Post-consumer Recycling

This guide explains the essential requirements for successfully granulating rigid HDPE flakes and regrind. It details why a high-torque granulator is necessary to process tough materials and why a wear-resistant screw made of 38CrMoAl steel is critical for durability against abrasive flakes. The article provides a clear process overview and connects specific machine specifications (like motor power and screw diameter) to different production scales, from a 300kg/h HDPE pelletizer to a 420kg/h industrial model, to help businesses maximize their HDPE recycling profitability.

This guide provides solutions to the three main challenges of PP/PE film recycling: (1) inconsistent feeding, solved by a compactor feeder; (2) impurities from inks and moisture, solved by a two-stage degassing extruder; and (3) production downtime, solved by a non-stop hydraulic screen changer. It positions a purpose-built PE film pelletizing machine with these features as the essential equipment for turning difficult film scrap into a high-profit product.

Post-consumer plastic recycling refers to waste plastics generated after circulation, consumption, and use. The article will highlight the process of post-consumer plastic recycling and the advantages of it.
