The recycling process
The process of recycling electric cables involves several steps:
Sorting
The cables are sorted based on their type and composition.
Shredding
The cables are shredded into smaller pieces to separate the different materials.
Separation
The copper, aluminum, and plastic components are separated using magnetic and mechanical processes.
Processing
The separated materials are processed further to extract pure metals and plastics.
Recycling
The recovered materials are recycled into new products.
