Tomra Systems - nyheter
Slik jeg ser det, er Tomra Systems et fantastisk, grønt teknologiselskap. Globalt ledende og perfekt rigget for å betjene sterkt økende etterspørsel innen alle selskapets forretningsområder, i tiår fremover. Velger å starte denne tråden på forumet for 'Grønne aksjer'.
Har benyttet kursfallet den senere tid til å ta en posisjon i Tomra Systems. Dette fordi jeg er av den oppfatning at man skal lete lenge etter et mer opplagt langsiktig investeringsobjekt. Best mulig kurs er selvsagt å foretrekke, men er ikke så veldig opptatt av kortsiktige bevegelser i aksjekursen. Hensikten med denne trådstarten er primært å poste noen lenker av og til, til nyheter jeg måtte komme over som følge av at jeg er interessert i hva som skjer i og rundt selskapet (*). Bare hos Nordnet er det 7 819 aksjeieiere i Tomra Systems, ifølge megleren. Så selv om det er 'helt stille' rundt selskapet her på forumet, tenker jeg likevel at det kan være et visst 'marked' for litt nytt, en gang i blant.

TOMRA Mining sees service as a critical element of its offer to mining operations and is constantly evaluating the best way to support its customers by listening to them. As part of this effort, it has engaged B2B Research, a reputed Business-to-Business market research company, to conduct a Customer Survey in 2018 and a second one in the first quarter of 2024 to assess the quality of its service and collect feedback from customers.
The surveys covered the different aspects of TOMRA Mining’s service activities, from the back office’s availability and the competence of its technical support team to the quality of work of its service engineers. The respondents represented a variety of roles within the customers’ organisations, including maintenance, operations, plant and process management, parts sourcing, and service planning.
Outstanding customer satisfaction with TOMRA Mining’s Service Team
Customer survey reveals standout satisfaction with TOMRA Mining Overall, the service team was awarded an average score of 6.3 on a 7-point scale, a further improvement on the already high score of 6.0 achieved in 2018.
The surveys also asked customers how likely they would be to recommend TOMRA Mining to calculate the company’s Net Promoter Score (NPS). Paul Walsh, Director at B2B Research, explains: “TOMRA Mining’s NPS (likely to recommend) increased from +38 in 2018 to a very strong +57 in 2024, which shows hard work and dedication from the Service Team.

Minner om at supermarkedkjeden Carrefour kjørte en rekke promotion-jippoer med pantemaskoner i forkant av åpningen av det rumenske pantesystemet (åpnet i år), i samarbeid med blant andre TOMRA Collection og Coca-Cola. TOMRAs bidrag til disse var da selvfølgelig pantemaskinene.
Og nå er altså Carrefour allerede i gang med å kjøre piloter i Polen (pantesystemet i Polen har oppstart 01.01.2025). Samarbeidpatnere oppgis å være en systemoperatør, en logistikkansvarlig og en drikkevareprodusent.
Hvem som levererer pantemaskinene til pilotene står det ingenting om. Så her får det være opp til hver enkelt å spekulere.

Pilbara Minerals debuts lithium ore sorter at Pilgangoora
According to the company, the facility is the largest of its kind in the southern hemisphere and the largest in the world for lithium processing.
Claire Jenns
August 5, 2024
Lithium and tantalite mining company Pilbara Minerals has completed its P680 expansion project with a new crushing and ore sorting facility at the Pilgangoora operation in WA.
The facility, which crushes and separates the lithium ore from waste, is the largest of its kind in the southern hemisphere and the largest in the world for lithium processing, said Pilbara Minerals.
With an ore sorting capacity of more than 1,000 tonnes per hour, the technology is expected to increase Pilgangoora’s production capacity by 30%.
It also underpins the next phase of expansion to one million tonnes per annum through the P1000 project.
The P680 project is a key part of Pilbara Minerals’ phased growth strategy to unlock the full potential of the Pilgangoora asset.
The $404m (A$622.68m) project was supported through loans from Export Finance Australia and the Northern Australia Infrastructure Facility, representing a total sum of $250m from the Australian Government.
During the two-year construction phase, more than 350 direct jobs were created. Around 300 additional jobs above the pre-P680 baseline are expected to be sustained over the operating life of the mine.
Pilbara Minerals’ managing director and CEO Dale Henderson commented: “Financing support from the Australian Government for the development of critical minerals underpinned the P680 Project and signals the government’s strong commitment to ensuring Australia capitalises on the economic opportunities presented by the global clean energy transition.”
WA minister for energy Reece Whitby, who attended the opening ceremony, added that the additional jobs will “underpin our State’s ambitions of becoming a major player in the global energy transition”.
Pilbara Minerals states that its new development represents the next frontier for hard-rock lithium processing. This could boost WA’s part in global lithium production, which reached 170,800 tonnes in 2023 and will see a compound annual growth rate of more than 13% by 2030.

New survey finds over 80% of people in Poland eager for deposit return scheme
30 Jul 2024
81% of people in Poland believe that a deposit return system (DRS) is the best solution to efficiently collect used drink containers for recycling, according to a recent survey of residents across every province in Poland. When asked about the optimal value for the container deposit, respondents indicated that both 50 groszy and 1 zloty would motivate them to return a single package to the store.
...
The vast majority of participants in the survey, 81%, support the introduction of a DRS in Poland, viewing it as the best solution for the effective collection of beverage packaging. The results are consistent regardless of respondents' age, gender, or place of residence.
"“This survey shows that the DRS is a tool that is well received by society as a whole, from the oldest to the youngest generations. People in Poland are waiting for the deposit return system and are ready to make changes in their daily habits."
Anna Sapota, Vice President Public Affairs Eastern Europe North at TOMRA Group
...
The results of this survey speak volumes about the needs of consumers in Poland, who will be key participants in the deposit return system. This is valuable knowledge for stores preparing collection points and key elements in designing an effective deposit return system. Among other things, the amount of recyclable beverage container returns depends on the deposit system’s design, which must be convenient and motivating for consumers.

Quartz mining: Sensor-based sorting helps to extract full value
ByMining Review Africa
July 31, 2024
Sensor-based sorting | The global quartz market has been growing steadily, and this trend is set to continue, demanding increasingly high purity levels. The demand comes from industries with varying requirements, so the most precise mineral sorting is needed. This can be achieved with sensor-based colour and laser sorting technologies – applied individually or in combination.
...
The challenge in quartz sorting
Quartz is one of the most common minerals, found in all rock forms, but doesn’t exist as pure in nature. Its colours range from white and yellow to black, indicating the different contaminants in the mineral. The challenge for mining operations is to meet the specific requirements of the various sectors. The metallurgical and engineered stone industries require reliable delivery of quartz of consistently high chemical purity – and for silicon production and engineered stone manufacturers, a white product with no impurities of the same colour, such as feldspar, is essential.
Other metallurgical sectors will allow varying levels of impurities, with the darker quartz with lower purity going to ferrosilicon production. In addition to meeting these precise requirements, quartz mining operations need to achieve the capacity to meet the rising demand while ensuring their profitability and reducing their environmental impact.
The solution: sensor-based sorting
TOMRA Mining’s tailored solutions combine its colour and laser sorters to differentiate the minerals by colour, composition and size to meet the specific requirements of the mining operation’s customers. This precise sensor-based sorting delivers the high quality they need while reducing waste and increasing productivity.

Super nyhet!
Den nye Labour-regjeringen vil fremskynde innføringen av pantesystem for hele UK, sier minister.
Dette og det øvrige Mary Creagh uttaler her, er selvfølgelig søt musikk i ørene til TOMRA Collection, TOMRA Recycling og TOMRA Horizon.
Det er vel ikke å ta for sterkt i å påstå at den avgåtte Tory- regjeringen 'slepte benene etter seg' på disse områdene.
Circular Economy Minister says DRS to launch before Oct 2027
Environment and Energy, Circular Economy, Legislation and Regulation
1st August 2024
Mary Creagh, minister with responsibility for circular economy, has said the government plans to launch a deposit return scheme for drinks containers before October 2027.
Liberal Democrat Deputy Leader Daisy Cooper asked Creagh whether the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra), whether he plans to introduce a deposit return scheme (DRS) for drinks containers before October 2027.
Responding to the parliamentary question, Creagh said: “Yes. This government is committed to creating a roadmap to a zero-waste economy – a future where we keep our resources in use for longer; waste is reduced; we accelerate the path to net zero, we see investment in critical infrastructure and green jobs; our economy prospers; and nature thrives.

Den nye Labour-regjeringen vil fremskynde innføringen av pantesystem for hele UK, sier minister.
Dette og det øvrige Mary Creagh uttaler her, er selvfølgelig søt musikk i ørene til TOMRA Collection, TOMRA Recycling og TOMRA Horizon.
Det er vel ikke å ta for sterkt i å påstå at den avgåtte Tory- regjeringen 'slepte benene etter seg' på disse områdene.
Circular Economy Minister says DRS to launch before Oct 2027

1st August 2024
Mary Creagh, minister with responsibility for circular economy, has said the government plans to launch a deposit return scheme for drinks containers before October 2027.
Liberal Democrat Deputy Leader Daisy Cooper asked Creagh whether the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra), whether he plans to introduce a deposit return scheme (DRS) for drinks containers before October 2027.
Responding to the parliamentary question, Creagh said: “Yes. This government is committed to creating a roadmap to a zero-waste economy – a future where we keep our resources in use for longer; waste is reduced; we accelerate the path to net zero, we see investment in critical infrastructure and green jobs; our economy prospers; and nature thrives.
“We are reviewing the suite of packaging reforms and are going to work with our devolved government counterparts, industry and other stakeholders to determine the next steps for the DRS. I would be happy to update the House in due course.”

