Fiber Cement Panels and Gypsum Fiber Boards Recycling

40

Fiber cement panels and gypsum boards are important materials in modern construction, widely used for their fire-resistant properties. These boards use cement or gypsum as binders, with minerals or other fibers as reinforcing materials, giving them an irreplaceable advantage in the construction industry. However, a large amount of waste is often generated during renovation, demolition, and production processes. This waste not only takes up valuable space but also causes environmental pollution, leading to resource waste becoming a significant issue.

Fiber Cement Panels

To address this problem, one of our customers implemented an innovative solution by shredding the discarded fiber cement boards and gypsum boards and reusing them as raw materials for aerated concrete. This approach not only effectively reduces waste accumulation but also achieves resource recycling, helping to reduce the environmental burden and improve the economic value of the materials.

In the recycling process of fiber cement boards and gypsum boards, shredding is a critical step. These materials are large in size and typically have a certain toughness, making traditional stone crushers inadequate for processing them. To solve this issue, the customer ultimately chose shredders for the task.

Trial results showed that the four-shaft shredder was able to meet the shredding requirements of these materials effectively, especially when equipped with a screen, allowing the material to be processed into particles smaller than 3 cm. The twin-shaft shredder is also an ideal option if big sizes are acceptable.  The twin-shaft shredder offers higher output, easier maintenance, and lower energy consumption.

Of course, the specific equipment selection must be tailored according to the final use and other particular requirements of the recycled materials. If you have similar needs, feel free to contact us with your specific requirements. We will conduct in-depth analysis and discussion to provide the most suitable solution, helping you achieve efficient waste recycling and utilization.
