Advanced Separation

Separation Technology for Biowaste

Monsal provide state of the art separation technology to extract the organic fraction from contaminated biological wastes. This is based on a wet separation process.

Conventional waste processing plants with manual or semi-automatic screening/sorting can only achieve a low separation of the organic components. Frequently these organics are contaminated. Waste feed material with up to 50% of foreign, non-organic material, may be processed by our technology without difficulty, which allows high flexibility in the type of feed and in plant operation.

Monsal have a proven track record of removing inert contaminants including packaging, plastics, cardboard and glass.

There are over 15 operational plants using Monsal's advanced waste dissolver systems, including municipal waste plants, source segregated waste and food waste - both commercial and industrial.
