ABSTRACT:
To insure that rejects or scraps of composite materials such as printed wiring boards that consist of the mixture of metal and non-metal parts are separated into the metal and non-metal components with good precision so that both components can be recovered as recyclable valuables, the composite materials are broken into pieces by means of a shearing machine or the like and the pieces are thereafter ground with a hammer mill or the like to form a mixed powder consisting of metal and non-metal particles, which mixed powder is then fed continuously on to a belt conveyor inclined at an angle with respect to a line perpendicular to the direction of travel, whereby the metal particles are efficiently separated from the non-metal particles; the recovered metal particles being fed to an electrostatic separator to obtain higher grade of concentration by removing the non-metal inclusions.