Signifikant nyhet.
En ny æra gryr med den globale markedslederen Tomra i hovedrolle!
I våre dager har et positivt omdømme når det gjelder bærekraft etterhvert blitt et veldig viktig salgsargument for produsenter av forbrukervarer.
Så viktig at vi i dag får presentert nyheten om at Henkel integrerer Tomras teknologi direkte inn i sin virksomhet, for å sikre at produkter når markedet i en emballasje som allerede i utgangspunktet er optimalisert med henblikk på bærekraft.
TOMRA supports Henkel to optimize packaging for recycling
Product manufacturers have a major role to play in the success of recycling. Both TOMRA and Henkel recognize this and are working together to test the consumer-goods producer's packaging for sortability, prior to market launch.
30 Jul 2024
TOMRA Recycling and Henkel, an international operator in the consumer goods and adhesives industry, want to further advance the sortability of packaging. The manufacturer of globally recognized branded products such as Schwarzkopf, Persil and Pritt has installed one of TOMRA’s detection systems in its test laboratory. Going forward, this will be used to test packaging before it is launched on the market to see whether it has the right properties for easy sorting and recycling, after disposal.
Dr. Volker Rehrmann, EVP and Head of TOMRA Recycling: "Sorting is an essential step in ensuring that packaging can be recycled instead of ending up in incineration plants. At TOMRA, we know how product packaging needs to be designed so that modern sorting technologies can recognize it clearly, and we have made it our mission to share this knowledge. A functioning circular economy is only possible if everyone involved in the value chain works together. That’s why collaborations like the one with Henkel are so important."
“Design for Recycling”
The test system at Henkel’s site in Düsseldorf is TOMRA’s AUTOSORT™ , which has been on the market for almost 30 years and is a multi-functional sorting solution. The scanner is equipped with a near-infrared and a VIS sensor. Using this sensor combination, the device not only detects the product material type, such as plastics like PP, PET, HDPE or paper, but also the color of the packaging, which can be decisive for sortability. The AUTOSORT™ has been installed in around 100 countries worldwide to date, enabling Henkel to quickly and efficiently achieve results that meet those of real-life industrial plants.
Alba Santmarti, Packaging Sustainability Manager at Henkel Consumer Brands, adds: "Design for Recycling is an integral part of the product development process at Henkel. We invest in our in-house capacities to check the sortability of our consumer goods packaging at an early stage. This is the only way to recycle valuable materials in subsequent steps and close material cycles.
In the future, the test sorting system will clarify whether the packaging has the right properties to allow it to be sorted properly and recycled in a second step.

Wyllie Recycling invests in TOMRA to upgrade mixed containers MRF
Wyllie Recycling, one of Scotland’s leading family-owned recycling businesses, has invested in three TOMRA Autosort optical sorters as part of a £3m upgrade at the company’s mixed containers MRF in Perth.
By Waqas Qureshi 25 July 2024
Autosort is a multifunctional sorting system which uses advanced sensors, including NIR (near infrared) and optionally MIR (mid infrared) spectroscopy, to precisely identify different polymer types.
It allows for much more accurate sorting than traditional methods which rely on colour or shape recognition alone. It is capable of processing large volumes of material quickly and its compact and ultra-flexible design mean it can integrate seamlessly into both new and existing plants.

John Gilmour, commercial manager, Wyllie Recycling, said: “When we began planning our MRF upgrade, we wanted a proven technology which would be reliable, affordable and, critically, could produce the material quality requirements of our buyers. TOMRA’s Autosort units deliver on all of these counts. We are achieving excellent tonnage throughput and high purity levels, without incurring any additional labour costs. We’ve gone from selling our recovered polymers as mixed plastic bottles to producing six grades of exceptionally high purity food-grade products"

Like magic: Vertex Minerals reveals 337pc grade increase as it looks to restart Reward gold mine
Story by Special Report
• 1d • 2 min read
...
Special Report: Vertex Minerals has announced a whopping 337.2% increase in grade during ore sorting to 16.22g/t gold as it gears up to restart the Reward gold mine in NSW.
...
Vertex Minerals (ASX:VTX) has now completed an ore sorting test program with TOMRA to assess the potential of upgrading the ore prior to further processing through the Hill End gravity gold mill. Low grade stockpiles have shown an excellent response to ore sorting with 79% mass reduction achieved with a corresponding gold recovery of 94%.
...
Vertex believes the ore sorting technology can positively impact the sustainability and profitability of its operations at Reward by processing high-grade ore post sorting, resulting in reduced energy and water consumption, leading to lower operating costs and a reduced carbon footprint.
“The ore sorting results are compelling and confirm the Reward gold ore is perfectly suited for this technology,” Vertex executive chairman Roger Jackson said.

Tomra GAINnext sorting device targets UBCs
Equipment provider says its sorting device uses deep learning technology to identify used beverage cans in mixed material streams.
BRIAN TAYLOR | JULY 18, 2024
The Tomra Recycling business unit of Norway-based Tomra Systems ASA says its new packaging sorting device GAINnext uses deep learning technology—a subset of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning—to identify different types of containers on a moving belt.
GAINnext, now available in North America, offers what Tomra says is a high-throughput solution for used beverage can (UBC) aluminum recovery that delivers 98 percent purity or higher without manual sorting.
...
Tomra says GAINnext has been developed as an end-of-line solution for MRFs that can be integrated into existing lines with the object of lowering overall costs and improving sorting line ROI.
“Tomra’s experience with AI spans decades as our optical sorting equipment leverages traditional AI to automate sorting lines," says Indrajeed Prasad, product manager of deep learning at Tomra Recycling. "GAINnext is trained to see what the human eye can see and detects thousands of objects by visual differences in milliseconds.
"The deep learning subset of AI creates a hierarchical level of artificial neurons to solve the most complex sorting tasks. We are delighted that our new application focuses on the critical recovery of UBC aluminum cans and offers customers above 98 percent purity rates.”

Under Q2 2024 presentasjonen nå fredag 19.juli opplyste Tomra-ledelsen at TOMRA Collection kom ut noe sterkere enn forventet fra kvartalet som en følge av større inntekter enn forventet i Østerrike og Romania. Østerrikes pantesystem går først live i 2025, men vi vet at TOMRA Collection allerede en god stund har jobbet med f.eks. supermarkedkjeden HOFER i Østerrike.
Når det gjelder Romania, gikk rumenernes pantesystem live i år. Konkret hvilke aktører/butikkjeder i TOMRA Collection jobber med, vet jeg ikke. TOMRA Collection melder sjelden spesifikt om den type avtaler. Det vi imidlertid vet, er at TOMRA Collection har stått for pantemaskinene i hele 5 promotion-kampanjer fungerte som oppkjøring frem mot åpningen av det rumenske pantesystemet, sammen med bl.a. Carrefour og Coca-Cola.
CARREFOUR ROMANIA IS LAUNCHING THE LAST EDITION OF THE “PAYMENT WITH PET” PROGRAM

Carrefour is present with hypermarkets, in partnership with Coca-Cola HBC Romania, GreenPoint Management, TOMRA, FEPRA and ECO Synergy. The program aims to facilitate the transition of consumers to the European standards of selective collection by promoting nature-friendly habit and behavior.

Så til denne ferske nyhet fra Polen om at Carrefour, Polen er i full gang med oppkjøringen mot åpningen av det som blir verdens nest største pantesystem (etter Tyskland) og går live 01.01.2025. Som man kan lese, uttaler Carrefour at bare det aller beste er godt nok for butikkjeden. Tenker det må være lov å være litt optimist på vegne av Tomra her.
"We are working to ensure that Carrefour stands out from other stores receiving packaging, not only in terms of quality and customer convenience, but also in terms of speed of service and positive shopping experiences" - says Sylwester Mroczek, Manager of the Formats and Trade Concepts Development Department.
CARREFOUR POLSKA HAS STARTED INSTALLING AUTOMATIC BOTTLE MACHINES. THIS IS PREPARATION FOR THE DEPOSIT SYSTEM
21/07/2024 NEWS
The aim of the Carrefour initiative is to actively involve Poles in the recovery of secondary raw materials as quickly as possible and facilitate their access to return points for used packaging throughout the country.
Carrefour Polska has started installing automatic bottle machines in Warsaw, under which the network will collect from customers 3 fractions of waste covered by the deposit system starting on January 1, 2025.
Although legislative work on the final shape of the deposit system in Poland is still ongoing, further initiatives are appearing on the market aimed at preparing Poles for the new law and changing their current habits in dealing with waste such as plastic, glass or aluminum. The latest of them is the installation of machines in Warsaw's Carrefour stores allowing the return of used plastic bottles and aluminum beverage cans, as well as returnable glass bottles.
PETfur
Automatic bottle machines with the humorous name PETfur are created both in hypermarkets belonging to the chain, as well as smaller stores, such as supermarkets and local stores. Carrefour is one of the largest omnichannel chains in Poland, which has over 800 stores in our country and operates in almost every market format. This company is also a significant manufacturer, as it already offers over 4,000 products under its own brand. This means that, in accordance with the new act, its obligation will not only be to collect beverage packaging from customers and calculate and pay a deposit, but also to collect the quantities of packaging for products placed on the market provided for in the regulations.
- The installation of machines for collecting used packaging in our Warsaw stores is another step towards Carrefour Polska launching a full-fledged deposit system in accordance with the requirements of the Act this year. Our goal is, on the one hand, to prepare our stores for active participation in the new system, but also to educate the Polish public about the benefits of returning deposit packaging. We created the humorous name PETfur for our bottle machines to also reach the young generation, which is one of the largest groups consuming drinks in PET packaging. We have been testing various models of this system in various formats of our stores for almost 3 years. We have developed know-how, which we will now gradually scale into our entire chain of stores. Today we are ready to accept 100% glass returnable bottles from customers, and we are currently focusing on refining the PET and aluminum handling model. We are working to ensure that Carrefour stands out from other stores receiving packaging, not only in terms of quality and customer convenience, but also in terms of speed of service and positive shopping experiences - says Sylwester Mroczek, Manager of the Formats and Trade Concepts Development Department.
3 years of testing, 20 million collected packages and 45 million bottles
Carrefour is one of the first retail chains in Poland to start preparations for the implementation of the deposit system. Already in December 2020, the chain in its Warsaw stores began manual collection of returnable glass bottles without the need to show proof of their purchase and paying customers a full deposit in payment vouchers.
To date, Carrefour has already received over 45 million glass bottles from customers, which means more than twice as much reception of this type of packaging as their sales in all chain stores during the test period.
In January 2023, the company expanded its preparations for the implementation of the deposit system and, together with EKOPunkt Packaging Recovery Organization, started automatic collection of beverage packaging in 10 hyper- and supermarkets in the Silesian Voivodeship. As part of it, Carrefour began accepting used plastic and aluminum packaging from customers, paying 15 groszy for each piece, and customers receive these funds in the form of e-vouchers with which they can immediately pay for purchases. This test is still being carried out, and over the past 1.5 years the company has managed to collect over 20 million packages from customers that have been professionally recycled.
In March 2024, she created and presented the first product in Poland that meets all the requirements of the new act and sets trends in the upcoming deposit system. It is mineral water produced under Carrefour's own brand and offered in a 0.5 liter plastic package. The bottle label of this water is equipped with a two-dimensional code compliant with the GS1 standard, which provides much more information about the product and data important in the supply chain and returnable packaging circulation.
The code allows, among other things, to optimize key business processes on the part of entities operating the deposit system, and significantly increases the security of returnable packaging circulation, protecting it against possible abuses. The bottle label also contains information about the deposit amount, the deposit system operator, and recommends not crushing the packages and returning them to recover the deposit.

