycling
The lead acid battery recycling equipment line processes used batteries at 1–10 MT per hour. The system breaks and separates batteries into four streams: lead paste, lead grid, plastic (PVC/PP), and hard rubber. Downstream smelting options include blast (cupola) furnaces with 95% lead recovery rates and rotary furnaces for paste reduction. A dedicated de-sulfurization unit removes sulfur from PbSO4, lowering melting temperatures and reducing SO2 emissions. For refiners, the lead refinery kettle furnace produces 99.999% pure lead, with energy-saving electric heating options that cut consumption by 30–50%.
Lithium Battery Recycling
With the explosion of electric vehicles and consumer electronics, spent lithium-ion batteries represent both an environmental challenge and a resource opportunity. San Lan's lithium battery recycling plant handles 500–2,500 kg per hour, recovering black mass (containing nickel, cobalt, and graphite), plastic separator film, copper, and aluminum. The integrated air pollution control system neutralizes harmful gases before atmospheric release, ensuring compliance with strict emission standards. Plastic film is pneumatically conveyed and compressed into blocks via a hydraulic briquetter at a 10:1 volume reduction ratio.
Circuit Board Recycling
Printed circuit boards contain concentrated copper and trace precious metals. San Lan offers both dry and wet separation circuit board recycling equipment with capacities from 300 kg/hour to 2,000 kg/hour. The dry-separation WCBD-2000A plant achieves copper powder purity of 96–98% with a 95% recovery rate, using air separators, vibrating screens, cyclones, and pulse bag dust collectors. Wet-process alternatives are available for clients handling PCB waste with components still attached.
Cable Recycling
Scrap cable is one of the most accessible and profitable recycling feedstocks. San Lan's cable recycling equipment range includes scrap cable strippers for diameters from 1.5 mm to 150 mm, compact granulators with dry separators, and high-capacity cable recycling plants. The WCD-1200S granulator and related models separate copper or aluminum from plastic insulation with high efficiency, producing clean metal granules ready for smelting or direct sale.
Beyond Equipment: Value-Added Services
What distinguishes San Lan from pure equipment vendors is the ecosystem of services surrounding each plant. Clients receive assistance with waste material sourcing—whether cable scrap, PCB scrap, or used lead acid batteries—helping secure consistent feedstock at competitive prices. For investors exploring new recycling ventures, San Lan actively seeks partners for plant construction and can advise on business development from market entry through expansion.
On the output side, the company helps customers find buyers for recycled products such as copper rice, copper powder, and lead ingots. This "from scrap to sale" support de-risks new market entrants and accelerates path to profitability. Installation and commissioning are supervised by experienced technicians, and custom design options ensure each plant fits the client's workshop layout, power supply, and local regulatory framework.
Additional Product Lines
San Lan's portfolio extends beyond the core battery, cable, and PCB lines. The company also manufactures refrigerator and air conditioner recycling plants with refrigerant extraction machines, CRT cutters for monitor and TV glass separation, motor stator cutters for copper winding recovery, multi-purpose shredders and pre-choppers, lamp recycling machines with mercury capture, medium-frequency induction furnaces for metal ingot production, nano ceramic grinding media for mineral processing, and hydraulic press machines for metal chip briquetting and baling.
Global Reach, Local Understanding
San Lan's client base spans Singapore, Colombia, Vietnam, Mexico, Argentina, Korea, Malaysia, Indonesia, South Africa, Tunisia, India, Kenya, Saudi Arabia, Philippines, Zambia, Israel, and beyond. The team's bilingual English-Chinese capability and cross-cultural business experience simplify communication and contract negotiation for international buyers. Whether a client needs a single cable granulator or a complete battery recycling complex, the project approach remains the same: understand the requirement, engineer the solution, deliver on schedule, and support long-term operation.
