RecEOL involves the use of only one single unit for a multiproduct recycling facility.

The waste material is added to molten salt at operating temperatures of 300-450oC. The molten salt separates the metals: liquid solder, e.g., at the bottom of the reactor, while the solid copper floats on the solder making material recovery easy.
As the waste is in direct contact with molten salt, treatment time is as short resulting in the smallest, most cost-effective reactor. Scale-up is also straightforward, i.e., doubling the surface area of the molten material doubles throughput.