It is mineral water produced under Carrefour's own brand and offered in a 0.5 liter plastic package. The bottle label of this water is equipped with a two-dimensional code compliant with the GS1 standard, which provides much more information about the product and data important in the supply chain and returnable packaging circulation.
The code allows, among other things, to optimize key business processes on the part of entities operating the deposit system, and significantly increases the security of returnable packaging circulation, protecting it against possible abuses. The bottle label also contains information about the deposit amount, the deposit system operator, and recommends not crushing the packages and returning them to recover the deposit.

Britene har omsider bestemt seg for å innføre pantesystem for plastflasker og bokser (Wales argumenterer foreløpig også for glassflasker) for hele UK i 2027.
Nå kommer britisk avfallsindustri på banen med krav om innføring av ERP (Extended Producer Responsibility) og pantesystem for batterier, inklusive produkter med ladbare batterier.
Tenker vi foreløpig kun er i startfasen når det gjelder sirkulær økonomi og at knapt noen er posisjonert som Tomra Systems når det gjelder å lede an i og profittere på (den teknologiske) utviklingen som venter innen sirkulær økonomi (resirkulering og gjenbruk).
CIWM white paper calls for reform to UK battery recycling
CIWM, Circular Economy, Legislation and Regulation
22nd July 2024
CIWM has called for extended producer responsibility (EPR) for batteries (and products containing batteries) and a targeted deposit return scheme (DRS).
The Chartered Institution of Wastes Management (CIWM) made the call in its new “An EPR of Everything, Starting with Batteries” white paper.
The white paper is based on an extensive research programme report commissioned by CIWM and carried out by env23 Ltd.
The white paper identified the lack of clear and impactful consumer information; the dramatic increase of batteries in everyday items; and the failure of producer responsibility rules to keep pace with the changing chemistry and pervasiveness of battery technology as the three main reasons for their incorrect disposal.
CIWM said the fires caused by the batteries people dispose of are causing a “major crisis” for the waste and resource management sector, taxpayers and the communities in which they occur.
In 2022-23, there were more than 1200 fires caused, or suspected to be caused, by batteries at UK waste and recycling facilities or in collection vehicles.
The cost of damage and lost time from lithium-ion battery waste fires is estimated to be in the region of 158 million, according to research by Eunomia from 2021.
The vast majority of these fires were avoidable and resulted from batteries, in particular high powered, rechargeable batteries that should not have been placed in a bin but taken to a collection point, CIWM said.
Consumer research undertaken for the report found that 40% of those surveyed chose the “wrong” option when asked how to dispose of an electric toothbrush.
Where batteries can be removed, however, they are much more likely to be taken back to a retailer or collection point with almost 70% of people saying they would do so.
The report found a strong level of public support for the use of deposits for items such as batteries, with 51% saying they would use the scheme on “all or most occasions” and a further 32% saying they would use it on “some” occasions.

New report on advanced sorting and plastic circularity in Europe
Can advanced sorting contribute to plastic circularity in Europe?
A new report, researched and drafted by Eunomia Research and Consulting, commissioned by Amcor and TOMRA, explores how marker and object recognition sorting technology can contribute to circularity and traceability in plastic packaging recycling in Europe.
18 Jul 2024 5 min
The report, entitled Advanced Sorting for Circularity, published today, finds that for many plastic packaging formats, further optimisation of existing sorting technologies is likely to be sufficient for improved circularity. For the remaining sorting challenges, object recognition could be the most cost-effective advanced sorting technology to facilitate increased circularity, including when compared to marker technology.
The plastic packaging industry is currently facing a growing demand for increased sustainability, particularly in increasing recycled content and fostering a circular economy. This pressure varies across Europe but is predominantly driven by public and governmental demands, leading to brand owners adopting more sustainable practices. EU legislation also enacts requirements around packaging, particularly the anticipated Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR), expected to go into effect later in 2024.
This new report explores how marker and object recognition sorting technologies can contribute to circularity and traceability in plastic packaging recycling, specifically within the EU, Norway, Switzerland, and the UK.

God helg.
Tomra-aksjen stiger over ni prosent på Oslo Børs.
Analytiker Andreas Nibe Nygård i Nordea sier til E24 at driftsresultatet (ebit) på 39 millioner euro var 30 prosent bedre enn ventet.
– Det er veldig sterkt og det er bra i alle segment. Ting ser veldig bra ut, sier han.
Nygård fremhever at pantesegmentet («collection») leverer bra.
– Ledelsen kom med tiltak innen matsegmentet («food») sensommeren i fjor som nå viser seg å ha bra effekt og innen «recycling» så har dagens marginer og resultat fjernet tvilen som kom i forrige kvartal, sier han.
«Collection» omfatter selskapets flaskepant-maskiner. «Recycling» er sorteringssystemer til bruk på ressurser som malm og mineraler, og «food» er sortering av tørket og fersk frukt og prosessert mat som nøtter.

Tomra Systems ASA: TOMRA: 2Q 2024 - Continued strong momentum in Collection; Gross margin improvements across all divisions
I dag kl. 07:00 ∙ Cision
Tomra Systems
TOMRA, the global technology leader in sensor-based solutions for optimal resource productivity, announces its financial results for the second quarter 2024.
Revenues for the Group amounted to 333 MEUR in the quarter, in line with the second quarter last year. Collection revenues grew 15% to 193 MEUR compared to the second quarter 2023, with strong sales in all regions. In Recycling, revenues declined 15% to 57 MEUR compared to the second quarter 2023, in line with the estimated backlog conversion ratio for the quarter. In Food, the softer market sentiment led to a decline in revenues of 16% to 82 MEUR compared to the second quarter 2023, which is a 4 percentage points higher backlog conversion ratio than estimated.
The combined order backlog in Recycling and Food grew 16% to an all-time high 252 MEUR compared to the second quarter last year, despite the order intake being down 12% and 2% to 65 MEUR and 83 MEUR in Recycling and Food respectively.
Gross margins for TOMRA Group increased from 42% to 44% in the second quarter compared to the same period last year, with improvements in all three divisions. Compared to the second quarter last year, Collection's gross margin increased from 39% to 40%, Recycling's from 51% to 53% and Food's from 43% to 45%. The increases are driven by a positive business and product mix as well as price adjustments.
Operating expenses in the quarter were 101 MEUR (excluding 0.5 MEUR one-off costs), which is in line with the previous two quarters.
EBITA, adjusted for one-off costs, was 44 MEUR in the quarter compared to 46 MEUR in the second quarter last year.
Earnings per share excluding one-off costs amounted to 0.08 MEUR in the second quarter compared to 0.09 MEUR in the same quarter last year.
Highlights 2Q 2024 (comparison figures are from the second quarter last year)
Revenues amounted to 333 MEUR in TOMRA Group, in line with last year
Revenue growth of 15% in Collection, but down 15% in Recycling and down 16% in Food
Gross margin of 44%, up from 42%
Operating expenses of 101 MEUR (ex. 0.5 MEUR one-off costs), in line with the previous two quarters
EBITA adj. was 44 MEUR, down 4%
Cash flow from operations was 34 MEUR, up from 3 MEUR
Recycling order intake down 12% to 65 MEUR and order backlog growth of 9% to record high 133 MEUR
Food order intake down 2% to 83 MEUR and order backlog growth of 23% to 119 MEUR
Tove Andersen, President and CEO of TOMRA Systems ASA comments:
"It is great to see the strong momentum continuing in our Collection division, and it is encouraging to see a steady introduction of new deposit return schemes (DRS). Installations of reverse vending machines have continued at a good pace in Romania and Hungary. We are also experiencing high activity in Austria which will introduce DRS for single use containers in January 2025. The market sentiment is still softer in Recycling and Food, where revenues were down as expected in the quarter. Despite this, the order intake was solid and the combined order backlog is at a record high level - highlighting the continued need for automation and increased circularity to enable a world without waste".

