A method of separating solid waste materials, in the form of dried particles of substantially uniform size, into constituent materials on the basis of density, with primary stage processing utilizing one or more fluidized bed and cyclonic separator assemblies to separate materials on the basis of density, is provided by the invention. Secondary stage processing utilizing combinations of vibratory conveyors and melt separation assemblies, is also provided. As the waste materials move through the separator assemblies the initial stream is further refined into a plurality of streams of increasingly specific densities as a result of air flow separation of lighter particles from heavier particles in each assembly. Further refined separation may be achieved through the use of vibratory conveyors and melt separation. Air flow separator assembly apparatus and melt separator apparatus, including a plurality of belts each heated to a selected temperature for temporary adhesion of plastic particles thereto, is also provided by the invention.
摘要:
Thermoplastic articles are removed from a mixed waste stream and are sorted by heating the articles along the path of the waste stream to different softening temperatures of the different types of articles before the articles contact the separating bodies which have surface formations that are forced into the softened zones of the thermoplastic article so that the articles are impaled upon the body. The articles are then removed. The force with which the softened articles are impaled is obtained by a support or counterforce member juxtaposed with the separating bodies.

A method is described for recycling the infill of a synthetic turf, said infill being formed by a plurality of different granular materials, including at least sand granules, polymeric material granules and synthetic grass filaments, said method comprising the following steps: drying the infill, screening the infill through a plurality of successive screens (130,140,180,185) each having passage holes of different sizes subdividing the infill into a plurality of groups of granular material having different size ranges, separating each group of granular material into two subgroups of granular material based on the difference in density of the materials, and conveying the separated subgroups of granular materials to different collection containers.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a process for separating two or more components of a plastic material for the purposes of recycling, with particular application to purifying poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) during recycling procedures. The process comprises contacting a quantity of the plastic material with one or more discrete pre-heated particles.
摘要:
A three phase method of treating solid waste to eliminate hazards and preserve the resource value of the constituent materials, separating and recovering the constituent materials, and productively using those constituent materials, includes, in the first phase, steps to separate ferrous metal constituents from the waste stream, shred and grind the solid wastes to generally uniform small particles, dry the waste material to remove essentially all free moisture and render the wastes biologically inert, compact the dried waste materials into uniform high density blocks, and encapsulate the compacted blocks; includes, in the second phase, steps to return the compacted blocks to uniform particles and separate the combined constituent materials on the basis of density, with primary processing utilizing a series of fluidized bed and cyclonic separator assemblies and with secondary processing utilizing combinations of vibratory conveyors, melt separation assemblies, and the like; and includes, in the third phase, steps to further separate and refine selected recovered materials by chemical treatment, prepare selected materials for reuse, and apparatus and method of producing a composite material by extruding a hollow body, pumping a slurry of particles and uncured binder material into the interior of the hollow body, and curing the binder material to create a solid core surrounded by an outer layer.

摘要:
Apparatus and process for removing unwanted foreign material from particulate material. The apparatus and process find particular application in the pulp and paper industry to remove contaminating plastic material from wood chips. The apparatus includes a transporting conveyor for moving the particulate material between a inlet area and an outlet area and a vibrating motor for vibrating the conveyor to sort the particulate material and the foreign material. Heated rollers heated to a temperature sufficient to render the foreign material tacky are applied to the sorted material and cause the foreign material to adhere thereto such that the foreign material is extracted from the particulate material which is delivered to the outlet area.
摘要:
A method of producing molded articles comprising taking a by-product from a main process, that by-product comprising a contaminated thermoplastic material impregnated with a fibrous material, usually paper and in some instances additionally a metallic foil, removing a portion of the fibrous material for re-use in the main process and thereafter heating and molding the remaining material to form an article. In instances where the thermoplastic material is not contaminated with a fibrous material, it may be considered desirable to introduce such material.
