IBA Wet Sorting Production Lines: Driving Efficient Resource Recycling with Ruijie Equipment

Incineration Bottom Ash (IBA)—a byproduct of municipal solid waste incineration—contains valuable recyclables that often go untapped. Ruijie's IBA wet sorting production line addresses this by integrating specialized sorting equipment to extract pure resources, turning waste into reusable materials while aligning with global sustainability goals.

What is IBA?

Incineration Bottom Ash (IBA) refers to the solid residue left at the bottom of waste incinerators after burning municipal or industrial waste. Composed of a mix of ferrous metals (iron, steel), non-ferrous metals (aluminum, copper), sand, and inert materials, IBA was once discarded in landfills. Today, advanced wet sorting lines like Ruijie's transform it into a resource, minimizing environmental impact and creating economic value.

Key Equipment in Ruijie's IBA Wet Sorting Line

Ruijie's IBA wet sorting line relies on coordinated sorting equipment to ensure precise separation, with each machine serving a critical role:

183. Trommel Screen: The first step in the process, it screens and grades IBA by particle size, separating large chunks from fine materials to optimize subsequent sorting.
183. Electromagnetic Overband Separator: A core metal sorting machine, it removes ferrous metals (e.g., iron fragments) from the graded material, leveraging magnetic force for efficient capture.
183. Crushing Machine: Reduces larger IBA particles—including stone and metal clumps—to uniform sizes, preparing them for deeper separation.
183. Jig Machine: Specialized for non-ferrous metal beneficiation, it uses gravity and water flow to concentrate non-ferrous metals (e.g., copper) from other materials.
183. Eddy Current Separator: Another key metal sorting machine, it separates non-ferrous metals like aluminum and copper from inert waste, ensuring high-purity recovery.
183. Sand Washing Machine & Dewatering Screen: Cleans sand extracted from IBA to remove impurities, then dewaters it for reuse in construction or landscaping.

Recyclables Recovered from the Line

Ruijie's IBA wet sorting line delivers three high-value outputs:

183. Pure Ferrous Metals: Such as iron, steel, captured by the electromagnetic overband separator/ magnetic separators, these are melted down and reused in steel production.
183. Pure Non-Ferrous Metals: Such as copper, aluminum, zinc, Separated by the eddy current separator, aluminum and copper are sold to smelters for recycling into new products.
183. Pure Sand: Processed by the sand washing and dewatering screen, it replaces virgin sand in concrete, asphalt, or other construction applications.

Ruijie's Other Renewable Resource Recycling Lines

Beyond IBA processing, Ruijie offers a range of sorting lines for broader resource recovery:

183. Construction Waste Recycling Production Line: Processes concrete, bricks, and rebar into recycled aggregates and metals.
183. ASR Recycling Line: Handles Automotive Shredder Residue (ASR), extracting metals and fibers from end-of-life vehicle waste.
183. UCB Recycling Line: Recovers resources from Used Beverage Cans (UBC), turning them into reusable construction materials.

Ruijie's IBA wet sorting production line demonstrates how specialized sorting equipment and sorting lines can unlock value from waste. By recovering pure metals and sand, it not only reduces landfill reliance but also supports a circular economy—proving that IBA, once a burden, can become a sustainable resource.