Mer jubel for Tomras pantemaskiner, fra ALDI Irland.
De to neste europeiske nasjonene som skal ha pantesystem opp og gå fra 2025 er Polen og Østerrike. ALDI er store både i Polen (blir Europas nest største pantemarked etter Tyskland) og Østerrike. I Østerrike opererer ALDI under navnet HOFER. Og den som har fulgt med på denne tråden, vet at Tomra allerede har jobbet lenge med HIFER i Østerrike.
Har egentlig tenkt at jeg har mitt før Q2 2024 fredag, men blir nesten litt fristet til å øke litt slik kursen nå presses nedover på børsen.

SHOPPERS EMBRACING BOTTLE AND CAN RECYCLING SCHEME IN LAOIS
TUESDAY, JULY 16, 2024
By Joe Barrett
According to Aldi, since the introduction of the Deposit Return Scheme (DRS) in February, more than 730,000 items have deposited in its Reverse Vending Machines (RVMs) in its two stores in Laois.
It said in that time the machines have returned almost €125,000 in vouchers.
The retail giant said that June was the most successful month to date for the DRS at its stores in Portlaoise and Portarlington with 290,000 items returns.
It said its stores have seen a steady increase in the numbers of items returned since the scheme was introduced. Under the scheme empty bottles and cans marked with the Re-turn logo can be returned to the RVMs at all participating retailers, regardless of where the item was originally purchased. Customers receive a voucher for their returned items, which can be put against their shopping bill or returned in cash.
The scheme aims to reduce the amount of litter across towns, villages and the countryside by incentivising consumers to recycle their empty items.
Plastics and Packaging Manager at ALDI Ireland Jason Carolan said: “The DRS scheme has been very popular. Since February of this year, the number of items being returned on a monthly basis has steadily increased.
“We’re sure that it will continue to grow from strength to strength, and we’re excited to see the innovative ways that sports clubs and charitable organisations look to harness its potential.
Managing Director at TOMRA Collection Ireland the supplier of ALDI’s DRS machines Peter Whelan said: “With our reverse vending machines, consumers can be guaranteed of the utmost quality and reliability. The volume of bottles and cans being processed through the machines located across ALDI stores show how customers are really embracing the Irish scheme.”

Whilst the multiparticipant project finetunes the resin quality standards that are poised to become typical for FGrPP, recent trials conducted by NextLooPP together with Tomra have confirmed a breakthrough in the automatic sorting of food-grade PP packaging.
These sorting trials held in February, which combined Tomra’s near-infrared, visual spectrometry with the company’s latest deep-learning technology GAINnext, achieved food-grade purity levels exceeding 95 percent in packaging applications.
This exciting development is a boost to the NextLooPP project, as GAINnext has the potential to be rolled out to all PP packaging sorting facilities and will help produce valuable FGrPP postconsumer recycling (PCR) streams.
By providing a sorted food-grade PP PCR stream, GAINnext™ will enable the NextLooPP decontamination process to be carried out in many more recycling operations globally.
Breaking the final barriers
After close to four years of intense collaboration, the NextLooPP participants are now breaking down the final barriers to producing food-grade recycled PP from postconsumer packaging into new circular economy products, and the NextLooPP team is looking forward to launching the NextLooPP Americas project to achieve similar results.

PRESS RELEASE
PAN GLOBAL ANNOUNCES POSITIVE ORE SORTING RESULT FOR COPPER AND TIN MINERALIZATION AT LA ROMANA PROJECT, SPAIN
VANCOUVER, BC, July 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Pan Global Resources Inc. ("Pan Global" or the "Company") (TSXV: PGZ) (OTCQX: PGZFF) (FRA: 2EU) is pleased to announce a positive result from the initial investigation of X-Ray Transmission ("XRT") sensor technology for sorting and pre-concentration of the La Romana copper and tin mineralization at the Company's 100% owned Escacena Project in the Iberian Pyrite Belt, southern Spain. Drilling continues to test and delineate the western extent of the La Romana copper-tin-silver deposit, which now extends 1.5km east-west over surface.
"The positive result shows very promising potential for sorting and pre-concentration of the copper and tin mineralization at La Romana using TOMRA's XRT+EM technology. This widely used technology has potential to reduce costs through the removal of waste material prior to ore processing and help maximize the efficiency and recovery of valuable material downstream," said Tim Moody, Pan Global's President & CEO.
"Ore sorting may also increase options to process La Romana material at nearby mine facilities and enhance product value by increasing average grades in the pre-concentrated material being delivered and reducing overall volumes for processing. A further potential benefit is to lower environmental impacts. The latest generation of ore sorting technology is being adopted at a number of operating mines to improve profitability, including for copper, tin, and other commodities."
Highlights
La Romana Ore Sorting Tests
Pan Global recently sent samples from La Romana to the TOMRA Sorting Mining Test Centre ("TOMRA") in Wedel, Germany. A total of 30 individual rock fragments were passed through TOMRA's COM Tertiary XRT equipment and electromagnetic (EM) sensor. This included copper and tin mineralization, and barren or low-grade material. The results demonstrate a correlation of the mineralization with the XRT response which is a key indicator of the applicability of the XRT+EM sorting technology at La Romana. The test program is being managed and coordinated by Minepro Solutions SL (Spain).
Next steps include a larger sample volume to investigate the sorting efficiency, and assess the economic benefits in the La Romana processing flowsheet. Minepro are continuing work on improving the processing flowsheet, basic engineering design, and preliminary cost estimates ahead of an initial scoping study and Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA).
Sensor-based Ore Sorting Technology
TOMRA is a leading manufacturer of sensor-based sorting technologies for the global mining industry. The XRT (X-Ray Transmission) technology can make it possible to recognize and separate materials depending on their specific atomic density. This technology enables high separation performance in the classification of materials based on their composition.
The latest generation TOMRA sorting technology is designed to provide stable performance, increased capacity, higher recoveries, and reduced cost. It can be placed at various points in a standard mining and processing flowsheet, including the pre-concentration phase, and allows for high volume throughput.
Sensor-based sorting is increasingly being applied in the mining industry to increase productivity, reduce total cash costs, and capital expenditure. Other positive benefits include reducing energy, water, and reagent consumption, reducing waste or tailings volumes, and potential lower cut-off grades and/or upgrade mining reserves. Reducing the volumes of low-grade or barren material being processed also reduces the overall environmental impact.
About the Escacena Project
The Escacena Project comprises a large, contiguous, 5,760-hectare land package controlled 100% by Pan Global in the east of the Iberian Pyrite Belt. Escacena is located near the operating mine at Riotinto and is immediately adjacent to the former Aznalcóllar and Los Frailes mines where Minera Los Frailes/Grupo México is in the final permitting stage with construction anticipated to start in 2024. The Escacena Project hosts Pan Global's La Romana copper-tin-silver and Cañada Honda copper-gold discoveries and a number of other prospective targets, including, Bravo, Barbacena, El Pozo, Romana Norte, San Pablo, Zarcita, Hornitos, La Jarosa, and Romana Deep, and most recently Cortijo.
About Pan Global Resources
Pan Global Resources Inc. is actively targeting copper-rich mineral deposits, given copper's compelling supply-demand fundamentals and outlook for strong long-term prices as a critical metal for global electrification and energy transition. The Company's flagship Escacena Project is located in the prolific Iberian Pyrite Belt in southern Spain, where a favourable permitting track record, excellent infrastructure, mining and professional expertise, and support for copper as a Strategic Raw Material by the European Commission collectively define a tier-one jurisdiction for mining investment. The Pan Global team comprises proven talent in exploration, discovery, development, and mine operations - all of which are committed to operating safely and with utmost respect for the environment and our partnered communities. The Company is a member, and operates under the principles, of the United Nations Global Compact.
Qualified Person
Alvaro Merino, Vice President Exploration for Pan Global Resources and a qualified person as defined by National Instrument 43-101, has reviewed and approves the scientific and technical information in this media release, including the exploration and sampling by SIEMCALSA. Mr. Merino is not independent of the Company.

