Turning E-Waste into Profit: Comprehensive Recycling Solutions by San Lan Technologies
From lead acid batteries to circuit boards, discover how one manufacturer is helping businesses worldwide capitalize on the growing recycling economy.
The global surge in electronic waste has created both an environmental crisis and a massive economic opportunity. With over 50 million metric tons of e-waste generated annually, businesses that invest in the right recycling equipment are positioned to turn waste streams into valuable raw materials. Whether you are processing used lead acid batteries, scrap cables, or discarded circuit boards, the key to profitability lies in choosing reliable, efficient machinery backed by experienced engineering support.
San Lan Technologies Co., Ltd has been at the forefront of this industry since 2007, delivering complete recycling plant solutions to customers across more than 21 countries. Headquartered in Ganzhou, Jiangxi Province, China, the company specializes in designing and manufacturing machinery that extracts maximum value from waste materials while meeting strict environmental standards.
Complete Battery Recycling Solutions
Batteries represent one of the most complex and profitable recycling streams. San Lan Technologies offers specialized systems for both traditional and modern battery types.
Complete plants break and separate used lead acid batteries to recover acid, plastic shells, lead grids, and lead paste. Capacity ranges from 1 to 10 MT per hour, with lead recovery rates reaching 95%.
Advanced lithium-ion battery recycling plants recover black mass (containing nickel, cobalt, and graphite), plastic, copper, and aluminum with capacities from 500 to 2,500 kg per hour.
The lead acid battery recycling equipment line includes battery breakers and separation systems, de-sulfurization units, rotary furnaces for paste reduction, blast furnaces, lead refinery kettles producing 99.999% pure lead, filter presses, water treatment plants, and air pollution control systems. This integrated approach ensures that every component of a spent battery is recovered or safely treated, keeping operations compliant with environmental regulations.
Cable and Circuit Board Recovery Systems
Beyond batteries, San Lan Technologies provides robust solutions for two of the most common e-waste streams: cables and printed circuit boards.
From scrap cable strippers handling diameters from 1.5mm to 150mm, to high-capacity cable granulators with dry and wet separation, San Lan's cable recycling line separates copper and aluminum from plastic insulation with high purity. Compact granulators, wet process systems, and jelly-filled cable recycling plants offer options for every scale of operation.
Circuit board recycling plants process PCBs through mechanical automated systems with capacities from 300 to 2,000 kg per hour. Both dry separation (air and electrostatic) and wet separation (water metal separation) technologies are available, achieving copper powder purity of 96-98% and recovery rates up to 95% with no dust pollution.
Additional Recycling and Mining Solutions
San Lan's product portfolio extends to cover nearly every major recycling and resource recovery application:
- Refrigerator and AC recycling — Complete shredding and separating plants with refrigerant extraction machines that recover iron, copper, aluminum, plastic, and polyurethane at rates exceeding 90%.
- CRT recycling — CRT cutters with ni-chrome heaters or diamond cutters safely separate panel glass, funnel glass, and phosphor powder from old monitors and televisions.
- Motor recycling — Motor stator cutters dismantle electric motors to extract copper windings from stator cores efficiently.
- Shredders and pre-choppers — Single, twin, and four-shaft shredders handle everything from PCB and cable to refrigerators and batteries as pre-processing equipment.
- Lithium ore extraction — Processing plants convert lithium crude ore to concentrate with grades of 4-5%, including specialized tailings recovery systems that achieve 75% total recovery rates compared to the industry average of 65%.
- Metal melting furnaces — Medium frequency induction furnaces melt recycled metals into ingots, with models ranging from 15KW to 160KW capacity.
