Ultra-competitiveness goes through Magaldi in Nissan Cantabria

As part of the "Ultra Competitiveness 2020-2023" plan launched by the Japanese parent company, Nissan Cantabria received funding to promote the technological modernization of their Spanish foundry located in Los Corrales de Buelnas. This led to Magaldi being awarded a turnkey order for two (2) Superbelt® conveyors to serve the new DISA vertical molding line.

The first conveyor loads the shot-blasting machine placed 5 meters high, while the second conveyor is installed downstream to transport sprues, runners, and gates to the scrap collecting bay. The first section of the conveyor features reversed sidewalls to ensure safe and ergonomic casting sorting and degating.

TrAsh or Treasure? The Circular Promise of Dry Ash Management

01 July 2025

Every ton of municipal solid waste processed in WtE plants contains valuable metals hidden within Incinerator Bottom Ash (IBA). Recovering these metals offers a significant opportunity, with potential revenues reaching up to €30 per ton of waste. Moreover, recycling these materials could prevent 20–30 million tons of CO₂ emissions each year. MADAM (MAgaldi Dry Ash Management) system transforms this process by keeping IBA dry, which enhances recovery rates and preserves the quality of the metals. This innovative approach not only increases market value but also contributes to substantial carbon savings.
