Comprehensive E-Waste Recycling Solutions: Turnkey Plants for Batteries, Cables, and Circuit Boards

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 annually, the demand for efficient recycling equipment has never been greater. Companies that invest in advanced recycling technology not only contribute to environmental sustainability but also unlock valuable recoverable materials such as copper, lead, lithium, and precious metals.

Since 2007, San Lan Technologies Co., Ltd has been at the forefront of this industry, designing and manufacturing specialized machinery that transforms waste into profitable resources. With customers spanning over 21 countries across five continents, San Lan has established itself as a trusted recycling equipment supplier for businesses ranging from small-scale operations to large industrial plants.

The Growing Market for Battery Recycling Equipment

Batteries represent one of the most critical segments in the e-waste recycling industry. Lead-acid batteries power vehicles worldwide, while lithium-ion batteries drive the electric vehicle revolution. Both types require specialized processing to recover valuable materials safely and efficiently.

San Lan's lead acid battery recycling equipment addresses this need with a complete processing line that breaks and separates used batteries into four distinct products: lead grid, lead paste, plastic (PVC/PP), and hard rubber. With capacity ranging from 1 to 10 metric tons per hour, these systems accommodate operations of various scales. The integrated water treatment plant and air pollution control system ensure full environmental compliance throughout the process.

For lithium-ion batteries, San Lan offers cutting-edge lithium battery recycling plant solutions with capacity from 500 to 2,500 kg per hour. These plants recover black mass containing nickel, cobalt, and graphite, along with separated plastic, copper, and aluminum. The inclusion of air pollution control systems and plastic pneumatic conveying ensures safe handling of potentially hazardous materials while maximizing recovery rates.

Cable Recycling: Turning Waste Copper into Profit

Scrap cables and wires represent a significant source of recoverable copper and aluminum. However, traditional manual stripping methods are inefficient and costly. Modern cable recycling machine technology automates this process, separating metal conductors from plastic insulation with precision and speed.

San Lan's cable recycling portfolio includes everything from manual scrap cable strippers for smaller operations to fully automated cable granulator systems capable of processing 1,200 kg per hour. The dry separation technology achieves high purity copper output without water consumption, making it ideal for regions where water conservation is a priority. For specialized applications such as jelly-filled telecommunications cables, dedicated recycling plants ensure complete material recovery.

Circuit Board and E-Waste Processing Capabilities

Printed circuit boards (PCBs) contain valuable metals including copper, gold, silver, and palladium. San Lan's circuit board recycling plants utilize both wet and dry separation technologies, with capacities ranging from 300 kg/hour to 2,000 kg/hour. The dry separation systems achieve copper powder purity of 96-98% with a 95% recovery rate, while wet separation options handle PCB waste with components still attached.

Beyond batteries, cables, and circuit boards, San Lan manufactures specialized equipment for CRT monitor recycling, refrigerator and air conditioner processing, motor dismantling, and lamp recycling. This comprehensive product range enables customers to establish multi-stream e-waste processing facilities under a single technology partner.

Turnkey EPC Solutions and Value-Added Services

What distinguishes San Lan from equipment-only vendors is its commitment to complete project success. The company provides full EPC (Engineering, Procurement, Construction) services, guiding customers from initial concept through installation and commissioning. This turnkey approach eliminates the complexity of coordinating multiple suppliers and ensures seamless system integration.

San Lan's technical team brings over 15 years of hands-on experience in mechanical engineering and e-waste processing. This expertise translates into equipment designs that prioritize reliability, efficiency, and operator safety. The company's bilingual English-Chinese capabilities facilitate smooth communication with international clients, while its deep understanding of intercultural business environments helps navigate complex project requirements.

Proven Track Record Across Diverse Markets

San Lan's equipment operates successfully in diverse economic and regulatory environments, from Singapore and South Korea to Colombia, Mexico, Argentina, and South Africa. This global footprint demonstrates the adaptability of San Lan's solutions to varying local conditions, waste compositions, and environmental standards.

Mining and Mineral Processing Equipment

In addition to e-waste recycling, San Lan supplies equipment for the mining sector. The company's lithium ore extraction plants process crude ore into lithium concentrate with grades of 4-5%, while tailings extraction plants recover additional value from waste material left by previous processing operations. With total recovery rates reaching 75% compared to the industry average of 65%, these systems maximize resource utilization for mining operations.