TOMRA Collection.
Noen analytikere og noen investorer her hjemme har en stund nå 'hausset' en Tomra konkurrent, men følelsen er uansett at de skal måtte jobbe hardt de som vil henge med i konkurransen med TOMRA Collection.
Flott artikkel fra kode24 som bare 'må' leses i sin helhet. Her er innledningen.
Sånn lager utviklerne framtidas pantemaskin – med pantelapp på mobilen
Nå skal du ikke lenger trenge å vente til panteautomaten er ferdig. Vi besøkte Tomra, der utviklerne jobber med det de kaller fremtidens panteopplevelse.
Kurt Lekanger
journalist, kode24
Hva om du kunne slippe å måtte pante én og én flaske og vente på pantelappen, og bare gå rett inn i butikken etter at du har tømt posen med tomflasker inn i panteautomaten?
Det er nettopp en slik løsning ingeniørene og utviklerne hos Tomra jobber med nå. Nå tester Tomra et konsept hvor du kan få pantelappen på mobilen, og ikke lenger behøve å vente til automaten er ferdig.
– Kundene ønsker å komme til maskinen, levere flaskene og gå, sier Rune Hamnvik, seniorutvikler i Tomra.
Vi besøkte Tomra i Asker for å høre om selskapets nye panteautomat, Tomra R2, og ikke minst få innblikk i koden bak panteautomaten. Her går det i mye C og C++, kan vi avsløre.
Selskapet har fra før av en panteautomat – R1 – der du også kan tømme alle flaskene inn i et hull. Men mens R1 krever ganske mye plass, skal R2 kunne brukes også i mindre butikker.
Trenger ikke vente
Hamnvik er "software lead" på Tomras såkalte Revolver-prosjekt, som er prosjektet som jobber med å utvikle den nye Tomra R2-automaten. Mens R1 allerede kan brukes i over 600 butikker i 16 land, er R2 foreløpig bare under testing i seks ulike land – inkludert et par butikker i Norge.
Endelig lansering er i september.
Hamnvik forteller at en av nyvinningene i R2 er det som kalles "Drop and go", samt "digital voucher", som er under utvikling nå.
Slik virker Drop & Go:
Bruk mobilen til å skanne en QR-kode på skjermen til panteautomaten
Tøm alle flaskene dine i et stort hull i automaten
Du kan nå forlate maskinen og gå inn i butikken for å handle
Når maskinen er ferdig, får du pantelappen på mobilen

Følelsen er definitivt at et mye større marked nå er under oppseiling for TOMRA Recycling i UK. Og suksessivt, i stadig økende grad, også for TOMRA Collection Solutions selvfølgelig, i forbindelse med at et nasjonalt pantesystem for hele UK skal på plass og være oppe og gå i 2027.
Og vi må heller ikke glemme Tomras nye divisjon TOMRA Horizon her, som nok også kommer til å få store forretningsmuligheter i UK, som følge av gårsdagens valgresultat og Labours valgløfter om en mye større satsing på sirkulær økonomi i UK.

Does Labour victory signal new era for UK circular economy?
Sustainability, Legislation and Regulation, Policy and Strategy, Resource Management
5th July 2024
The Labour Party has emerged victorious in the UK’s general election, securing a commanding (at the time of publishing) 410 seats in the House of Commons, compared to the Conservative Party’s 144. Will the party now deliver on its sustainable and circular economy promises?
...
A Green Shift in Policy
As Labour prepares to take the reins, for many, the spotlight is on their environmental agenda, particularly their commitment to a circular economy. This shift promises to address the UK’s pressing waste and sustainability issues, paving the way for reduced material footprint and enhanced resource efficiency.
Libby Peake, head of resources at Green Alliance, emphasised the importance of this transition: “The Labour Party is right to commit to a more circular economy – the public wants it and it is desperately needed to meet our legally-binding climate and nature commitments.”
Michael Topham, CEO of Biffa, also expressed optimism about the new government’s approach. “We’re pleased to welcome the new Government and look forward to working with them to deliver the ambitious vision of a circular economy. A stable and clear policy environment with realistic timetables and as much consistency as possible across all devolved nations will be key to allowing the waste sector to invest and innovate,” Topham stated.
Industry Priorities and Initiatives
Biffa, a leading waste management company, has outlined several priorities for the new government to focus on, including the successful implementation of Extended Producer Responsibility, Simpler Recycling, and a UK-wide deposit return scheme for drinks bottles and cans.
Topham also urged the government to make the Plastics Packaging Tax more ambitious, ban the export of unprocessed plastic waste, and support the decarbonisation of the waste sector through promoting carbon capture and zero emissions collections.
...
As Labour steps into leadership, the environmental and sustainability sectors will be eagerly awaiting for Labour to set this new transformative path towards sustainability, with a focus on circular economy principles, waste reduction, and green investments.
“With the right policies in place, the waste sector has the skills, capital and ambition to deliver a circular economy for the UK. Delivering a more sustainable UK waste sector is not easy but represents a huge opportunity. We are ready to support the new Government in rising to the challenge,” Topham concluded.

Overgangsfasen på 6 måneder for Ungarns pantesystem er nå tilbakelagt.
Fra 1.juli 2024 er kun drikkevarer i flasker og bokser med pant tilgjengelig i handel.
Her få vi vite blant annet vite at Tomra til nå har utplassert 1 500 panteautomater i Ungarn. Primært der de største volumene samles inn, i super- og hypermarkeder.
Hungary's deposit return scheme now entering new era with end of transition period
04 Jul 2024
Hungary started its environmental transformation with the launch of its deposit return system (DRS) on 1 January 2024. On 1 July, Hungary entered the next phase for its DRS, with the end of its six-month transition period, during which time drink producers could place on the market beverage packaging both with and without deposit markings. From 1 July, only properly marked and registered drink containers can be available for consumer purchase, so now the DRS is fully in place and prepared to take on the challenge of enhancing Hungary’s environmental efforts.
...
TOMRA Collection Hungary has been pivotal in setting up the DRS infrastructure. With extensive experience from similar projects in Slovakia, Lithuania and other countries, TOMRA Collection has tailored its technology and expertise to meet Hungary’s unique requirements.
TOMRA has already deployed over 1500 reverse vending machines across Hungary in various formats of stores – mostly supermarkets and hypermarkets. “TOMRA’s RVMs are designed to handle a high volume of returns, accurately identify and sort different types of containers, and provide instant deposit refunds,” continues Dávid Bakos.

Har postet om TOMRA Textiles nærvær og aktivitet i California i tidligere innlegg her på tråden.
Tomra er tett på og vet hva som rører seg i de politiske landskapene, og er nok til en viss grad også involvert i å utforme og iallefall påvirke politikk, i mange sammenhenger. Så Tomras storsatsing på resirkulering av tekstiler, TOMRA Textiles, en del av selskapets nye divisjon TOMRA Horizon, er garantert alt annet enn et skudd i mørket. California er en 'frontrunner' og bjellesau innen det meste av fremtidsrettet politkk vår felles, opphetede klode så sårt trenger. Så fint å kunne konstatere at lovprosessene i drlstaten nå ruller stødig videre, i retning lovpålagt ERP (Extended Producer Responsibility) når det gjelder ansvar for resirkulering av tekstiler.
California legislator continues to push for textiles EPR law
State Sen. Josh Newman says his textiles extended producer responsibility bill has passed a recent committee vote.
BRIAN TAYLOR | JULY 03, 2024
California's Responsible Textile Recovery Act of 2024, or Senate Bill 707, which Sen. Josh Newman calls a "landmark, first-in-the-country, textile recycling bill,” has passed a recent California Assembly Natural Resources Committee vote 9-3.
The bill establishes a "robust" extended producer responsibility (EPR) program that will require producers to implement and fund a program to facilitate the reuse, repair and recycling of clothing and textile fibers.
Newman had also attempted to get California to move forward with SB 707 last year, citing at the time a reaction in part to the fast fashion trend, as he has again this year.
“I’m very proud of the thoughtful and thorough work, involving stakeholders at every point of the value chain, that has gone into SB 707 to produce a bill that will have an immensely positive impact on our state and on the environment,” Newman says. “Textile waste is a growing environmental issue that will require innovation and collaboration. This bill, and the groundbreaking program it will enable, will make California a global leader in textile recycling and waste reduction.”
Since its introduction last year, SB 707 has been subject to “extensive stakeholder engagement,” according to Newman. A news release issued by the legislature says that the ensuing collaborative process has resulted in dozens of improvements as the result of hundreds of hours of stakeholder meetings with a diverse coalition, including environmental organizations, industry leaders and community groups.
Newman says the bill has received widespread support and cites the California Product Stewardship Council (CPSC), Ikea, Goodwill, Sierra Club California and waste and recycling firm Republic Services as examples, as well as numerous local governments, agencies and sanitation districts.
“At Ikea, we have an ambition to become a circular business by 2030,” says Mardi Ditze, United States sustainability manager for the Sweden-based retailer. “To achieve this, we must partner with policymakers to support efforts in creating more circular systems for textiles and other products. We applaud Senator Newman for leading a collaborative process with industry stakeholders on SB 707 and support efforts to increase textile circularity in California and across the U.S.”
“Textile recycling is a growing industry domestically, creating jobs and reviving manufacturing in areas near recycling facilities,” says Peter Majeranowski, CEO of Circ Inc., a Virginia-based textile recycler. “We’ve seen the fashion industry really step up to adopt fibers and yarns with lower impacts.”
SB 707 next will head to the California Assembly Appropriations Committee for a hearing and consideration before moving to the full assembly.
“The rise of ‘fast fashion,’ or the marketing and sale of low-cost, low-quality garments that fall out of vogue with increasing speed, is a major contributor to these devastating trends," Newman says. "In 2021, approximately 1.2 million tons of textiles were disposed of in California. Despite 95 percent of textiles being reusable or recyclable, only 15 percent are currently recycled or reused,” according to Newman.
SB 707 will “facilitate a transition to a sustainable, market-aligned and circular economy for textiles, unlocking both new production and consumption opportunities that will benefit the environment,” say its backers, adding, “The bill will also strengthen the ability of thrift stores and charities to handle unsellable garments and combat textile waste by incentivizing the use of more sustainable and easier to recycle materials.”

