Aerut announced on the 6th that its recycling specialist subsidiary Aerut Eco successfully held the completion ceremony for the first resource circulation plant located in Seosan-si, South Chungcheong Province.
This completion ceremony was attended by Seosan City officials, as well as ▲ Assemblyman Lim Oh-kyung ▲ Former Vice Minister of Environment Lee Jeong-seop ▲ Wolfgang Kostinger, Commercial Counsellor at the Austrian Embassy in Korea ▲ SK Ecoplant Advisor Dr. Kim Gyeong-ho ▲ President Kim Seok-wan of the Korean Society for Waste Management ▲ Director Cho Joo-hyun of the Environmental Industry Department at the Environmental Industry & Technology Institute, and other key figures and experts in the recycling field from Korea and abroad.
In addition, key executives from Germany’s Zerma, Austria’s Komptech and Binder also participated to solidify their partnership with Eirut Eco. The three companies manufacture cutting-edge equipment optimized for the recycling industry and supply equipment to the global market.
Aerut Eco has built the Seosan plant by applying world-class facilities in cooperation with European recycling facility specialists. The Seosan Resource Recycling Plant has a site area of approximately 20,000 square meters (approximately 6,200 pyeong), and can recycle over 75,000 tons (t) of waste synthetic resin annually in just Plant 1. Aerut Eco plans to gradually expand CAPA (production capacity) to Plants 2 and 3 in the future.
Aerut Eco plans to fully maximize its recycling business sales starting this year. It has already started operating its facilities since its completion last month. The company explained that it will secure a stable supply of raw materials by taking advantage of the plant’s geographic proximity to the Daesan Petrochemical Complex and the metropolitan area, and then supply fuel to construction material companies.
An Aerut official said, “Through collaboration with leading global companies, we were able to complete a resource circulation plant equipped with world-class recycling facilities and Asia’s highest level of automation facilities,” adding, “Aerut Eco’s Seosan plant is a next-generation resource circulation plant that is attracting attention not only domestically but also around the world as it maximizes productivity and yield with large-scale facilities and advanced automation technology.”
He continued, “As the global recycling market is growing rapidly, cost reduction through large-scale automation is a key element in establishing a sustainable resource circulation ecosystem.” He added, “We will continue to strengthen cooperation with domestic and foreign companies and invest in technology and facilities to become a leading global recycling company.”
