Pilot investment for Estonia: “Waste-to-product mobile unit”

Estonian pilot unit is for testing oil shale waste rock. Produces limestone aggregate and oil shale. Possible use of produced limestone aggregate is construction industry or backfill material for oil shale mines. Oil shale can be used for oil shale oil, cement or energy production.

Consists of three phases:
1) selective crusching with crushing bucket
2)  sieving unit
3) wet separation unit
