Turning Waste into Value: Comprehensive E-Waste Recycling Solutions for Global Markets

The global surge in electronic waste has created both an environmental challenge and a significant business opportunity. With millions of tons of discarded batteries, cables, and circuit boards accumulating worldwide, the demand for efficient, reliable recycling equipment has never been greater.

San Lan Technologies Co., Ltd stands at the forefront of this industry, delivering complete recycling plant solutions that transform waste streams into valuable raw materials. Founded in 2007 and headquartered in Shicheng County, Ganzhou City, Jiangxi Province, China, the company has built a reputation as a professional manufacturer of WEEE recycling machines and mining equipment.

Complete Battery Recycling Systems

Batteries represent one of the fastest-growing waste streams globally. San Lan Technologies offers specialized solutions for both lead acid and lithium-ion battery recycling, addressing two distinct market needs with proven technology.

The company's lead acid battery recycling equipment breaks and separates used batteries to recover acid, plastic shells, lead grids, and lead paste. Systems are available with capacities ranging from 1 to 10 MT per hour, equipped with auxiliary equipment including de-sulfurization units, rotary furnaces for paste reduction, lead refinery kettle furnaces achieving 99.999% purity, and air pollution control systems that meet strict environmental requirements.

For the rapidly expanding lithium-ion battery market, San Lan provides li battery recycling equipment that safely discharges, pre-crushes, and separates waste lithium batteries to recover black mass (containing nickel, cobalt, and graphite), plastic separator film, copper, and aluminum. Processing capacities range from 500 to 2,500 kg per hour, with custom designs available to match specific operational requirements.

Cable and Circuit Board Recovery

Beyond batteries, San Lan manufactures advanced machinery for additional high-value recycling applications. The company's cable recycling equipment handles everything from scrap cable strippers for manual preprocessing to fully automated cable granulators with dry or wet separators that achieve copper and aluminum recovery with high purity.

For printed circuit board waste, San Lan offers both dry separation plants employing air separators, electrostatic separators, and pulse dust collectors, as well as wet separation systems with water metal separators. These circuit board recycling plants achieve copper powder purity of 96–98% and overall recovery rates up to 95%, all while controlling dust emissions to maintain a clean working environment.

Integrated Solutions Beyond Equipment

What distinguishes San Lan from conventional machinery suppliers is its comprehensive project execution capability. The company brings solid experience in EPC (Engineering, Procurement, Construction) projects, offering customized plant design, one-stop purchasing centers, installation, and commissioning services.

The company further differentiates itself through value-added services rarely found among equipment manufacturers. San Lan assists customers in sourcing waste materials—including cable scrap, PCB scrap, and used lead acid batteries—and helps market the recycled outputs such as copper rice, copper powder, and lead ingots. For entrepreneurs and investors looking to enter the recycling sector, San Lan actively seeks partnerships for recycling plant construction, offering strategic guidance from business development through to acquisition and merger opportunities.

Global Reach with Local Understanding

San Lan has established a truly international footprint, with customers spanning more than 21 countries including Singapore, Colombia, Vietnam, Mexico, Argentina, Korea, Malaysia, Indonesia, South Africa, Tunisia, India, Kenya, Saudi Arabia, the Philippines, Zambia, and Israel.

This global success is underpinned by the company's essentially bilingual capabilities in English and Chinese, combined with a genuine understanding of intercultural business environments. Whether negotiating technical specifications, coordinating installation schedules, or providing after-sales support, San Lan ensures clear communication and smooth project execution across diverse markets.

A Full Product Portfolio

San Lan's manufacturing scope extends well beyond the core battery, cable, and circuit board categories. The company also produces refrigerator and air conditioner recycling machines with refrigerant extraction capabilities, CRT recycling cutters for safe monitor and television disposal, motor stator cutters for electric motor dismantling, multi-purpose shredders and pre-choppers for size reduction, lamp recycling machines that capture mercury for environmental safety, and medium-frequency induction furnaces for melting recycled metals into ingots.

For the mining sector, San Lan offers lithium ore extraction plants that process crude ore and tailings to produce lithium concentrate with grades of 4–5%, achieving total recovery rates of 75% compared to the industry average of 65%. Nano ceramic grinding media for ball mills further complement the company's mineral processing offerings.
