SELFRAG is specialised in waste-to-value solutions for incinerator bottom ash. We reduce the volume of waste ending up in landfills for a circular economy.
How can waste from a recycling facility be recycled again?
When hearing about waste-to-value for the first time, the concept might seem confusing.
We got a camera into our new waste-to-value plant Centro Uno to demonstrate the process:
Building Centro Uno in one minute.
From requesting the building permit in May 2021 to starting the ramp-up phase last April: watch how we built our first Swiss waste-to-value plant in Full-Reuenthal.

One week ago today we invited our partners and supporters to celebrate the inauguration of Centro Uno with us. Have a look at the video we made to remember this milestone – or read all about it on our new blogpost: https://t.co/18biyoH3wf
"We are proud to have such an innovative company in our small community."
Thank you @AargauerZeitung for reporting on the inauguration of Centro Uno.

Big news: Centro Uno, our first waste-to-value plant, is officially up and running!
We'd like to thank all of our partners and the authorities for their support. A thank you also to the 80+ guests who joined us for the inauguration in Full-Reuenthal, Aargau last Thursday.
At 7.40am on March 7, 2023, #Selfrag's incinerator bottom ash (IBA) treatment facility, in Full-Reuenthal, Switzerland, received its first delivery of IBA for treatment.
The arrival of 26,990 kg's was a welcomed milestone for Selfrag.

Selfrag has successfully moved two #Generators to its Full-Reuenthal Site. The generators weighing 3.6 & 3 tons were delivered via truck (pictured below). The Centro Uno site is set to become operational next week. For additional insight, please visit https://t.co/oaDt07dKX2
#Selfrag raises 14.3 million CHF to further develop the expansion of its Waste to Value activities.
We would like to thank our partners and investors including @tech_fund and UBS. Please visit our website https://t.co/KCxfauNpiZ to see our latest Press Release in full.
We disintegrate rocks & recover intact minerals fast with electric pulse fragmentation.
Here we liberate shocked #apatite from the McKinney Meteorite with researchers from @EarthSciCam@PurdueEAPS and @SUERC1 using a @SELFRAG_AG System - perfect for small valuable samples.
This fantastic video from @BritGeoSurvey starring @DianaSahy showcases our Lab-scale electrodynamic fragmentation system. The target mineral pops right out undamaged - perfect if you want large clean mineral separates. Contact #BGS to ask about facility access. #NERC
Isotope research scientist @DianaSahy shows us how the SELFRAG machine breaks up rocks using lightning ⚡ to fragment rock along boundaries between minerals. This has real-world applications tied to recycling and sustainability.

⚡️ The zapped #copper#porphyry was treated @ ~1tph on a #selfrag continuous pilot plant. HV discharges pass through the ore along mineral interfaces, weakening the bond between minerals, which then fall apart, liberating valuable components. 1/3

Fractures generated in a porphyry during ⚡️processing.
These cracks weaken the hard material, meaning less energy is needed grind the rock to get out the valuable #copper & #gold, reducing the overall energy needed to make high tech electronics.
