Turning E-Waste into Value: Comprehensive Recycling Solutions from San Lan Technologies

Why E-Waste Recycling Matters More Than Ever

Electronic waste is one of the fastest-growing waste streams globally. From discarded smartphones and laptops to end-of-life vehicle batteries and industrial cables, the volume of recoverable materials continues to rise. Yet without the right processing equipment, valuable resources like copper, lead, lithium, and precious metals are lost to landfills, creating both environmental hazards and missed economic opportunities.

This is where professional recycling equipment manufacturers make a critical difference. By investing in advanced circuit board recycling equipment, battery breaking systems, and cable granulators, recyclers can transform waste into profitable raw materials while meeting strict environmental compliance standards.

Our client portfolio spans Singapore, Colombia, Vietnam, Mexico, Argentina, Korea, Malaysia, Indonesia, South Africa, Tunisia, India, Kenya, Saudi Arabia, Philippines, Zambia, Israel, and beyond. This global footprint reflects our ability to adapt recycling solutions to diverse regulatory environments, climatic conditions, and operational scales.

Core Recycling Equipment Portfolio

San Lan manufactures and supplies a comprehensive range of recycling machinery covering nearly every category of electronic and electrical waste:

• Lead Acid Battery Recycling Plants — Complete systems for breaking and separating used lead acid batteries, recovering acid, plastic shells, lead grids, and lead paste with capacities from 1-10 MT/hour. Includes breaking systems, rotary furnaces, blast furnaces, lead refinery kettles, de-sulfurization units, and air pollution control systems.
• Lithium Battery Recycling Plants — Advanced equipment for processing waste lithium-ion batteries, recovering black mass (nickel, cobalt, graphite), plastic, copper, and aluminum. Systems handle 500-2500 kg/hour and include discharging, pre-crushing, secondary granulation, magnetic separation, and dedicated air pollution control.
• Cable recycling equipment — From scrap cable strippers handling 1.5mm-150mm diameter cables to high-capacity cable granulators with dry and wet separation systems. Copper purity reaches 96-98% with recovery rates up to 95%.
• Circuit Board Recycling Plants — Wet and dry separation systems for PCB waste, extracting copper powder and precious metals. Capacities range from 300 kg/hour to 2000 kg/hour with environmentally friendly mechanical processes.
• Refrigerator & AC Recycling Systems — Complete lines for end-of-life refrigeration equipment, including refrigerant extraction machines, compressor cutting machines, and shredding/separating plants achieving over 90% recovery rates for iron, copper, aluminum, plastic, and polyurethane.
• Shredders & Pre-Choppers — Single, twin, and four-shaft shredders for pre-processing various e-waste streams before further separation, with capacities from 200 kg/hour to 6 MT/hour.
• Lithium Ore Extraction Plants — Mineral processing equipment for lithium crude ore and tailings, producing lithium concentrate with grades of 4-5% and total recovery rates of 75%.

What Sets San Lan Apart

Beyond equipment manufacturing, San Lan offers value-added services that many competitors cannot match:

• Customized plant design and layout optimization
• One-stop purchasing center for auxiliary equipment
• Installation and commissioning support
• Assistance sourcing waste feedstock (cable scrap, PCB scrap, used batteries)
• Help marketing recycled products (copper rice, lead ingots, etc.)
• Investment and partnership opportunities for recycling plant construction

We understand that buying recycling equipment is just the beginning. Building a profitable recycling operation requires reliable machinery, consistent feedstock supply, efficient processes, and viable product outlets. San Lan's integrated approach addresses all these dimensions.

Environmental Compliance Built In

Modern recycling isn't just about material recovery—it's about doing so responsibly. San Lan's equipment incorporates integrated environmental protection systems including air pollution control for furnace emissions, water treatment plants for acidic wastewater, pulse bag dust collectors for dry separation processes, and specialized mercury capture systems for lamp recycling.

Our lead acid battery recycling plants include de-sulfurization units that reduce SO2 emissions and lower melting temperatures, saving energy and additives while meeting strict environmental requirements. Lithium battery recycling systems feature dedicated gas absorption and neutralization equipment to handle harmful emissions before atmospheric release.
