Components’ Characterization of End-of-Life Dishwashers

The treatment of Wastes Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) is a significant source secondary raw materials. Ferrous non-ferrous metals, electronic equipment, plastics are among these One the most common metals sourced out WEEE stainless steel. Dishwashers sources steel, so large amounts steel can be recovered from them. In this project, dishwashers were submitted to size reduction via shredding, shredded products went through magnetic separator (which separates all ferrous components), an eddy current sensor components) induction sorting removed metallic fractions). This procedure led following two streams: one with boards, cables another stream mainly including plastic. next stage, stainless-steel passed high-intensity separator, leading non-magnetic stream. Thereafter, hand was applied both streams which aimed increase recovery each
