Recycling Linköping
Need help with recycling and waste management in Linköping?
Norditek has the technology to better sort out fractions to increase material recycling. For example, of all the household waste that goes to incineration to become energy, a large part of the waste can instead be sorted out to go to material recycling and composting.
The waste hierarchy and Norditek
According to the waste hierarchy, waste should be prevented first and recycled second. Through our waste management solutions, we can increase the separation of waste. For example, picking analyses show that more than 60% of residual household waste, which currently goes to waste incineration, could be recycled.
The largest amount of mixed waste comes from construction and demolition waste. There are also several solutions to increase material recycling, such as solutions for metal recycling and plastic recycling.
Different methods of waste management
Waste management always depends on what the material looks like and what properties the waste has. There are no standard solutions for handling waste, which is why Norditek has invested heavily in developing great flexibility in its facilities. What matters is the type of waste but also local and geographical conditions. With Norditek's mobile recycling facilities, it is often possible to handle the waste on site.
Recycling of slag in Linköping
Slag or ash from waste incineration is the residual product left after energy recovery from waste or waste wood.
Why should you recycle slag? Ash contains magnetic metals (iron) and non-magnetic metals (copper, brass, aluminum). These metals have a high economic value and can be recycled almost any number of times without losing their properties.

Major environmental benefits from proper waste management
These are achieved if a product does not need to be manufactured at all. Therefore, it is important to always explore the possibilities of sustainable waste management. When it is possible to avoid the mining of virgin materials, the production of plastics, the extraction of metals, etc. we want to do so.
Reducing waste is good because it reduces the need for energy and natural resources to produce products that then become waste. Waste prevention also involves reducing the use of hazardous substances that may be present in small quantities in different products. Hazardous substances that can cause great harm if they end up in the wrong place, such as plastics in recycled compost soil.
Producer responsibility becomes more important in waste management
Today there is a statutory producer responsibility for such things as waste paper, packaging, pharmaceuticals, electronic waste, batteries and tires. Producer responsibility is also relevant for new product areas, which means new opportunities to manage waste in a more environmentally friendly way. We see this not least in several customer projects where there are good opportunities to develop waste management.
