The global surge in electronic waste has created both an environmental challenge and a business opportunity. With over 50 million tons of e-waste generated annually worldwide, companies that invest in the right recycling infrastructure can transform discarded materials into profitable resources while contributing to a sustainable future.
Since 2007, San Lan Technologies Co., Ltd has been at the forefront of this transformation, providing comprehensive recycling equipment solutions to clients across 21+ countries. From lead acid batteries to lithium-ion cells, circuit boards to scrap cables, San Lan delivers turn-key recycling plants that maximize recovery rates and minimize environmental impact.
Lead Acid Battery Recycling: Recovering Valuable Lead Resources
Used lead acid batteries (ULAB) represent one of the most recyclable waste streams, with lead boasting a recovery rate exceeding 95%. San Lan's lead acid battery recycling plant provides a complete processing line that breaks and separates batteries into four valuable fractions: lead grid, lead paste, plastic (PVC/PP), and hard rubber.
The system handles capacities from 1 to 10 MT per hour, incorporating essential components such as battery breaking and separation systems, de-sulfurization units, filter presses, blast furnaces, rotary furnaces for paste reduction, lead refinery kettle furnaces achieving 99.999% purity, water treatment plants, and air pollution control systems. This integrated approach ensures compliance with environmental regulations while delivering high-purity lead ingots ready for resale.
Lithium Battery Recycling: Capturing the Energy Transition Opportunity
As electric vehicles and portable electronics proliferate, spent lithium-ion batteries have become a critical feedstock for recovering cobalt, nickel, graphite, and copper. San Lan's lithium battery recycling plant processes waste Li-ion batteries at 500-2500 kg/hour, separating black mass (containing valuable metals), plastic film, copper, and aluminum through a multi-stage mechanical process.
The complete line includes discharging stations, pre-crushers, secondary granulators, magnetic separators, black powder separation units, plastic pneumatic conveying systems, hydraulic briquetters, and dedicated air pollution control systems. For operations seeking to enter this rapidly growing market, San Lan provides not only equipment but also technical guidance on safe handling and processing protocols.
Circuit Board Recycling: Unlocking Precious and Base Metals
Printed circuit boards (PCBs) contain significant concentrations of copper, gold, silver, and palladium, making them high-value recycling targets. San Lan offers both dry and wet separation circuit board recycling plant configurations, with capacities ranging from 300 kg/hour to 5000 kg/hour depending on customer requirements.
The WCBD series utilizes air separation technology with electrostatic separators, vibrating screens, cyclone separators, and pulse bag dust collectors to achieve copper powder purity of 96-98% with recovery rates around 95%. The WCB series employs wet metal separation for applications requiring higher purity or processing boards with components still attached. Both configurations operate without dust pollution, ensuring worker safety and regulatory compliance.
Cable Recycling: Separating Copper and Aluminum from Insulation
Scrap cables and wires represent one of the most accessible entry points into the recycling business, with consistent demand for recovered copper and aluminum. San Lan's cable recycling plant portfolio includes scrap cable strippers for diameters from 1.5mm to 150mm, compact granulators with dry separators, and high-capacity cable granulators processing up to 1200 kg/hour.
The cable stripping machines efficiently separate copper or aluminum conductors from plastic insulation, while granulator systems finely chop mixed cable waste and separate metal fractions through air classification. For specialized applications such as jelly-filled telecommunications cables, dedicated recycling plants are available with customized separation technology.
Additional Recycling Solutions
Beyond these core offerings, San Lan manufactures specialized equipment for refrigerator and air conditioner recycling (including refrigerant extraction and compressor cutting), CRT monitor cutting and glass separation, electric motor stator dismantling, lamp recycling with mercury capture, and metal melting furnaces for converting recovered materials into ingots. The company also produces industrial shredders and pre-choppers in single-shaft, twin-shaft, and four-shaft configurations to prepare diverse waste streams for downstream processing.
