ALLU and MAPEI announce co-operation within concrete recycling

ALLU MAPEI Circulus is a solution to transform returned concrete into a high quality recycled aggregate. The immensely mobile and industrially efficient method has a strong impact on the environment and business.

ALLU and MAPEI are both world-class leading companies in their respective fields with global distribution networks. Through the co-operation customers will have access to the highest level of knowledge within concrete recycling.

The ALLU MAPEI Circulus system is aimed at large and medium-sized RMC producers or cement/concrete recycling companies who wish to reduce the cost of handling returned concrete waste. Besides the positive environmental effects, through less new material needed, the system will generate substantial savings in production. Savings of up to tens of euros per cubic metre of concrete produced are achievable through savings towards landfill cost and reduced costs for virgin aggregate.

The system is simple and requires minimal investments: the MAPEI Re-con Zero- chemical and an ALLU Transformer. With Re-Con Zero the wet returned concrete is transformed into a dry granulate. The ALLU Transformer then processes the hardened lumps and screens them into the specified aggregate size to be recycled with fresh concrete. A concrete manufacturer may then use between 5 – 30% of the recycled aggregate with new concrete. This will bring significant savings to the cost of buying virgin aggregate. The system also greatly reduces the amount of washed out sludge from concrete trucks. Waste sludge is an environmental challenge as it must go to a landfill and is therefore an additional cost for concrete producers.

The ALLU MAPEI Circulus system assists the concrete industry towards sustainability in concrete manufacturing. The global consumption of concrete is a staggering 23 billion tpy, and it is estimated that approximately 2% of all concrete produced in the world is returned to the producer. The majority of this ends up on a landfill. An estimated 5% of all man-made carbon dioxide emissions stem from cement and concrete production. 2% of produced and returned concrete adds up to 460 million t being unnecessarily put on landfills, resulting in a staggering total of 53 million t of carbon dioxide being emitted. With the ALLU MAPEI Circulus, there is an opportunity to save up to 96% on the above-mentioned carbon dioxide emissions.

ALLU unveils new TS blade structure at bauma 2019

ALLU used bauma 2019 to introduce its patented TS blade structure for its screener/ crusher bucket range. At the core of the ALLU TS drum construction is the configuration of the screening blades that spin between the screening combs. The end product size is defined by the space between the combs, and different fragment sizes can be achieved simply by repositioning the combs.

As the screening combs carry most of the material weight, the drums and bearings experience less impact and load, with the design of the assembly ensuring the machine works well in wet and dry materials without clogging.

The ALLU TS drums are available with two different blade types: standard blades for screening applications and axe blades when a crushing or shredding effect is required. Blade sizes available include 16-32 mm, 25-50 mm and 35 mm.

The latest development enables several different fragment sizes from a single unit. Fragment size estimation is based on screening comb distance, with it being quick and easy to change from one screening job to another, providing more versatile processing.

ALLU introduces new app version at bauma 2019

Leading Finnish recycler invests in Allu Transformers

The exciting capabilities of the Allu range of Transformers have seen leading Finnish recycling company, Remeo, invest in a D series attachment.

The processing power of the Transformer has proven to be particularly effective in dealing with demolition waste and recycling asphalt.

The Allu Transformer series comprises of an excavator/ loader/ tractor mounted processing bucket which screens, pulverizes, aerates, blends, mixes, separates, crushes, feeds and loads materials. This results in the feed material being effectively transformed into highly valuable products, making any business more efficient, and more profitable. 

Catering for applications of all sizes, and capable of processing any material that can be screened and sorted, the Allu Transformer series comprises of the compact DL & D Series, as well as the truly massive M and G Series. All are designed to transform the way in which material handling and processing businesses are able to improve their efficiency and profitability. 

The Allu Transformer, whatever its size and configuration, is ideal for recycling, processing concrete, waste, soil, sand, rocks and minerals as it also aerates, as well as screening, loading and crushing, all of which can be carried out on site. This truly mobile solution provides the versatility and flexibility to enable work to be accomplished more efficiently even in the most challenging environments. This results in substantial savings in material and transport costs, as no time is lost when waiting for replacement material.

One such company that has been keen to take advantage of the Allu range is leading Finnish environmental management company, Remeo. The processing power of the recently acquired D Series Transformer has proven to be particularly effective in dealing with demolition waste and recycling asphalt. 

Remeo employs in the region of 350 people, and utilises a specialist fleet of recycling fleet of equipment consisting of over 200 vehicles. With offices located throughout Finland, the company’s comprehensive collection network channels waste for recycling to its nine recycling stations. Materials are here recycled and treated in plants before being delivered for appropriate further handling, or for processing as an industrial raw material.

The Allu attachment has enabled Remeo to utilise its existing fleet of excavators and loaders to deal with materials either on site, in the case of demolition waste and road planings, or load screened material directly onto its haulage fleet. As the processing power of the Allu Transformer reduces weight by up to 50% (by screening out valuable materials prior to hauling) this increases the efficiency of its operation, as well as reducing emissions from its haulage fleet.

Remeo processes the waste it receives into valuable products at its recycling centres that are resold and reused. Any materials that cannot be recycled are much reduced, thereby reducing any landfill costs by up to 80%. This makes Remeo’s investment in Allu Transformers both environmentally friendly, and highly cost effective.
