On the road to circular economy: we are going to increase the global recycling rate

To achieve this, it is necessary to make recycling economically viable worldwide. We are meeting this challenge with BLUELINE.

BLUELINE - The modular recycling system for industrial waste

BLUELINE is a dynamically reconfigurable processing system in modular construction.

The arrangement of the container-based processing units (modules) is individually adapted to the required treatment process. We can fall back on an an extensive product rangewhich covers almost all established process steps of the dry mechanical-physical residue treatment - all from one supplier and coordinated with each other.

The decentralized IT-based control takes place wirelessly by means of tablet.This completely new type of system control enables reproducible processing successes for different material flows. Machine parameters that have been established for a preparation process are available at any time and are set fully automatically by the system - depending on the material flow being prepared. In addition to the intelligent control system, BLUELINE also includes complete conveying and dosing technology.

We will provide you with further information about BLUELINE step by step until our official market launch in 2021. Visit us again and get to know all our modules and further details. With our newsletter you will receive all information conveniently in your inbox.

What advantages does BLUELINE offer?

System solution

The product range covers almost all established process steps of dry mechanical-physical residue treatment. An all-in-one solution with conveyor technology and control on board.

Flexibility

The modular design allows an individual process arrangement adapted to the input material as well as a simple expansion of the plant.

Mobility

All modules are designed as 20 foot containers. This design allows an uncomplicated use of common means of transport such as ship, train and truck.

Industry 4.0

The IT-based control system supports the user during setup, configuration and commissioning and enables ongoing optimization and cross-location monitoring.

Independent of location

BLUELINE supports both centralized and decentralized processing of industrial waste materials. All that is needed is a power supply - which is efficient and sustainable.

Integration

With the BLUEBOX, BLUELINE can be connected downstream to an existing system.

Economic efficiency

BLUELINE enables economical processing even with frequently changing, different and small batches of industrial waste materials. We are constantly developing our modules even further. Thus your plant is always state-of-the-art.

More information about the potential of BLUELINE will be published here in the upcoming weeks. Visit us again, or register to receive our newsletter.

LINETECHNOLOGY GmbH

We have set ourselves the goal of using our technology to contribute to the preservation of our planet by increasing the global importance of recycling.

However, since this does not work by good will alone, it requires first-class solutions that also bring economic benefits. This is exactly what we offer with BLUELINE.

LINETECHNOLOGY GmbH was founded in 2019 out of a research and development facility of IFE Aufbereitungstechnik GmbH.

What led to the development of BLUELINE?

Our world is in a constant state of change which is, however, more and more strongly influenced by humans, driven by economic interests and the resulting overexploitation of our natural resources. Terms such as "Circular Economy" or "Cradle to Cradle" describe visions and objectives to prevent our planet from being burdened even more by our consumer society.

For decades, IFE Aufbereitungstechnik GmbH has been developing and producing innovative machines in the field of conveying, screening, sealing and magnet technology, thus making a decisive contribution to achieving these goals in the construction of new stationary recycling units.

However, in order to enable "Circular Economy" and "Cradle to Cradle" on a global scale, a technology that makes both decentralized recycling and the processing of small quantities of industrial residual fractions economically feasible is also needed apart from central stationary processing plants.

Conceptually and under the patronage of IFE Aufbereitungstechnik GmbH, this new type of flexible processing became more and more extensive as the project progressed. Its complete implementation also made the implementation of separation technologies from other companies and thus cooperation with them inevitable.

The resulting contradiction to the existing company strategy of IFE Aufbereitungstechnik GmbH, as well as the market and the close-to-production manufacturing requirements necessary for the implementation were the decisive factors for the decision to spin off BLUELINE and the project team concerned into an independent company, LINETECHNOLOGY GmbH.

LINETECHNOLOGY GmbH will establish itself on the market as a sister company of IFE Aufbereitungstechnik GmbH, completely independent and without interdependencies, and offers modular, dynamically reconfigurable, container-based processing plants under the name BLUELINE.
