Emerald Screening Philadelphia

In modern recycling and waste management operations, trommel screens play a vital role in material separation and processing efficiency. At CRS NI, our trommel systems are engineered for performance, durability, and versatility — designed to handle a wide range of materials, including construction and demolition waste, commercial and industrial waste, mixed dry recyclables, WEEE, gypsum, compost, and auto shredder residue (ASR). In this article, we explore what a trommel is, how it works, where it’s used, and why operators benefit from our heavy-duty trommel screens.

The waste management industry is undergoing a technological revolution. With growing demand for efficient, sustainable recycling, AI-powered systems and robotics are transforming how facilities sort, process, and recover materials. At CRS NI, we are leading the way with integrated automated solutions that improve throughput, reduce contamination, and increase operational efficiency.

Every recycling plant faces the same pressure: improve recovery rates, reduce costs, and keep operators safe. But when it comes to sorting materials, is it better to invest in automated machinery — or stick with manual picking? Here’s a closer look at the key differences, and how to choose the right solution for your site.

If you're running a waste processing plant, your system is your business. But even solid setups can become bottlenecks over time. Whether you’re working with C&D, C&I, MDR, gypsum, or WEEE, here are five clear signs it’s time to consider an upgrade — and how CRS NI can help you get more out of every tonne.
