Patent No. EP2668445 (titled "Processing Of Waste Incineration Ashes") was filed by Beckmann on Mar 2, 2012. The application was issued on Nov 3, 2021.

Patent Summary

A method and device for processing waste incineration ash, particularly household waste incineration ash (HMVA), through wet classification in a separate processing plant. The method involves classifying the ash into a pollutant-laden fine fraction and a low-pollutant or pollutant-free coarse fraction using gentle-on-grain classification processes, with the fine fraction containing the majority of pollutants. The device comprises a processing plant with a closed liquid circuit that enables prolonged interaction between the ash and liquid, allowing for efficient recovery of valuable materials such as phosphates.
