1. LDPE film: widely used plastic material
LDPE (low-density polyethylene) film is a common plastic material. It is widely used in packaging, agriculture, construction and other fields because of its good flexibility, transparency, chemical corrosion resistance and processing performance. For example, plastic bags, cling film, agricultural mulch and other common plastic bags in our daily life are all LDPE film products.
However, with the increasing use of LDPE film, the disposal of its waste has also become an environmental problem that needs to be solved urgently. Traditional landfill and incineration treatment methods will not only cause waste of resources, but also pollute the environment. Therefore, it is of great significance to recycle and reuse LDPE film.
2. Why squeeze LDPE film?
The first step in recycling LDPE film is to wash and squeeze it. Washing is to remove dirt and impurities on the surface of the film, while squeezing is to remove the residual moisture during the washing process.
The main reasons for squeezing LDPE film are as follows:
* Improve recycling efficiency: Water will increase the weight and volume of LDPE film, affecting the subsequent transportation and processing efficiency. Squeezing can effectively reduce the moisture content and improve the recycling efficiency.
* Ensure product quality: Moisture will affect the recycled quality of LDPE film, resulting in a decrease in product performance. Squeezing can ensure the stability of the quality of recycled LDPE film.
* Reduce energy consumption: Moisture will consume a lot of energy in the subsequent melt granulation process. Squeezing can reduce moisture content and reduce energy consumption.
III. LDPE film squeezer: a tool for efficient recycling
LDPE film squeezer is a device specially used for squeezing LDPE film, which mainly consists of the following parts:
* Belt conveyor: used to evenly convey the cleaned LDPE film to the squeezer.
* Single screw conveying extrusion device: This is the core component of the squeezer, consisting of a screw and a screen. The screw rotates to convey and squeeze the LDPE film forward, the moisture is discharged through the screen, and the squeezed film is discharged from the discharge port.
* Intelligent control system: used to control the operating parameters of the squeezer, such as screw speed, extrusion force, etc., to ensure that the squeezing effect is stable and reliable.
* Air conveying silo: used to store the squeezed LDPE film blocks for subsequent transportation and processing.
IV. Final product: squeezed LDPE film blocks
After being processed by the LDPE film squeezer, the final product is squeezed LDPE film blocks. These film blocks have the following characteristics:
* Low moisture content: The moisture content is usually controlled below 5%, which meets the requirements of subsequent processing.
* High density: After extrusion, the density of the LDPE film blocks is significantly improved, which is convenient for transportation and storage.
* Regular shape: The film blocks have regular shapes and uniform sizes, which are convenient for subsequent crushing and granulation.
V. Summary
LDPE film squeezer is an indispensable key equipment in the recycling and reuse of LDPE film. It can efficiently remove moisture from LDPE film, improve recycling efficiency, ensure product quality, reduce energy consumption, and make important contributions to the recycling of LDPE film. With the continuous enhancement of environmental awareness and the continuous advancement of technology, LDPE film squeezer will play an increasingly important role in the field of plastic recycling.
