Webinar Series: Recycling and waste management

Welcome to Our Recycling Webinar Series!

Recycling is an essential part of our efforts toward a more sustainable future. It not only helps reduce waste but also allows valuable materials to be reused, preventing them from being lost. In a world that increasingly relies on resource conservation, the efficient handling of waste and materials is more important than ever.

Our webinar series covers a wide range of recycling topics, providing valuable insights into the processes and technologies needed for the effective reuse of materials. Whether it’s construction waste, textile scraps, spent batteries, or plastics – each session addresses specific challenges and solutions.

In this series, the innovative RETSCH equipment is prominently featured, playing a key role in quality control and processing of recycling materials worldwide. From sample preparation and size reduction to sieving and pellet pressing, RETSCH offers an extensive range of devices that pave the way for efficient recycling.

The Webinars in Detail:

March 5th/6th: Construction Materials and Mining Waste (with Dr. Tanja Butt)
June 24th/25th: Textiles, Leather, Paper, and Organic Waste (with Dr. Tanja Butt)
July 7th/8th: Spent Batteries, Metals, and Electronic Scrap (with Dr. Lena Weigold)
September 22nd/23rd: Polymers and Plastics (with Dr. Lena Weigold)

Each session not only provides theoretical insights but also practical solutions, live demonstrations of selected equipment, and best practices that will help you improve efficiency and quality in your recycling processes.

Construction Materials and Mining Waste

Construction materials such as bricks, glass, ceramics and mining waste are often hard and brittle. Wood is softer but tough. For meaningful analysis, quality control laboratories require representative samples, which makes homogenization necessary as part of sample preparation. Ideally, this step involves as little work as possible and is perfectly adapted to the samples properties and the subsequent analytical steps. Recycling also deals with larger sample quantities as the materials shall be re-used and re-purposed, which is also adressed in this webinar.

In this webinar you will learn more about:

Homogenization, standard deviation, correct analysis values
How do I find the optimal method for my sample
Suitable laboratory mills for homogenizing - also for larger sample quantities
Live demos of selected mills
Many application examples with best practices
Grain size determination using sieve analysis
Pellet pressing for XRF Analysis
Retsch Mills in research approaches
Plus: Time for your questions!

Textile, Leather, Paper, Organic waste

Textiles, especially leather can be really tough and not easy to homogenize prior to analysis. For meaningful analysis, quality control laboratories require representative homogeneous samples. Ideally, this step involves as little work as possible and is perfectly adapted to the samples properties and the subsequent analytical steps. Recycling also deals with larger sample quantities as the materials shall be re-used and re-purposed, which is also adressed in this webinar. Paper recycling and the recycling of organic materials such as garden residues or food waste is also part of this webinar.

In this webinar you will learn more about:

Homogenization of Tough Samples: Ensuring Accurate Analysis
Finding the Optimal Method for Your specific Sample
Suitable Laboratory Mills for Homogenizing Larger Sample Quantities
Live Demonstrations of Selected Mills
Best Practices with Application Examples
Sieve Analysis and fractionizing
Pellet Pressing for XRF Analysis
Research Approaches using Retsch Mills
Q&A Session

Spent Batteries, Metals and Electronic Scrap

Homogenization of spent batteries, metal parts or electronic scrap can be challenging to obtain a representative part sample prior to analysis. Ideally, this step involves as little work as possible and is perfectly adapted to the samples properties and the subsequent analytical steps. Recycling also deals with larger sample quantities as the materials shall be re-used and re-purposed, which is also adressed in this webinar.

In this webinar you will learn more about:

Homogenization, standard deviation, correct analysis values
How do I find the optimal method for my challenging sample
Suitable laboratory mills for homogenizing - also for larger sample quantities
Live demos of selected mills
Many application examples with best practices
Grain size determination using sieve analysis
Pellet pressing for XRF Analysis
Retsch Mills in research approaches
Plus: Time for your questions!

Polymers and Plastics

Homogenization of polymers and plastics can be challenging to obtain a representative part sample prior to analysis. Ideally, this step involves as little work as possible and is perfectly adapted to the samples properties and the subsequent analytical steps. Recycling also deals with larger sample quantities as the materials shall be re-used and re-purposed, which is also adressed in this webinar.
