· The four stage separation process begins with an initial cutting of the waste PCB material followed by a vacuum pyrolysis process producing an oil and a gas with the majority being a solid residue which undergoes crushing and size classification . These fractions of classified pyrolysis residues were separated into a light fraction of mostly non-metallic components and a heavy fraction of copper by gravity separation
Eddy current separation technique is used for separating metals from nonmetal component for example, aluminum from glass, which cannot be done by gravity methods as the difference in the densities of aluminum and glass is very small. Other applications will be described in Chapter 7 on Metal Recycling. A schematic representation of eddy current separation is shown in Figure 3.23.
