ZETTL gmbH at the world's leading trade fair for environmental technologies IFAT for the first time.
The product portfolio of the medium-sized expert for remediation and recycling technologies has been perfectly expanded with the development of a central process method for battery recycling and the acquisition of MRT System AB's BPD technology for mercury treatment.

The medium-sized company ZETTL GmbH has been successfully established in machine and apparatus construction for over 60 years. The traditional business areas of drying and vacuum technology have been successively expanded to include innovative and sophisticated recycling technologies. "Demand from our customers in this segment has increased enormously, partly because the regenerative energy market is a highly dynamic growth market. It is in the company's tradition to constantly face new challenges," says Managing Director Michael Zettl.

IFAT, the world's leading trade fair for environmental technologies, is the right place to present new ZETTL technologies. The focus will be on various procedures and processes that are carried out at temperature and in a vacuum.

The recycling of batteries is a highly topical issue. A central process step is the removal of the liquid electrolytes from the shredded battery masses. ZETTL does this in a particularly efficient and environmentally friendly way with fully automated vacuum drying systems and has developed into an important partner for the entire industry.

RPD systems (rotating process distillers) are used to process contaminated soil or waste from the oil and gas industry, for example. The mercury obtained in this process can be converted into a high-quality raw material in the BPD (Batch Process Distiller). BPD systems are particularly suitable for removing mercury from thermometers, electronic components, amalgam and medical waste. Over 300 mercury treatment systems have been installed worldwide. Alternatively, the ZETTL MSU (Mercury Stabilization Unit) can be used to convert metallic mercury into mercury sulphide (cinnabar) for safe disposal.

"We process a wide range of residual and waste materials, whereby the recyclable materials are separated, processed and then passed on to the circular economy for reuse. This is cost-effective and sustainable for nature and the environment," says Michael Zettl, Managing Director of the medium-sized company.

ZETTL GmbH has its headquarters in Munich and a branch office in the southern Harz region of central Germany. The staff of 20 engineers, technicians and employees generate an annual turnover of 6 million euros.

Zettl GmbH is looking for qualified specialists, such as CAD designers and project managers for order processing, both at its headquarters in Munich and at its branch office in Berga.
