We expertly study and design our film washing lines to optimize productivity, reduce waste and ensure a high degree of energy efficiency and water sustainability. Your request will be our starting point because we customize our lines according to the specific needs of each individual customer to realize the perfect solution.
Innovative washing
The configuration of a FILM washing line can be very different depending on the type of material to be recovered. What sets us apart is our ability to design and build custom lines.
FILM washing plants are divided into several stages, depending on the characteristics of the input material. In general, the plants designed by Recy Technologies are divided into several main stages:
Selection and grinding
This stage is designed and carried out with special care as it is essential to carry out careful selection, either manual or automatic, and good grinding and to ensure optimum operation of the entire line and excellent final product quality.
This processing cycle consists of robust and easy-to-maintain machines capable of processing difficult materials with high contamination rates, and the composition of the machinery depends on the type of input material.
Prewashing and washing
Our systems are customized and can include water or dry prewashing and cold or hot washing, depending on the type and quality of the material. In this way, we are able to ensure excellent separation and washing of the material, while ensuring greater energy efficiency and minimizing water consumption.
Unlike conventional systems that wash cold, our innovative washing system washes hot. An additional strength is that Recy Technologies' washing system self-generates heat and does not require heating systems for water and steam generation, with associated electrical costs and maintenance issues. It is, moreover, capable of removing all kinds of impurities and printing inks, which is essential for obtaining a top-quality granule. Unlike conventional plants, an additional feature we are deeply proud of is our ability to obtain an odor-free ground and/or final granule without the need for additional chemical additives to remove odor.
Drying and granulation
The machinery present at this stage of processing is designed with extreme care in order to remove most of the water content left in the product, reaching a moisture content of less than 2 percent. In this way, we are able to minimize subsequent energy and operational costs during the granulation phrase.
Thanks to the very low moisture content, we are also able to perform excellent homogenization and granulation through single- or twin-screw systems that can achieve up to 4 degassings.
From the waste, we can provide you with a suitable granule to make different finished products. We have unique technologies that allow us to make endless transformations with any kind of waste.
