What materials can be recycled from waste wires and cables?

2024-09-11

Waste wires and cables include power cables, control cables, heat-resistant wires, insulated wires, bare wires, radio frequency cables, and communication cables. These waste cables can be recycled. When collecting cables, there are cable accessories, such as cable connection pipes, terminal blocks, steel plate wiring troughs, cable trays, cable terminal junction boxes, cable intermediate junction boxes, etc. Some of these are steel and some are iron.

Waste cable materials Wires and cables are processed from conductors. Insulation, shielding, cabling, and sheathing are added layer by layer on the outside of the conductor to make wire and cable products. The more complex the structure, the more layers are superimposed, and the higher the requirements for equipment used for recycling. The various materials used in the manufacture of wires and cables are not only of many types, varieties, and specifications, but also of large numbers of materials. This puts forward higher requirements for the decomposition, recycling, reuse, and waste treatment of waste wires and cables. If waste cables want to obtain greater value, they need higher processes and equipment. There are many manufacturers on the market who hype that one set of equipment can recycle waste wires and cables, and the price is high and low. After using it, it is found that it is not the case at all. You should know that separating copper and aluminum together is labor-consuming, time-consuming and wasteful. If there is steel in it, it will also cause great wear on the knife, and the vulnerable parts of the equipment will not last long.

Copper cable processing machine Therefore, if you want to sort out copper, aluminum, plastic skin, rubber, etc. with higher purity, you need to match it with suitable equipment, optimize the process, and add auxiliary equipment to separate the iron inside, so that the material obtained by crushing and sorting is of high purity and can be sold better.
