Pelletizing in PET Bottle Recycling

A method for producing plastic granules suitable for producing extrusion blow molded hollow bodies of recycled PET with high impact toughness and high gloss, and an extrusion process to achieve it. The method involves adjusting the intrinsic viscosity and molecular structure of recycled PET (rPET) to match virgin PET (vPET) in drop test performance and glossiness. The rPET particles are prepared by crystallization in hot air or infrared heat to control branching and molecular structure. The adjusted rPET properties allow comparable drop heights and gloss in blow molded bottles compared to vPET. This allows recycled bottles with similar performance to virgin ones, which is important for sustainability and recyclability.

Continuous and efficient plastic pelletizing equipment to recycle waste plastics without needing secondary screening. The equipment has a pelletization chamber with a feed guide, cutting knives, and a screening assembly. Waste plastics are fed into the chamber and cut into pellets. The screening assembly moves left and right to separate pellets by size. Qualified pellets fall into a collection box while unqualified ones stay in the screening assembly. After pelletizing, the baffle assembly rotates to separate and discharge the qualified pellets. Any remaining unqualified pellets are discharged from the side and fed back in for further cutting.

A plastic raw material conversion method to manufacture recycled pellets from waste plastic. The method involves melting, extruding, cooling, and cutting the waste plastic to form pellets. The extruded plastic is cooled in a bath, then cut into pellet size. This produces high quality recycled pellets with improved properties compared to direct reuse of waste plastic. The process also involves filtering toxic gases during melting/extrusion, replacing hot cooling water, and separating stuck plastic from hoppers.

Waste plastic flake crushing and sorting system for recycled pellets production that reduces defects and increases economic feasibility. The system crushes waste plastic flakes into smaller flakes, then visually inspects and sorts them to separate out defective flakes. The good flakes are used for high-color products, while the defective flakes are used for black products. This prevents black spots, foreign substances, and color issues in the recycled pellets. The system heats the flakes before crushing to prevent dust. The sorting steps of flipping and double-sided inspection ensure thorough sorting.

Recycling unsorted plastic waste into useful material like pellets. The recycling machine has a housing, crusher, extrusion system, and pelletizer inside. The machine accepts unsorted plastic waste through the housing inlet. The crusher converts it into smaller pieces. The extrusion system further processes the crushed plastic into compounded material. The pelletizer then shapes the compounded plastic into pellets. The pellets are exited through the housing outlet. This allows recycling of unsorted plastic waste into usable pellets without sorting.

Pelletizer for producing modified plastics that is environmentally friendly and recycles waste. The pelletizer has features to capture and recycle debris generated during the pelletizing process. A waste pipe collects debris falling from the pelletizer surface. A recovery device inside the waste pipe has slides, blocks, and a collection box to guide debris into the box. A fan circulates air to filter out debris. This prevents small particles from escaping and contaminating the final pellets. The debris collection improves pellet quality and reduces environmental impact.

Waste plastic recycling pelletizing device that reduces damage to cutting blades when pelletizing recycled plastic. The device has a base, chassis, crusher, cooling tank, heating chamber, pusher, closing device, scrap slide, cutting assembly, lifting device, and fan. The waste plastic is crushed, heated, pushed into a chamber, closed, melted, pushed out, cut, cooled, and pelletized. This sequence avoids cutting the hot, solidified plastic and prevents blade damage. The lifting device removes moisture before pelletizing.

Apparatus for making recycled plastic pellets with improved quality. The process involves sorting, pulverizing, stirring, extruding, cooling, and cutting waste plastic to form pellets. The stirring step with a moving pipe agitator helps mix and homogenize the pulverized waste plastic before extrusion. This improves pellet quality compared to directly extruding the pulverized plastic. The stirring also allows loading the extruder with agitated plastic instead of static powder, further aiding mixing.
