With the enhancement of environmental awareness, the recycling and reuse of plastic bottles has become an indispensable environmental behavior. PET bottle recycle plant plays a key role in this process, and its equipment and functions directly affect the efficiency and quality of plastic bottle recycling. This article will provide an in-depth introduction to the functions that a PET bottle recycling plant should have and the key equipment that make up the entire plant.
De-labeling stage
De-labeling is the first step in the plastic bottle recycling process, which involves separating plastic bottles from other waste. The de-labeling process in PET bottle recycle plant is usually carried out using plastic de-labeling machines with automated sorting systems, which can recognize PET bottles and separate them from mixed waste through sensors and machine learning. The efficiency of this stage directly affects the subsequent recycling.
Crushing stage
After the delabeling stage, PET bottles still retain their original shape and volume and therefore need to be crushed for subsequent processing. A plastic crusher is an essential piece of equipment that can efficiently pulverize PET bottles into small particles. This helps to increase the efficiency of the subsequent processing steps and provides easier conditions for the next washing step.
Washing stage
Cleaning is the key to ensuring the quality of recycled plastics. The crushed plastic particles may have dirt, grease and other impurities attached to them, so they need to be thoroughly cleaned. Cleaning equipment in PET bottle recycle plant usually includes washing equipment such as hot washing tanks and plastic friction washers. This stage not only helps to improve the quality of the recycled plastics but also reduces wear and tear on subsequent equipment and extends equipment life.
Drying stage
The cleaned PET flakes need to be dried to ensure that their moisture content meets the recycling requirements. The plastic drying machine usually adopts a hot air circulation system to quickly evaporate the water remaining in the plastic granules. Proper drying not only helps to improve the quality of the recycled plastic but also reduces energy consumption in the subsequent molding process.
