IARC 2019: For the first time, JOEST took part in the International Automobile Recycling Congress in Vienna

At the IARC, JOEST presented the new, patented RecoverMax® system

From the 20. – 22.03.2019, the IARC (International Automobile Recycling Congress) took place in the Marriott Hotel in Vienna. For three days, over 220 participants form 25 countries discussed the newest trends of the industry concerning the economical recycling of discarded vehicles. In addition to the 24 presentations and a following panel discussion, there was a trade show with 21 exhibitors.
Here, JOEST presented the new RecoverMax® System alongside the well proven Zig Zag Seperator. The RecoverMax® system recovers nonferrous metals from the fine ASR-fraction (Automobile Shredder Residue) in an energy efficient matter.
The patented system was presented to the interested business professionals by JOEST’S export manager and Austrian agent from the company HAGI. Therefore, the annual congress was an attractive opportunity for JOEST to promote the rollout of the RecoverMax® in Europe.
Since no other market is currently experiencing such radical changes as the automobile sector, there was a broad spectrum of topics. The focus lied on electro mobility, the resulting challenges of transporting and recycling Lithium-Ion batteries, and the sorting and classification of scrap from the Automobile-Shredder-Fraction.
At the congress, the vast amount of interest in future orientated solutions for processing Automobile-Shredder scrap was confirmed once again. JOEST is happy to contribute to an efficient circular economy with the RecoverMax® system.
