This article offers a comprehensive selection guide for waste home appliance recycling and disassembly equipment. It aims to help you strike the optimal balance between environmental protection and efficiency. Vary Tech, a pioneer in this field, provides innovative technologies and solutions.With the rapid upgrade of electronic products, recycling and disassembling waste appliances has become essential in the environmental protection industry. This guide provides a comprehensive overview of equipment selection for waste appliance recycling and disassembly, helping businesses achieve the optimal balance between environmental responsibility and efficiency. Vary Tech, a pioneer in this field, offers innovative technologies and solutions.
Understanding the basic process is critical. Generally, the workflow includes three stages: pre-disassembly, harmless treatment & resource recovery, and high-value utilization of outputs.
For example, in refrigerator recycling, pre-disassembly involves manual removal of plastic parts, electrical boxes, wires, glass, drawers, partitions, sealing strips, and circuit boards. Fluorocarbon recovery machines extract refrigerants, while compressors undergo oil draining via drilling. Fiber-based insulation materials are also removed at this stage.
Material purity directly impacts downstream value. Metals (copper, aluminum, iron) and plastics are key focuses. Recycled plastics are typically processed into regenerated plastic pellets.
Vary Tech’s equipment covers the entire process, delivering end-to-end solutions.
The recycling line is the core of operations. Automated, intelligent lines offer market advantages. Key equipment includes:
Crushing Equipment: Dual-shaft shredders and vertical crushers.
Dual-shaft shredders: Shear, tear, and compress materials into smaller pieces.
Vertical crushers: Use multi-stage crushing for uniform output.
Sorting Equipment: Magnetic separators, eddy current separators, airflow sorters, and optical sorters for precise metal/non-metal separation.
Vary Tech’s lines achieve a maximum capacity of 200 units/hour.
Material purity boosts economic value and reuse potential. Vary Tech’s advanced sorting technology ensures high separation accuracy. For example, in the China Zhongzai Zihuan Hubei Appliance Recycling Project, achieved rates include:
Iron: 99%
Copper/Aluminum: 97%
Plastics: 97%
Combined sorting methods (magnetic, eddy current, airflow, color sorting) ensure resource classification accuracy. 
Dust removal systems are vital for worker safety and regulatory compliance. Vary Tech’s systems include:
Pulse bag dust collectors
Activated carbon towers
UV photolysis
These ensure eco-friendly operations.
Businesses must assess their needs holistically. Vary Tech has delivered 100+ global recycling systems, processed 100 million+ refrigerators, and offers consultation from 60 R&D engineers. Their solutions balance performance, ROI, and environmental impact.
Integrating smart recognition and IoT, Vary Tech continues to innovate. Equipment selection requires systematic analysis of technical, economic, and environmental factors.
