Problem
Since 1979, Vogel TP has been working on large-scale excavation, construction and maintenance of municipal roads, deconstruction, and CD&E recycling.
Affirming its commitment to sustainability, in 2001 the firm established its own recycling centre in Ebersheim, VVK Recyclage, which processes approximately 80,000 to 100,000 tonnes of CD&E waste annually.
The goal of the recycling plant is to achieve zero waste, maintain self-sufficiency and create a circular economy, by using the washed recycled material from the company’s construction activities, and investing in renewable energies.
Vogel TP sought expertise from us, with our vast knowledge in wet processing and creating sustainable recycling solutions.
Solution
Working with Vogel TP, we designed a waste recycling plant, which processes up to 80tph of CD&E waste with up to 25% of fines below 63µm.
The turnkey solution comprises of our R4500 primary feeding and scalping screening system, AggMax™ 83SR logwasher with RotoMax heavy duty blades, EvoWash™ sand wash plant, AquaCycle™ thickener A600 and Filter Press filtration system for efficient recycling of up to 96% of the process water.
The facility is sheltered by a roof host of 3,000m2 photovoltaic panels providing energy for the operation, allowing the plant to be self-sufficient.
The plant contains 2,900m3 of water stock in tanks located underneath the plant as well as a rainwater collection system, combined with the AquaCycle and Filter Press water management and recycling system, this allows the plant to operate in a closed circuit.
With our technology, Vogel TP can better control its supply chain, ensure high quality materials are used in its public works activities as well as contributing to the circular economy.
Result
Our solution, which was commissioned in March 2022, is allowing VVK Recyclage to produce 0-1 mm and 0-4 mm sands, 4-16 mm, 16-20mm, 22-80 mm and a +80 mm oversized aggregates as well as filter cake to be used as construction materials, road works materials, utilities, pipe-bedding material and concrete.
The solution also includes a design service, technical expertise and support for the whole duration of the installation and beyond, with the CustomCare after sales service.
The project marks a major step forward for sustainability in the Alsace construction industry and a steadfast commitment from Vogel TP to lead the way in this space.
Join us for the VVK Recyclage Open Day:
VVK and CDE are pleased to open the doors of the VVK Recyclage facility in Ebersheim, France, for an upcoming open day.
At the open day, you will meet the CDE and VVK teams for a tour of the site and the 80tph wet treatment facility, with a detailed demonstration of each stage of the inert waste recovery process.
Covered to protect it from the weather and facilitate maintenance, this innovative site includes a photovoltaic roof and underground tanks to collect rainwater and operate in a closed circuit, making it the first recycling facility in France to operate autonomously.
