WINDSHIFTER
Based on controlled
air
movement
the
Windshifter
is
a
recycling technology
with
a
proven
operational reliability.
Windshifters can be
used to separate and
upgrade a variety of
waste streams such
Construction and Demolition Waste (C&D)
as:
Commercial and Industrial Waste (C&I)
Compost, Biomass & Wood
Electronic and Electrical Waste (WEEE)
Bottom Ash
Refuse derived fuel (RDF)

By using controlled air, materials are separated

according to their density and shape. To be
effective two opposing densities are required
referred to as heavy and light.

BENEFITS OF USING WINDSHIFTER

TECHNOLOGY:
Proven reliability
Precision settings to suit application
Separated & Improved materials in the processing
cycle
Increased production
99% separation efficiency depending on the material
Protects other equipment in processing cycle e.g
shredders
Low maintenance
Low operational costs
Low dust emission due to controlled and recirculated
air flow
Reduced labour costs
Value for money & quick return on investment

DENSITY SEPARATOR
Ecohog Windshifters are capable of processing
a range of tonnage because of the precision
settings. Each application differs, when we find
out the bulk density of material we can advise
on the throughput that can be achieved.
Fraction sizes of 10mm 300mm can be
processed depending

TROMMEL FINES
The common topic of conversation within the waste
industry is the issue around landfill tax increases for
the disposal of trommel fines. HMRC have indicated
that they aim to have a policy drafted on the disposal
of trommel fines before the end of 2014. Ongoing
meetings with stakeholder groups have shown no
indications that these increases will be squashed so
isnt it time to get an operational strategy in place to
combat these escalating landfill costs?

At present disposal of trommel fines at landfill costs a

standard rate 72 per tonne and 2.50 for a lowered
rate. Based on these existing levies an operator
producing 50 tonnes per day of trommel fines incurs a
landfill tax of 187,200 per annum. If these waste
streams where treated to the qualifying standard the
lower rate of 2.50 per tonne can then be applied,
dramatically decreasing the overall landfill tax levy.
The process to achieving this saving is simple; waste
must firstly be screened through the trommel. This will
separate all fractions more effectively than any other
separation equipment in the industry as there is
guaranteed quality of separation and maximum
throughput, ensuring the successful removal of fines at
a qualifying level for the lower rate of landfill tax. The
remaining plus fraction then enters the Ecohog

provides the perfect combination

to tackle continually increasing landfill

costs. Investing in the equipment to
separate waste is the only option for
waste companies to ensure that landfill
costs are kept as low as possible.

our skills in concept design in finding
solutions to waste sorting problems and has lead
us to develop our sought after Ecohog air
separation units and auxiliary equipment.

WASTE SEPARATION
Basically its an air separation unit that
splits waste or organic material based on
density. Based on the customers needs
and the application it will be used in,
various models and auxiliaries are
available. The beauty is that its
compact and can be standalone or
nicely
integrated
with
existing
equipment.
