Frequently asked questions

  • WHAT’S SO SPECIAL ABOUT THIS PROCESS OF OUR LANTOS PHÖNIX WT/E©?

    • Unique and sustainable technology system perfectly adapted to your problematic waste.

    • Flexible modular system that can easily be integrated into almost each existing plant system.

    • The functioning of our Phönix WT/E© plant corresponds to a concentrated and controlled tornado (international patent application filed).

    • Moisture is separated through mere mechanical energy and not through conventional expensive thermal energy. This results in a minimization of material that in turn requires lower logistics expenditures and consequently lower CO2 emissions.

    • The final product can be adapted to the wishes of the customer as regards degree of moisture, grain size and sterilization.

  • What type of substances can be processed?

    • Organic waste material such as domestic waste, industrial and commercial waste, hospital waste, sewage sludge, offal, disposable diapers, contaminated wood, etc.

    • Inorganic waste such as slags, industrial sludge, hazardous waste, metal chips, electronic waste, soil, ore-bearing rock, mining waste, etc.

  • Which are the field of application of Lantos Phönix WT/E ©?

    • Recycling companies who attach great importance to the degree of crushing/sorting accuracy as well as the moisture content for further recirculation (creation of higher value – reduction of landfill costs)
    • Cities, communities, industries (slag processing, filter/sewage sludges, residues that have an excessive moisture content and that are sometimes difficult to separate for further processing)
    • Metal industry (materials that are difficult to separate, for instance metals contaminated with oil and drilling water)
    • Industrial and commercial waste, waste from hospitals, nursing and care centers
    • Rendering, fattening farms, forestation plants, tillage, agricultural enterprises (custom-made earth)
    • RDF – processing plants
    • Cosmetics and food industry
    • Automotive industry, glass recycling, cement and concrete industry
    • Mining (raw material – ore production)
    • And many more

  • Which are the end products?

    • A sterile, dry, crushed end product (according to customer requirements)

    • Sterilization at a temperature of 160°C to 170°C

    • Residual moisture not exceeding 3 %

    • Crushing – up to 2 µm

  • What is the difference compared to other plants?

    • A unique and sustainable technology
    • Speed, efficiency, energy saving, optimization of logistics
    • Everything from one source: basic concept or adaptation of a plant – we analyze and together with you, we will find a solution
    • Planning, cost determination, project development, design, production, modification/adaptation, start-up, full/after-sales service, – together we will keep track of everything!

  • How many tons can be processed?

    • 1 – 5 tons per hour, depending on the source material

  • What is the space requirement for LANTOS PHÖNIX WT/E©?

    • Our plant PhönixWT/E© is extremely space-saving and requires a surface of only 80-100 sqm approx. (incl. compressor, feeder and material evacuation, heat recovery, exhaust filtering, separation, control cabinet).
