Waste Fines
Fines are generally the final output from a recycling process.
This where various materials are reduced to a very fine, soil or sand consistency.
Following the separation of core items such as aggregates, metals, plastics, paper and wood, fines are created using a flip flow screen or star screen with drop through to a skip or similar container below.
More and more materials can now be reduced to fines, enabling cost-effective disposal.
Some fines have a resale value.
The Environment Agency may classify fine as Non-inert Waste or as Inert Waste.
Inert Waste is neither chemically nor biologically reactive and does not decompose. The creation of inert waste typically results in lower disposal fees than biodegradable or hazardous waste. Inert Waste is used within composting or create RDF (Refuse Derived Fuel).
Following recent changes in legislation you now need to aware of Loss of Ignition (LOI) testing.
Loss of Ignition testing (LOI).
This is a test that shows the level of contaminates within fines. This is important because if the level of active contaminates is below 10% then, it is significantly cheaper to dispose of these fines per tons. We can supply equipment to help you clean your fines to reduce your overall costs of disposal.
Common users of recycling machinery to create fines are MRF operators and construction companies/ builders.
