Advanced Density Separation for Cleaner C&D Recycling

Caracal® Density Separators provide an efficient solution for recycling Construction and Demolition (C&D) waste by separating heavy mineral materials from light contaminants using a water-based flotation process. Heavy materials such as concrete, brick and aggregates sink, while wood, plastics and other light materials float and are removed separately, improving the quality of recovered materials.

Designed for reliable operation in demanding recycling environments, the system helps increase recovery rates while reducing landfill volumes and environmental impact. Clean aggregates produced by the separator can be reused in new construction applications, supporting more sustainable material processing.

A typical Density Separator system includes:

• Heavy fraction discharge conveyor

• Floating material removal conveyor with brushes

• Water sump and separation tank

• Feeding chute

• Discharge conveyor

• Optional silt screw for fine particle removal

Our Density Separators offer:

• High material purity

• Low operating costs

• Compact and modular design

Whether installed as part of a complete recycling plant or integrated into an existing operation, GRAU Density Separators help producers maximise resource recovery and improve recycling efficiency.
