Thanks to the hydrostatic drive system and extensive shaft configurations, the Urraco Evo series provides maximum flexibility regarding the input materials. These range from waste wood, residential, commercial and industrial waste to plastics, metal and aluminium waste. Copyright: Lindner Recyclingtech

The disposal of spent Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and polyfluoroalkyl substances often requires energy-intensive processes, extreme temperatures, and complex reagents. Now, researchers have proposed an alternative defluorination approach that utilizes sodium dispersion to recover fluorine in the form of sodium fluoride (NaF) with a yield of up to 98%. The recovered NaF can be recycled, enhancing fluoride resource utilization. Copyright: Prof. Norio Shibata from Nagoya Institute of Technology, Japan
