Modern Automatic Refrigerator Dismantling Recycling Machine

The rapid growth of household appliance consumption has significantly increased global demand for efficient and environmentally responsible waste-refrigerator recycling systems. A modern refrigerator recycling line is designed to safely dismantle used refrigerators, recover valuable metals, and process insulation foam without causing secondary pollution. After removing the glass panel, plastic seal, compressor, condenser, and refrigerant, the remaining refrigerator shell enters the automatic recycling line, where it is transformed into reusable materials such as plastic, copper, aluminum, iron, foam, and electric cables. This system provides a complete and sustainable solution for appliance processing plants, metal recyclers, and environmental projects seeking safe and profitable waste-resource recovery.

The core process integrates a disassembly platform, double-shaft shredder (or four shaft shredder), secondary hammer crusher, zig-zag separator, magnetic separator, eddy current separator, airflow separation system, and exhaust-gas treatment unit. Refrigerators are first manually pre-processed to remove glass and plastics, followed by refrigerant recovery using a dedicated refrigerant recycling device. The units then undergo primary and secondary crushing to liberate all material layers. Polyurethane foam is removed by air separation, ferrous metals are extracted by magnetic separation, and copper and aluminum are recovered through eddy current separation. Plastics and foam are further purified through airflow classification, and foam blocks are compressed for easy storage and reuse. All processes are fully sealed and supported by activated-carbon filtration and dust-collection systems to ensure clean, safe, and compliant operation.

This refrigerator recycling system offers high throughput, low energy consumption, and exceptional material-purity performance. A standard line can process up to 40–50 refrigerators per hour, making it ideal for large-scale recycling centers. Features such as force-feeding pre-shredders, vertical shredding technology, high-intensity drum magnets, non-ferrous eddy current separators, and reverse-jet filtration ensure maximum material recovery and minimum contamination. The system is equipped with PLC control and real-time monitoring, linking all components to maintain stable production, protect against overload, and achieve long-term operational reliability. Optional water-spray and misting modules maintain safe processing temperatures and offer enhanced fire protection.

Beyond refrigerators, this versatile recycling line can also process air conditioners, waste fridge, washing machines, freezers, dishwashers, televisions, and mixed household appliances. Its shock-absorption design requires no foundation and can be installed directly on the workshop floor. Material size can be adjusted through hydraulic discharge-port control, and chain replacement requires only 20 minutes, ensuring low maintenance costs and reduced downtime. The system’s flexibility makes it suitable for aluminum briquettes, mixed scrap aluminum, and other metal-plastic composite waste streams, maximizing the recycling plant’s overall return on investment.
