CDE is hosting a new webinar to help quarry operators in Australia and New Zealand unlock and maximise value from sand and aggregates materials in today’s regulatory environment.
The demand for high-quality sand and aggregates continues to grow, but variability in recycled and natural materials can limit profitability. In today’s increasingly competitive market and ever-evolving regulatory landscape, producers must maximise value from every tonne processed.
This will be the focus of an upcoming webinar on Tuesday, October 28, when wet processing experts from CDE will outline how producers can unlock greater value from their sand and aggregates by improving material quality, reducing waste, and boosting profitability.
The 45-minute session will highlight how CDE’s equipment line – including its latest innovation, the AggPulse wet density aggregates separator, as well as its CFCU density and sizing classification system, and ShearClean attrition cells – are helping operators move materials up the value chain.
Discussions will be led by CDE head of sales for Asia Pacific James Murphy and technical engineer Conor McCaughey alongside guest speaker Brees Group founder Brees Group founder Brayden Rees. With over 20 years of experience in the resource recovery industry, Rees has held senior leadership roles at both state and national levels across a range of organisations. His background spans key waste streams including liquid, hydrocarbon, civil, and industrial, giving him a broad and practical perspective on sustainable recycling and resource recovery.
Equipment spotlight
By forcing pulsating air through a water-immersed bed of C&D waste, CDE’s AggPulse agitates and separates material fractions based on density. While lighter contaminants float to the top for separation, heavier material settle in the bed of the unit ensuring valuable aggregates continue through the process for further washing and sizing.
CDE’s CFCU provides an effective system for removing lightweight contamination from fine material fractions. Water is then removed from the CFCU underflows on the dewatering screens, and the clean sand is then stockpiled.
The webinar will also feature CDE’s ShearClean Attrition Cells, a patented technology designed for unrivalled contaminant removal from fine material feeds. With a unique paddle design that maximises material-on-material impact, ShearClean delivers consistent scrubbing performance to produce high-quality, in-spec sands. Its efficient design reduces power demand and operational costs, while robust features such as rubber-lined cells and an integrated oil cooling system ensure long-term reliability and maximum up-time.
“With waste streams becoming increasingly dirty and complex, integrating CDE’s CFCU, ShearClean, and AggPulse technologies has been transformative for our customers operations,” Murphy said.
“The integration of CDE’s CFCU and ShearClean technologies at sites like PF Formation Sand & Gravel and Visy, has unlocked new levels of efficiency in fines recovery and contaminant removal from sand fractions, allowing materials to be upgraded and reintroduced into the value chain.
“With the addition of AggPulse to a washing process, valuable aggregates an also be separated from the dirtiest waste streams. It’s a game-changer for moving material up the value chain. This webinar will showcase how these innovations are driving circularity and profitability in modern waste recycling or aggregates washing operations.”
The webinar will take place at 10am AEST / 11am AEDT / 2pm NZDT.