Artikkel om en teknologisk nyvinning fra Stadler. Artikkelen forteller oss dessuten om hvordan store spillere som Stadler, Steinert og Tomra spiller sammen og samarbeider når unge, kloke hoder skal rekrutteres.
Smart wire remover ‘an industry first’
Plastics recycling, Technology
– Kirstin Linnenkoper – July 1, 2024
German recycling tech company Stadler unveiled its ‘groundbreaking’ WireX automated bale wire remover at the IFAT trade show in Munich.
Rok Mežič, head of development at Stadler, told an enthusiastic crowd how this new machine is capable of dewiring crosswired bales in a single pass. ‘This is an industry first,’ he notes.
...
Automated and digital solutions is a huge part of Stadler’s vision for the future, according to company ceo Willi Stadler. He took IFAT as the golden opportunity to introduce his daughter, Julia Stadler, as the new Chief Digital Solutions.
...
Mining talent
‘It’s vital to find and train new recycling technology talent,’ underlines Julia Stadler when the topic of the next generation comes up. ‘That’s why we are eager to offer internships to much-needed engineers year after year.’ The result is Stadler Academy, which is a collaboration with seven universities across Germany and Austria.
This includes the Summer School project with Aachen University, which also counts on the support of Lindner Recyclingtech, Tomra Sorting and Steinert. ‘The great thing is that we all complement each other,’ she says. ‘We’re not competitors fighting for hires.’
Instead, students work together in teams, supervised by industry leaders. Doing so allows them to expand their unique skillset while targeting key themes that interest them, such as robotic sorting and big data.
‘We’ve had very good results,’ she adds. ‘The youngsters are super driven and are equipped with tonnes of bold, new ideas. We give them the space to experiment and learn from their mistakes. Typically, at least one person stays with us once they’ve graduated. This benefits our company and the recycling sector as a whole!’

Står ikke noe i denne artikkelen om at Tomra er involvert i avtalen Carbios har undertegnet i Kina, men som man kan lese omtales den nylig inngåtte avtalen mellom Carbios og Tomra under hvilken Tomra skal samle inn, sortere og tilrettelegge tekstiler i Nord-Europa for Carbios som så, på sin side av avtalen, skal resirkulere tekstilene.
Således vil det ikke overraske meg det minste hvis vi etterhvert får nyheter om at Tomra skal samle inn, sortere og tilrettelegge plastavfall for Carbios i Kina. Plastavfall som Zhink Group og Carbios så skal resirkulere ved hjelp av Carbios's løsninger.
Time will show.
Det har forøvrig blitt gjort kjent at Tomras CEO Tove Andersen har vært på visitter i både Kina og Vietnam, for ikke veldig lenge siden.
Carbios, Zhink Group enter joint letter of intent for PET recycling plant in China
Additionally, Carbios recently signed an agreement with Tomra Textiles to partner on establishing a textile scrap collection stream in Northern Europe.
POSTED BY CHRIS VOLOSCHUK | JUNE 27, 2024
Carbios, a France-based company that uses biological technologies to recycle plastic and textiles, has signed a joint letter of intent with China-based polyethylene terephthalate (PET) producer Zhink Group to build a biorecycling plant in China using Carbios’ enzymatic depolymerization technology to serve the global market.
Carbios says this agreement makes official the collaboration toward a long-term partnership in view of a first licensing contract to build a plant with a minimum annual processing capacity of 50,000 tons of prepared PET scrap and would contribute to accelerating a circular economy for plastic and textiles.
...
Carbios, Tomra partner
In mid-June, Carbios announced the signing of an agreement with Tomra Textiles—a tech venture started by Norway-based Tomra ASA—to collaborate on establishing an efficient stream in Northern Europe from textile scrap collection, sorting and preparation to recycling using Carbios’ enzymatic depolymerization technology at its first commercial plant, which is currently under construction in Longlaville, France.
RELATED: Carbios celebrates groundbreaking of PET recycling plant
Carbios says the monomers obtained will be used to produce rPET fiber, closing the loop for polyester textile circularity. Additionally, Tomra Textiles aims to close the gap on textile circularity by contributing to designing and scaling textile sorting plants. Under this partnership agreement, Tomra Textiles will explore specific, tangible measures to enable the preparation of postconsumer polyester scrap for biorecycling according to Carbios’ specifications.
“Carbios is taking the lead in forming an efficient value chain for textile circularity and actively engages with global industry leaders such as Tomra to shape the future of sustainable textiles,” Ladent says.
Vibeke Krohn, head of Tomra Textiles, adds that the textile industry has been optimized for cost and efficiency for centuries, and closing the gap means scaling all the elements of a circular value chain—from collection to sorting to recycling technologies. “Future recycling solutions depend on reliable access to feedstock,” he says. “Through the collaboration with Carbios, we hope to stimulate further investments needed to scale textile circularity.”

California's Textile Recycling Bill Re-Introduced With Industry Input
Story by Kate Nishimura
• 18h • 4 min read
A little over a year after it was first introduced, SB 707, rebranded as the Responsible Textile Recovery Act, has been "restructured and refined" to include input and new language from textile and apparel industry stakeholders as well as sortation and recycling experts.
Now, it's headed to the Assembly Committee of Natural Resources for a hearing on July 1.
Proposed by State Senator Josh Newman last March, the bill aims to make producers of fabrics and clothing sold within the Golden State liable for the fate of their waste, which might otherwise be destined for landfills.
If signed into law, it would mandate that the industry fund an Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) program for discarded garments and textiles. Under the platform, a Producer Responsibility Organization (PRO) would manage the collection, sortation and recycling of the recovered goods.

A GLOBAL CHALLENGE THAT CAN BE SORTED
TOMRA demonstrates textile sorting at Homeboy Threads in Los Angeles
A diverse crowd of textile experts, fashion designers, policymakers, recycling specialists and waste management representatives gathered in Los Angeles on February 29th to witness fully automated textile sorting by TOMRA.
01 Mar 2024 5 min
Since early January, a TOMRA AUTOSORT™ unit has been installed at the premises of Homeboy Threads, a social enterprise in Los Angeles offering reuse and recycling services for apparel and textiles. Homeboy Threads is a part of Homeboy Industries, the largest gang intervention, rehabilitation, and re-entry program in the world.
Here former convicts are forging a new path after serving time. Many are involved in various forms of sorting and recycling activities, reclaiming resources that have been thrown away. At Homeboy Threads, the staff is trained to identify reusable clothes among piles of used textiles – and to handle the vast amounts of post-industrial textile waste: clippings and scraps from the more than 800 production sites in the LA area.
Supercharged by automated sensor-based technology, staff at the Homeboy Threads facility are able to identify and separate textiles by fiber type and color, at scale. The TOMRA unit can provide, for example, pure cotton or polyester materials to emerging fiber-to-fiber recyclers and clothing manufacturers.
...
Why Los Angeles?
Los Angeles is a global hub for fashion brands and apparel companies and has historically been a hub for the US textiles industry. Being both a large consumer and producer of textiles, the area has been challenged by the lack of sites that support a high-volume, transparent and efficient textile recovery process. This has led to a textile waste stream that continues to grow locally and globally. The City of Los Angeles reported in a 2022 Textile Recovery Pilot Report by the LA Department of Sanitation and Environment (LASAN) and the California Product Stewardship Council (CPSC), that every year more than 70,000 tons of commercially generated textile waste ends up in the region’s landfills.
Now, the city has ambitions to become the home to the growing part of the fashion industry that is moving to a more sustainable future. Legislation is being drafted by California lawmakers, discussing regulations such as mandatory separate collection of waste textiles, and extended producer responsibility schemes for textiles.
Why TOMRA?
TOMRA’s technology is one of several options considered by the California Product Stewardship Council and the City of LA in its quest to implement solutions that can enable circularity at scale.
With more than 50 years of experience in circular technology, and with the capability to deliver high-volume, high-precision sorting solutions, TOMRA’s solution was identified as particularly interesting. The demo period at Homeboy Threads has been used to prove the TOMRA solution in action, both as a support to manual sorting for reuse, and as a scalable solution to sorting for recycling.
TOMRA Textiles is on a mission to close the gap between collection of textiles waste and emerging technologies for fiber-to-fiber recycling, and the LA opportunity provides fertile ground for putting technology and organizational setups to the test.

Ireland's deposit return scheme ramps up
25 June 2024 by Alex Brinded
More than 200mln containers have been returned by Irish consumers since a deposit return scheme launched in February, says operator Re-turn.
...
Re-turn notes, since June, an average of 2.9mln containers are being returned daily as the scheme adoption continues to grow, up from an average of 69,000 a day in February.

Cross-state fraud with CT bottle and can returns? How doubling payout has affected data
Story by Don Stacom, Hartford Courant• 23h • 5 min read
Doubling the payout for cans and bottles from a nickel to a dime apiece led more people in Connecticut to redeem them in the first part of the year, but analysts don’t anticipate knowing how strong that trend is until in late summer.
Jan. 1 marked the first time in 44 years that consumers got more for redeemable containers, and environmentalists are hoping it will get a lot more people headed to redemption centers and reverse vending machines with their empties.
...
Tomra and Naugatuck-based Envipco are the two major reverse vending machine operators in Connecticut; their equipment is found in supermarkets, drug stores, discount food stores and other retailers that provide redemption services.
While those one-at-a-time machines are familiar to individual consumers, some individuals and many restaurants, businesses, sports venues and other large-quantity buyers use bulk redemption centers that accept bagloads of containers at a time.
Some of those have closed in recent years because the nickel redemption fee no longer provided enough margin to support their business, and the pressure has been strongest in one of the most affluent and densely populated parts of the state: Lower Fairfield County. There are no redemption centers west of Bridgeport, largely because of land costs, said Nelson.
DEEP is hoping the new 10-cent price will make redemption centers more feasible in all sections of the state

How TOMRA seeks to combat ocean plastic

Beverage containers – produced and disposed
Working with beverage containers, TOMRA pays attention to what happens to them. And research shows that, every year, more than 1.4 trillion beverage containers are sold, where 500 billion of those are plastic. Of the 78 million tons of plastic packaging produced every year, only 14% is collected for recycling. A huge 40% of plastic packaging is simply sent to landfill, and 32% ends up in nature as litter.
The International Coastal Cleanup in 2020 surveyed 9422 tonnes of litter from 116 participating countries, and found plastic beverage bottles and caps in the top 3 and 4 types of litter collected. Research has found that plastic bottles release methane and ethylene – powerful greenhouse gases – when exposed to solar radiation or water. It is estimated that a plastic bottle takes 450 years to break down in nature, and the rate of production of these gases increases over time.
All this can be stopped: most plastic bottles are made of PET and HDPE, which are highly recyclable materials. Plastic should not be perceived or treated as disposable, but as a valuable resource.

