Plastic treatment and recycling
For the processing of plastics and composite materials, mills for coarse and fine grinding, various classification and sorting processes are available for the processing of used parts and production waste. Wet or dry mechanical processes can be used to separate mixtures. To enable a material to be recycled, the materials are first shredded. On the one hand, the grinding process is intended to break down individual material mixtures, and on the other hand, the properties of the ground material are to be optimized with regard to surface, grain geometry, grain size and thus, for example, reactivity, convey ability and further processing. Further material separation is related to the material properties of the materials and decides whether wet or dry mechanical processes are used.
