    摘要: A hydrolyzer outfeed system includes a hydrolyzer having a hydrolyzer outlet, an intermediate pressure chamber having a pressure chamber inlet and a pressure chamber outlet, and an expansion chamber. A pressure chamber inlet valve selectively communicates the hydrolyzer outlet with the pressure chamber inlet, the inlet valve having an inlet valve cross-sectional area in a fully open position. A pressure chamber outlet valve selectively communicates the pressure chamber outlet with the expansion chamber. The pressure chamber outlet valve has an outlet valve cross-sectional area in a fully open position. The outlet valve cross-sectional area is smaller than the inlet valve cross-sectional area.

    摘要: A method of separating constituent layers from a paper-plastic laminate material includes disposing a sheet of a paper-plastic laminate material on a first surface. The paper-plastic laminate material includes a paper layer on a first side and a plastic layer on a second side. The method also includes moving an abrasive second surface over the paper layer on the first side to contact the paper layer and separate portions of the paper layer from the plastic layer. The method further includes collecting the separated portions of the paper layer and providing the separated portions of the paper layer as input to a paper recycling process, and collecting the plastic layer and providing the plastic layer as input to a plastic recycling process. The method may help increase recycling rates of paper and plastic, reduce raw material harvesting, reduce pollution and habitat destruction, and improve the quality of recycled material.

    摘要: An irrecoverable-waste feeding and metering apparatus for feeding a waste separator, comprising:—a loading hopper having a mixing compartment and a discharge duct which extends between the mixing compartment and a discharge mouth thereof, for discharging material from the latter;—a central auger and two lateral augers; the central auger extending into the discharge duct and into the mixing compartment and the lateral augers are arranged inside the mixing compartment each on one side of the central auger;—a transfer device having a feed channel which has a loading portion and a feeding portion. The transfer device comprises two transfer augers extending from the loading portion along the feed channel and which each have a first helicoid. The first helicoid of a first transfer auger has a direction opposite to that of the first helicoid of the second transfer auger.

    摘要: A method of preparing an injection slurry for the sequestration of battery recycling waste includes contacting at least one battery recycling waste stream with an optional liquid, thereby forming a slurry, screening the slurry thereby forming a screened slurry, conditioning the screened slurry thereby forming a conditioned slurry, and determining whether a threshold injection criterion of the conditioned slurry has been met. The threshold injection criterion has been met, an injection slurry is thereby formed. A method of sequestering battery waste includes introducing an injection slurry including battery recycling waste into a subsurface structure at a depth of at least 500 m.

    摘要: An automated battery disassembly system according to one embodiment includes: a workstation including a first worktable, a second worktable, a third worktable, and a discharging worktable; a discharging device; a robot device; a transfer device; and a controller electrically connected to the robot device and the transfer device. The controller is configured to control the robot device to: when a battery pack is disposed on the first worktable, separate an upper cover from the battery pack; when the battery pack is disposed on the discharging worktable, discharge the battery pack by connecting the battery pack to the discharging device; when the discharged battery pack is disposed on the second worktable, separate a battery module from the discharged battery pack; and when the battery module is disposed on the third worktable, separate battery cells from the battery module.
