Average 1.5 tons/ annum BULB RECYCLING
Bulb Eater crushes spent fluorescent lamps of any length into 100% recyclable material while capturing over 99.99% of the vapours released. The unit is equipped with a side-mounted dust filter unit containing the highest quality H.E.P.A. filter available. This works in conjunction with an activated carbon filter located in the steel canister. The activated carbon filter actively captures and neutralizes the mercury vapour released from the lamps during crushing. This recycling system will help industry to manage their used fluorescent lamp generated mainly from maintenance programme. This will also help to reduce the number of fluorescent lamp dumped into landfill, which can cause land and water contamination. SPENT BULB
