Electronic waste is one of the fastest-growing waste streams worldwide, driven by rising consumption of electronics, batteries, and electrical equipment. As environmental regulations tighten and raw material costs rise, businesses are recognizing that e-waste is not trash—it is a valuable resource waiting to be recovered. From used lead acid batteries to discarded circuit boards and scrap cables, the right recycling equipment can transform waste streams into profitable raw materials while protecting the planet.
For companies looking to enter or expand in the recycling industry, choosing a reliable technology partner is critical. Equipment must deliver high recovery rates, comply with environmental standards, and scale with your business. This is where experienced manufacturers make the difference between a profitable operation and a costly experiment.
Who We Are: 15+ Years of Recycling Expertise
San Lan Technologies Co., Ltd has been a professional manufacturer of WEEE recycling machines and mining equipment since 2007. Based in Ganzhou, Jiangxi Province, China, we design and build complete recycling plants that handle everything from initial shredding to final material separation and metal recovery.
Our engineering team holds master's degrees in mechanical engineering and brings over 15 years of hands-on experience in e-waste recycling machine design and commissioning. We do not just sell equipment—we deliver complete EPC (Engineering, Procurement, Construction) projects, providing customized plant design, installation, commissioning, and ongoing technical support.
To build the leading international brand in WEEE and e-waste recycling by deeply understanding customer requirements, fostering win-win cooperation, and delivering professional international marketing and customer relationship management.
Complete Product Portfolio for Every Recycling Need
San Lan manufactures a comprehensive range of recycling machinery across 13 product categories. Whether you are starting a new recycling facility or upgrading existing operations, we provide the equipment and expertise to maximize recovery rates and profitability.
Battery Recycling Solutions
Batteries represent one of the fastest-growing waste streams globally. Our lead acid battery recycling equipment breaks and separates used batteries to recover acid, plastic shells, lead grids, and lead paste with capacities ranging from 1 to 10 metric tons per hour. The system includes breaking and separation units, de-sulfurization systems, rotary furnaces for paste reduction, blast furnaces with 95% lead recovery rates, and refinery kettles that produce 99.999% pure lead.
For lithium-ion batteries, our recycling plant handles 500–2,500 kg per hour, recovering black mass (nickel, cobalt, graphite), plastic, copper, and aluminum. The integrated air pollution control system ensures all emissions meet strict environmental requirements.
Circuit Board and Cable Recovery
Printed circuit boards contain valuable copper and precious metals, but improper processing wastes these resources and creates toxic pollution. Our circuit board recycling equipment uses both dry and wet separation technologies to achieve 96–98% copper powder purity and 95% overall recovery rates. Capacities range from 300 kg/hour for smaller operations to 2,000 kg/hour for industrial-scale plants.
For scrap cables, San Lan offers a complete cable recycling equipment lineup including scrap cable strippers for cables from 1.5 mm to 150 mm in diameter, and cable granulators with dry separators that efficiently separate copper and aluminum from plastic insulation.
Additional Recycling and Mining Equipment
- Refrigerator & AC recycling machines – Extract refrigerant safely and separate metals, plastics, and polyurethane with recovery rates exceeding 90%.
- CRT recycling machines – Cut and separate CRT panels and funnels, collecting phosphor powder for safe disposal.
- Motor recycling machines – Dismantle electric motors to extract copper windings from stator cores efficiently.
- Industrial shredders – Single, double, and four-shaft shredders for pre-processing e-waste, cables, plastics, and metals.
- Lithium ore extraction plants – Process lithium crude ore and tailings to produce high-grade lithium concentrate with recovery rates up to 75%.
- Metal melting furnaces – Medium frequency induction furnaces to melt recycled metals into ingots for resale.

Global Reach, Local Support
San Lan has installed recycling equipment in over 21 countries across Asia, Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East. Our international customers include operators in Singapore, Colombia, Vietnam, Mexico, Argentina, Korea, Malaysia, Indonesia, South Africa, Tunisia, India, Kenya, Saudi Arabia, Philippines, Zambia, and Israel.
This global footprint reflects our commitment to delivering reliable equipment that performs under diverse conditions, from tropical climates to arid environments. Every plant is designed with local factors in mind, ensuring stable operation and minimal downtime.
Quality and Environmental Compliance
All San Lan equipment is engineered to meet international environmental standards. Our air pollution control systems absorb and neutralize harmful gases before emission. Water treatment plants handle acidic wastewater from battery recycling processes. Dust collection systems ensure clean working environments and regulatory compliance.
We continuously refine our designs to improve energy efficiency and recovery rates. For example, our electric lead refinery kettles use near-infrared heating technology that saves 30–50% energy compared to conventional fuel-heated systems.
