The world is generating more electronic waste than ever before. From discarded smartphones and laptops to end-of-life vehicle batteries and industrial cables, the volume of WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) continues to grow at an alarming rate. For businesses, this presents both a challenge and a significant opportunity. Investing in the right recycling infrastructure not only helps protect the environment but also unlocks substantial value from materials such as copper, lead, lithium, and precious metals.
Since 2007, San Lan Technologies Co., Ltd has been at the forefront of designing and manufacturing professional recycling equipment and complete processing plants. With a comprehensive product portfolio covering lead acid battery recycling equipment, lithium-ion battery systems, circuit board recovery lines, and cable recycling equipment, San Lan serves as a one-stop partner for companies looking to enter or expand in the recycling industry.
Lead acid batteries remain one of the most recycled consumer products globally. However, efficient and environmentally compliant recycling requires specialized machinery that can safely break, separate, and refine battery components. San Lan offers complete used lead acid battery recycling plants with capacities ranging from 1 to 10 MT per hour.
The integrated system includes battery breaking and separation units, filter presses for lead paste collection, de-sulfurization units to reduce emissions, blast furnaces and rotary furnaces for lead smelting, and lead refinery kettle furnaces capable of producing 99.999% pure lead. Air pollution control systems and water treatment plants ensure that every stage of the process meets strict environmental standards.
Key advantage: San Lan's rotary furnace for paste reduction achieves a higher lead recovery rate than traditional blast furnaces, while the electric refinery kettle option saves 30-50% energy through near-infrared heating technology.
As electric vehicles and energy storage systems proliferate, the demand for lithium battery recycling is exploding. San Lan's lithium battery recycling plants are designed to process 500-2,500 kg per hour, safely discharging, pre-crushing, and separating waste lithium cells into valuable fractions.
The advanced separation technology recovers black mass containing nickel, cobalt, and graphite, along with copper, aluminum, and plastic materials. Dedicated air pollution control systems neutralize harmful gases, while pneumatic conveying systems and hydraulic briquetters handle plastic separator film with a volume compression ratio of 10:1. This comprehensive approach ensures maximum material recovery with minimal environmental impact.
Printed circuit boards (PCBs) and scrap cables represent some of the richest urban mines available. San Lan provides both dry and wet separation technologies for circuit board recycling equipment, with capacities from 300 kg/hour to 2,000 kg/hour. The third-generation air separation technology achieves copper powder purity of 96-98% with a recovery rate of 95%, while wet separation systems can process PCBs with components still attached.
For cable processing, San Lan offers a full range of solutions from manual and automatic scrap cable strippers to high-capacity cable granulators. These machines efficiently separate copper and aluminum conductors from plastic insulation, handling cable diameters from 1.5mm to 150mm. Whether you process jelly-filled telecommunications cables or standard electrical wire, the equipment delivers consistent, high-purity output ready for direct sale to smelters.
What truly sets San Lan apart is not just the breadth of its product range, but its deep expertise in delivering complete Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) projects. The company's technical team includes mechanical engineering professionals with over 15 years of hands-on experience in e-waste recycling plant design and operation.
San Lan's value-added services extend far beyond equipment delivery. The team assists customers with customized plant design, one-stop purchasing of auxiliary equipment, installation and commissioning, and even operational support such as sourcing waste feedstock (cable scrap, PCB scrap, used batteries) and helping sell recovered products (copper rice, lead ingots, aluminum) to downstream buyers. This end-to-end partnership model has helped clients across 21 countries establish profitable recycling operations from the ground up.
San Lan Technologies has built a diverse international customer base spanning Singapore, Colombia, Vietnam, Mexico, Argentina, Korea, Malaysia, Indonesia, South Africa, Tunisia, India, Kenya, Saudi Arabia, the Philippines, Zambia, Israel, and beyond. This global reach is supported by essentially bilingual English and Chinese communication capabilities and a strong understanding of intercultural business environments.
The company's product range also includes specialized equipment for CRT monitor cutting, refrigerator and air conditioner recycling, motor stator dismantling, lamp crushing with mercury capture, and even lithium ore extraction plants for mining operations. This diversity reflects San Lan's core vision: to build the leading international brand in WEEE recycling through deep customer understanding, win-win cooperation, and professional project management.
