Green Technology Applied to Cable Processing

Introduction: The urgency of sustainable innovation

The increase in electronics consumption and the resulting generation of cables and wires as waste have brought new environmental challenges. Much of this material contains copper, aluminum, and plastics, which, if not processed correctly, leads to resource waste and pollution.

The application of green technology emerges as a solution to ensure that processing is efficient, clean, and economically viable.

What green technology means in cable processing

Green technology refers to the use of methods, machines, and processes that reduce environmental impacts while improving efficiency. In cable processing, this involves:

• High-efficiency shredders that separate metals and plastics with low energy consumption.

• Air filtration systems that reduce particle emissions during processing.

• Processes free from aggressive chemicals, avoiding environmental contamination.

• Smart automation, which increases separation precision and minimizes material losses.

Environmental benefits of green technology

• Reduced volume of waste sent to landfills.

• Recovery of valuable metals with high purity.

• Lower CO₂ emissions by replacing mining processes.

• Conservation of natural resources by reusing raw materials.

Economic and social benefits

In addition to environmental gains, green technology brings economic and social results:

• Higher recovery efficiency → more raw material returned to industry.

• Cost reduction for companies that send their cables for processing.

• Creation of skilled jobs in the operation of modern equipment.

• Enhanced corporate image in ESG reporting.