Deposit return scheme reduces can and bottle litter
Significant decrease in litter in towns and cities except for Dublin city which remains a ‘blot on the landscape’, report shows
Olivia Kelly Dublin Editor
Mon Jun 24 2024 - 00:01
Can and plastic bottle litter has reduced significantly across towns and cities since the introduction of the deposit return scheme in February, according to research from Irish Business Against Litter (Ibal).
However, Dublin city centre had seen a fall in cleanliness and was a “blot on the landscape,” the anti-litter business group said.
The first national litter survey, conducted by An Taisce for Ibal, since the introduction of the “Re-turn” scheme, found discarded cans have reduced by almost 30 per cent and plastic bottle waste was less prevalent than in any previous survey.
...
The success of the scheme should spur the implementation of a coffee cup levy, he said.
“These initial results indicate that if there’s a monetary incentive to do the right thing, people will respond. The same logic applies to a coffee cup levy. Tackling specific litter types with tailored measures is the most effective way of ridding our streets of litter.”

Tomra Collection: good location and simple operation of the recycler are the keys to popularizing the deposit system
21/06/2024 11:50
Appropriate deposit settlement methods convenient for consumers returning packaging, location of recyclers, reliability and intuitive operation of these machines, and, above all, deposit settlement methods consistent with expectations are the conditions for the successful development of the deposit system in Poland. – pointed out Konrad Robak, managing director of Tomra Collection Polska, participant of the expert debate "Technology in the service of environmental protection" at the PAP Press Center.
...
In the first part, debate participants talked about what conditions recyclers should meet to encourage consumers to use them.
"The task of the machine is to be the guardian of the correct operation of the deposit system in the service of environmental protection. It should accept the packaging, determine whether it works in the deposit system and whether a deposit should be paid, classify it correctly, e.g. destroy a single-use packaging. Finally, provide the data correctly, because we are talking about very big money. And what data will come out of the machine and how it will be transferred is extremely important for the entire system," explained Konrad Robak, managing director of Tomra Collection Polska.
"Tomra Collection is a Norwegian company whose history began 50 years ago and today we support our partners with technology in 60 markets around the world. From the very beginning, the company's mission has been to close the packaging circuit and make the world better and cleaner," Director Robak announced to the company.
"The recyclomat is part of the technology used throughout the deposit system. We will not escape from it, we must be ahead of time, because progress is very fast. What is worth remembering is the flexibility of technology. It should be ready for appropriate verification of packaging, also in the context of 2 D codes and potential changes in the materials or security features adopted. Today's investments should ensure that they will be flexible and safe in the long term, i.e. today's expenditure must be viewed in terms of total costs, not one-off costs," Konrad Robak pointed out.
...
"The technology should be accurate enough to recognize not only the code itself, but also the shape connected to the cork, but also with a certain tolerance to also accept a plastic bottle without a cork. This actually gives security to the system. This is part of the standardisation that should be taken into account in the design of the deposit system in Poland', noted Konrad Robak.
The discussion also concerned the method of paying the deposit. There are several options, including transferring the appropriate amount to the consumer's card or to a type of paper or electronic coupon that can be redeemed in the store where the recycler is located - in the form of a refund or payment of purchase costs.
"Research we did on seven deposit markets - from the oldest in Europe, Swedish, to the newest one at that time - Slovak, showed that despite the possibility of returning to the card, 87% of consumers decide to collect the deposit for the coupon, not to withdraw cash," pointed out Director Robak.
In his opinion, the return to retail option will work in Poland, because the machines will be placed primarily in larger stores.
"Return to retail is a chance for stores to stand out on the market. Well-chosen technology can attract customers. Failure to take advantage of such an opportunity will, in turn, pose a threat to the store from which customers will leave without finding a well-functioning service there," emphasized a representative of Tomra Collection Polska.
During the discussion, the threat of fraud was also pointed out. "Our task as technology providers is to protect the system against them. There are and will be attempts at fraud, so we need to share our experience of how to secure this system, what works and what doesn't, and minimize these risks," Konrad Robak emphasized.
He also noted that in order to create an effective deposit system, appropriate legal regulations are needed specifying the obligations of producers, sellers and consumers, including detailed rules for the return of packaging and deposits. It will also depend on well-designed collection points whether the consumer is actively involved in packaging recycling.
"Technology will be an essential part of the deposit system. We, as a technology supplier, have never lost connection with the consumer, because recycling is a value not only for our customers, but also for consumers who, having positive experiences with a given location, will return there," concluded the director of Tomra Collection Polska.

Ericsson and Tomra announce circular economy collaboration
Circular Economy, Environment and Energy, Sustainability
18th June 2024
Ericsson and TOMRA have announced a collaboration aiming to increase transparency, traceability, and optimisation of waste streams.
This will allow both teams to execute their mission to reduce litter and increase circularity in waste streams.
TOMRA Collection said it provides technology solutions that enable the circular economy. Its reverse vending machines (RVMs) collect, sort and process used beverage containers to be continually reused and recycled back into new bottles and cans.
Ericsson Connected Recycling described itself as a SaaS platform powered by an HPE private cloud solution. It enables a transformation from “waste” to circular recycled raw materials that can be remonetised into Enterprise ecosystems.
The two technology companies said they are now combining their technologies to enable circularity as part of the transition away from landfill and waste incineration.
Ericsson and TOMRA said they will showcase the solution by tracking waste collection at HPE’s Discover event (17-20 June 2024) in Las Vegas to demonstrate the potential of the combined technologies.
Marius Fraurud, Head of TOMRA Collection, commented: “At TOMRA, our mission is to drive circularity through innovative solutions.
“Our reverse vending machines play a crucial role by collecting and sorting used beverage containers while generating precise data on these materials.
“The collaboration with Ericsson Connected Recycling shows how this data can be used to provide complete traceability of materials from waste to new products.
“By combining our technologies, we are demonstrating how we can turn waste into a valuable resource and drive more sustainable practices in the industry.”
Sophia Fahlen, Head of Ericsson Connected Recycling, said: “We are excited to enter this collaboration with TOMRA. Ericsson as a leader in connectivity and digitalisation, and TOMRA as a leader in collection and sorting systems.
“This is a great opportunity to show how our combined experience and ability to execute at scale, could transform the waste industry, increasing circularity and minimising the environmental impact of waste.”

CARBIOS and TOMRA Textiles will collaborate to close the textiles circularity gap between collection of textile waste and innovative technologies for textile-to-textile recycling
Oslo/Clermont-Ferrand, Tuesday 18 June 2024 (6.45am CEST):
CARBIOS (Euronext Growth Paris: ALCRB), a pioneer in the development and industrialization of biological technologies to reinvent the life cycle of plastic and textiles, and TOMRA Textiles, a tech venture set up by sorting technology leader TOMRA (Oslo Stock Exchange: TOM.OL), announce the signing of an agreement to collaborate on establishing an efficient stream in Northern Europe from textile waste collection, sorting and preparation to recycling using CARBIOS’ enzymatic depolymerization technology at its first commercial plant currently under construction in Longlaville, France.
The monomers obtained will be used to produce recycled polyester (r-PET) fiber, closing the loop for polyester textile circularity.
The innovations from both TOMRA Textiles and CARBIOS contribute to addressing critical gaps in the value chain and significantly increase textile-to-textile recycling from its current rate of 1%1. By accelerating a circular economy for polyester, a sustainable alternative to incineration or landfill is made available.
TOMRA Textiles is on a mission to close the gap in textile circularity, by contributing to designing and scaling textile sorting plants. Under this partnership agreement, TOMRA Textiles will explore specific, tangible measures to enable the preparation of post-consumer polyester waste for biorecycling according to CARBIOS’ specifications.
CARBIOS' biorecycling technology involves breaking down polyester fibers into their basic components using enzymes, which are then used to produce high-quality recycled PET materials such as fibers for the textile industry. The breakthrough collaboration with TOMRA will redirect the challenging PET fraction of polyester textile waste towards biorecycling, showcasing a mutual dedication to pioneering recycling solutions for a circular economy.
Emmanuel Ladent, CEO of CARBIOS: “CARBIOS is taking the lead in forming an efficient value chain for textile circularity and actively engages with global industry leaders such as TOMRA to shape the future of sustainable textiles.”
Vibeke Krohn, Head of TOMRA Textiles: “The textile industry has been optimized for cost and efficiency for centuries. Closing the gap means scaling all the elements of a circular value chain – from collection to sorting to recycling technologies. Future recycling solutions depend on reliable access to feedstock. Through the collaboration with CARBIOS we hope to stimulate further investments needed to scale textile circularity.”

