Recycling

The primary goal of environmental protection is to decrease
the amount of waste produced. If waste is produced, you must
try to utilize it as a material or source of energy. Appropriate
and safe processing must be arranged for all kinds of waste.
The sorting of the waste created in our operations is influenced
by the legislation, environmental factors and general tidiness,
among other things. The amount of waste driven to the landfill
can be decreased by sorting the waste in the appropriate,
labeled receptacles. The most effective way of protecting the
environment is to save material and energy and use
environmentally friendly methods and products.
Become familiar with the waste disposal and recycling
instructions of your unit.
Metal waste can be collected, sorted and delivered to the
industry for use as a raw material and alloying element.
Recycling saves approximately half of the energy that would
be consumed if the same amount of metal were obtained from
a mine.
Toxic waste means waste that can be hazardous to health or
the environment because of some chemical or other property.
When collecting and handling toxic waste, these health and
environmental risks need to be taken into account. Toxic waste
typically includes batteries and accumulators, paints, solvents,
other special liquids, fuel waste, coolant waste, aerosols and
used fluorescent tubes. Sort all toxic waste and make sure it is
treated appropriately.
Deliver the used or discarded materials (packing waste, clean
metal parts, electric components, etc.) to a recycling center or
another suitable location to be destroyed.
Complete Overhaul or
Disposal
As the lifetime of the machine draws to a close, there are two
options for dealing with the machine: complete overhaul or
disposal. If complete overhaul is selected, use the
manufacturer's expertise to determine the amount of repairs
needed. This also ensures that any new environmental and
safety requirements will be taken into account. In the case of
complete overhaul, the product needs to be equipped to meet
the new requirements. This is the responsibility of the person
conducting the repair work.
Environmental load can be reduced by sorting materials and
components. Please note that the machine mostly consists of
various iron structures, which are mainly recyclable.
