EU regulations, coal phase-out and construction boom are among the many reasons these days for making the recycling of gypsum highly attractive. However, the process needs to be cost-efficient. BHS-Sonthofen developed a process that entails two crushing stages. This makes it even possible to recycle any adhering impurities.

BHS-Sonthofen RPM 1513 impact mill benefits Indian sand manufacturer, whilst two RSMX centrifugal crushers help Stevin Rock create high-quality concrete sands.

Mixing concrete for more than 1100 windmills of Europe’s biggest wind farm is no small task. Which is why Tecwill Oy, a Finnish expert for concrete batching plants, puts his trust in a twin-shaft batch mixer from BHS-Sonthofen.

Sand manufacturer Kasprs Build Mate inaugurated a new plant for processing off-spec particles in Pune/India, in mid-2019. The centerpiece of the plant is the rotor impact mill from BHS-Sonthofen, which, in contrast to conventional VSI rotor crushers, even further reduces fine grain sizes. Kasprs can thus make use of off-spec material of other companies to produce high-quality Plaster Sand and Dry Mortar Sand for the construction industry. High economic efficiency goes hand in hand with the conservation of natural sand reserves.

Dragados UK & Ireland, una sucursal constructora del grupo español ACS, emplea la tecnología de mezcla de BHS-Sonthofen para producir hormigón en la ampliación del puerto de Aberdeen (Escocia), valorada en unos 400 millones de euros. Con el hormigón se fabricarán un total de 9.000 acrópodos aproximadamente que se emplearán como protección exterior de los rompeolas norte y sur. Para ello, Industrias Leblan suministró a Dragados una planta fija que incluía una amasadora en "batch" de doble eje BHS.

For almost a year, a BHS-Sonthofen rotor impact mill has been in operation at Jansen Shredder Recycling BV in Moerdijk, the Netherlands, for the fine processing of automotive shredder residues (ASR). Thanks to years of experience in the processing of metal-bearing waste materials, the experts from Sonthofen found the optimal machine for processing abrasive materials. Wear costs at Jansen have significantly decreased since.
