Through the creation of a series of intense rotational vortices, the Torxx Kinetic Pulverizer (KP) achieves size reduction across a broad variety of materials, with lower maintenance and utility costs, improved equipment uptime/reliability, and tighter particle size distribution than traditional grinding, shredding, cutting, and hammer mill processes. Ductile material is reduced to a “fluff” and brittle material to fine granules, enabling a variety of options for processing into useful recovered materials and increased landfill diversion.

Basic Features:

• Alternative to traditional size-reduction technologies (grinding, shredding, hammer mill, etc.)
• Rotating blades create a series of intense rotational vortices, causing particles to collide into each other at high speeds.
• Ductile materials are reduced to “fluff” and brittle materials are reduced to fine granules.

Benefits:

• Ability to control desired average particle size
• Tighter particle size distribution than traditional size reduction technologies
• Capable of processing a broad range of materials (rock, concrete, glass, metals, plastics, wood, biomass, mixed-MSW, and compost)
• Homogenization of mixed materials
• Significantly reduced maintenance and utility cost vs. traditional size reduction
• Very dependable, reliable, high machine uptime
• Lowest total cost of ownership (capital + operating costs) per ton of material processed
• After-market service and support through the Marathon dealer network
