Air drum separator for heavy and light material separation

Effectively separate heavy and light materials with minimal energy use, enhancing your waste processing efficiency and sustainability in both stationary and mobile operations.

Separates and Screens Diverse Waste Materials

The Lubo Air Drum Separator by Bollegraaf delivers efficient and versatile waste separation for municipal solid waste facilities, construction and demolition waste processors, and recycling centers. Utilizing a unique combination of an air knife, rotating drum, film separator, and cyclone, it ensures precise division of light and heavy materials. Ideal for producing recycled plastic pellets, refined cardboard, and RDF briquettes, this system handles a variety of waste streams such as plastic, paper, and C&D waste. Designed for continuous operation with low energy consumption, it offers flexible deployment options—fixed, mobile on adjustable legs, or completely mobile on wheels—making it adaptable for any site requirement. Integrating seamlessly into existing systems, the Lubo Air Drum Separator is engineered for sustainability, aligning with the needs of environmentally-conscious waste management operations.
