Wood shredding treatment
Before commercial wood waste is recycled or incinerated, it is subjected to a wood shredder in order to reduce its volume and to extract foreign metal objects included in the waste. The first and most important step in the treatment process is the wood waste shredding. The proven HL-series are very popular for these applications. From here it can either be used directly in a boiler of retreated.
Secondary fuel treatment
The shredded waste wood with a high temperature value can be used for thermal recycling in powerplants is produced. This can then be further refined into a small wood particle optimal for briquetting. Thus, huge amounts of waste can be reduced, and it is also possible to substitute fossil fuels that are harmful to the environment such as petrol, coal and natural gas. The highly economic shredder range are used for the treatment of secondary fuels.