TOMRA Collection, global provider of reverse vending solutions, opens office in Athens, Greece
12 Jun 2024
TOMRA Collection, the global leader in reverse vending technology, has reaffirmed its commitment to achieving a circular economy in Greece with the official opening of a new office in Athens. This milestone marks a significant step forward in TOMRA's mission to support Greece in attaining circularity through an efficient deposit return scheme (DRS) and innovative solutions for collecting and recycling used beverage containers.
Addressing plastic waste challenges in Greece
Greece faces an urgent challenge in managing plastic waste, with a significant portion still ending up in landfills. Through the transposition of the EU Single-Use Plastics Directive into the national legislation, the Greek government is committed to introduce a DRS for recycling of beverage containers. This will mark a milestone in Greece’s sustainability path and will make the Hellenic Republic one of the first Mediterranean countries to implement such a system. A DRS will represent an opportunity for Greece’s tourism-driven economy, by protecting its pristine environment and increasing its overall circularity performance.

MKiŚ: "PolKa" received permission to operate a deposit system
Author: horecatrends.pl/press information • Published: June 11th, 2024 2:15 PM | Updated: June 11, 2024 2:28 PM
On June 10, "PolKa" received permission from the Ministry of Climate and Environment to operate a deposit system. This authorization makes it possible to create a system for those placing drinks on the market in packages covered by a deposit and to return this deposit to the end user.
"PolKa” in the deposit system
Thus, “PolKa” is the only operator that has a separate collection permit under the deposit system of all three fractions: cans, plastic bottles and reusable glass bottles, and that's it as of 1 January 2025.
Aware of the enormous time pressure and operational challenges, “PolKa”, even before obtaining formal consent to operate the deposit system, has made investments and devoted recent months to designing and implementing processes that will enable the system to start on the statutory date of January 1, 2025
...
Today, only two companies in Poland have permission to create a deposit system operator, with only PolKa allowed to collect three factions. They will be entitled to act as representing entities for the next 10 years.

At Kina har bestemt seg for å satse stort på sirkulær økonomi, tenker jeg ensbetydende med ditto potensial for Tomra. Legg også merke til at Tomra er blant de første som nevnes blant deltagende selskap, i samme åndedrag som f.eks Pepsico.
Unveiling China’s Circular Transformation – a global showcase at WCEF 2024
Published on 3 June 2024
China is a leading global power and pioneering in its implementation of a circular economy. In April 2024, the Ellen MacArthur Foundation and the China Association of Circular Economy (CACE) co-hosted a dedicated China-focused parallel session at the 2024 World Circular Economy Forum in Brussels. The session explored the transformative power of circular economy practices and marked China's first official presence on the World Circular Economy Forum (WCEF) stage, offering insights into its transformative journey in front of a global audience.
Attended by Chenxin Zhao, Vice Chairman of the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), People’s Republic of China, and Astrid Schomaker, Director for Green Diplomacy and Multilateralism, Directorate General for Environment of the European Commission, the event brought a delegation of approximately 30 businesses from China including CATL, Pepsico, Veolio, Tomra, China International Engineering Consulting Corporation, and China Industrial Energy Conservation and Cleaner Production Association. It also received robust on-site participation from European governments, international institutions, organisations, and WCEF attendees, with over 200 participants present.

TOMRA Achieves Industry First With Food-Grade Plastics Sorting Solution
June 2024
Global sorting solutions provider, TOMRA Recycling, has launched three revolutionary applications to separate food-grade from non-food-grade plastics for PET, PP and HDPE. The breakthrough was made possible by the company’s intensive research and development in deep learning, a subset of artificial intelligence (AI).
Thanks to TOMRA’s continued investment in GAIN – the company’s deep learning-based sorting add-on for its AUTOSORT™ units – it is now possible to quickly and efficiently separate food-grade from non-food-grade plastics for PET, PP and HDPE on a large scale.
TOMRA’s GAIN technology –rebranded GAINnext™ to pay tribute to the product’s significant evolution – resolves these challenges by further enhancing the sorting performance of the company’s AUTOSORT™ units, so they are capable of identifying objects that are hard and, in some cases, even impossible to classify using traditional optical waste sensors.
By combining its traditional near-infrared, visual spectrometry or other sensors with deep learning technology, TOMRA has developed the most accurate solution available on the market today. The degrees of purity that this solution is achieving – upwards of 95 percent for the packaging applications in customers’ plants – will expand opportunities for new revenue streams for TOMRA’s customers.
TOMRA is also launching two non-food applications that complement the company’s existing GAINnext ecosystem: a PET cleaner application for even higher purity PET bottle streams and an application for deinking paper for cleaner paper streams.
Among the early adopters of the brand-new applications are market-leading plants such as Berry Circular Polymers’ flagship facility in Leamington Spa, Viridor Avonmouth in Bristol – the UK’s largest multi-polymer facility – and the French Nord Pal Plast plant, which is owned by the global Dentis Group

Austria, Wales, and Taiwan lead global recycling league table

Study by Eunomia Research and Consulting and Reloop reveals which nations are among the world's highest recyclers - and how they do it
Austria and Wales lead the way as the countries with the highest recycling rate for household waste worldwide, according to the latest rankings published today by circular economy non-profit Reloop in collaboration with Eunomia Research and Consulting.
The research reveals Austria and Wales both recycled 59 per cent of their household or municipal waste collected last year. They were followed in the rankings by Taiwan, which achieved a 53 per cent recycling rate, just ahead of Germany and Belgium which both managed 52 per cent.
Other nations rounding out the top 10 include the Netherlands and Denmark on 51 per cent each, as well as Slovenia on 50 per cent, while Northern Ireland and South Korea both achieved a 45 per cent recycling rate, according to the study.
...
The research was funded in part by recycling tech specialist TOMRA, the Welsh Government, the International Aluminium Institute, and the Can Manufacturers Institute, in collaboration with Reloop.
"Increasing all countries' recycling rates is key in preventing overuse of the world's resources, and our 50-year experience in the field has taught us that targets must be specific for efforts to have maximum effect," said Tove Andersen, president and CEO at TOMRA. "The lack of international standardization on exactly what should be measured, at which point in the recycling process, however, has made cross-country comparisons notoriously difficult. Uncovering which nations are actually the greatest recyclers, allows for application of best practices across borders, and increased recycling rates for all."

Waste management
OPINION: What can we expect from the forthcoming inclusion of EfW plants in the UK ETS?
May 31, 2024 by Libby Stonell
Terry Keyworth, sales manager UK and Ireland, Tomra Recycling, shares his thoughts on the inclusion of EfW facility carbon emissions in the UK Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) from 2028 onwards.
OPINION: When ETS was introduced in 2021, EfW facilities were seen as a more sustainable alternative to landfill, and there were concerns that including EfW in the ETS could disincentivise waste diversion efforts.
However, the landscape is changing, and the UK government has decided to follow suit with the EU and include emissions from EfW facilities in the ETS from 2028 onwards. The aim is to create a financial incentive for EfW operators to operate in a more carbon-neutral way.

Den kraftige veksten innen TOMRA Recycling, en vekst som ifølge selskapet selv ikke viser noen tegn til å avta, har medført at virksomheten trenger mer plass.
TOMRA Recycling embraces future working practices in new office building
Standing as a symbol for the company’s vision and values: TOMRA Recycling’s new office building offers space for an ever-increasing workforce.
29 May 2024 1 min
Following the opening of a new test center at its site in Mülheim-Kärlich last year, the world’s leading manufacturer of sensor-based sorting technology for recycling has undertaken a 1.5-year construction project to expand the office complex. The expansion was needed to accommodate TOMRA Recycling’s growth, which shows no sign of slowing. A doubling of the workforce since 2019 reflects that: The recycling market is booming, and new regulations are making efficient sorting systems increasingly important.
TOMRA Recycling, part of the Norwegian parent company TOMRA, is positioning itself as a top employer; with 4.5 stars on Germany’s leading job evaluation platform Kununu, the company is among the best rated in the entire country.

Global Mining Review
Wednesday, 29 May 2024 10:00
Andrada Mining has purchased TOMRA XRT sorters as part of its expansion plans at the flagship Uis Mine in Namibia.
The sorters feature TOMRA’s latest innovation launched earlier this year at the Mining Indaba exhibition: the groundbreaking OBTAINTM software that leverages Deep Learning to bring single-particle precision to high-throughput particle sorting.
Andrada Mining, the African technology metals mining company, owns the opencast Uis tin mine, which represents one of the largest tin reserves in Namibia. It is in the course of implementing expansion plans at the mine, which include introducing a pre-concentrating circuit of ore sorters with the aim of increasing tin concentrate from 1500 – 2600 tpa. It has purchased TOMRA COM Tertiary XRT sorters for the ore sorting pre-concentration circuit in the dry process section of the plant, expecting to increase the tin content of the feed to the wet processing plant by 50%.
...
Anthony Viljoen, Chief Executive Officer at Andrada Mining, said: “Andrada Mining is proud to partner with TOMRA, a market leader in ore sorting technology. TOMRA’s proven ability to adapt solutions for fast-growing companies like Andrada ensures a smooth and swift implementation process. TOMRA’s XRT sorters are a game-changer, combining high-tech sensors, powerful sorting valves, and industry-leading software for exceptional reliability. With TOMRA’s OBTAIN imaging software, we can boost production output while maximising mineral recovery and ore quality, which is a win-win for efficiency and earnings.”
Helga van Lochem, Area Sales Manager for Southern Africa at TOMRA Mining concluded: “We are excited about teaming up with Andrada Mining and helping them unlock value at their flagship Uis mine with our XRT sorters, the first to incorporate our OBTAIN Deep Learning feature unveiled just a few months ago. We will be at their side throughout the installation process and beyond, ensuring the sorters perform as required, meeting and even exceeding expectations.”
