Introduction
1.5 Product recycling/disposal
Recycling of equipment and packaging should be taken into consideration and disposed of in accordance
with local and national legislation/regulations.
Recycling or disposal should be done following instructions for correct separation of materials when
breaking up the units.
1.6 Packing material
Rosemount Tank Radar AB is fully certified according to ISO 14001 environmental standards. By recycling
the corrugated paperboard, or wooden boxes, used for shipping our products you can contribute to take
care of the environment.
1.6.1 Reuse and recycling
Experience has shown that wooden boxes can be used several times for various purposes. After careful
disassembly the wooden parts may be reused. Metal waste may be converted.
1.6.2 Energy recovery
Products which have served their time may be divided into wood and metal components and the wood
can be used as fuel in sufficient ovens.
Due to its low moisture content (approximately 7%) this fuel has a higher calorific value than ordinary
wood fuel (moisture content approximately 20%).
When burning interior plywood the nitrogen in the adhesives may increase emissions of nitrogen oxides
to the air 3-4 times more than when burning bark and splinter.
Note
Landfill is not a recycling option and should be avoided.
