Our engineering department is always engaged in the research, study and design of innovative washing and recovery solutions for all types of waste. In fact, we are proud to be the only company in the world to have designed and implemented a new technology for washing and recycling post-consumer and abandoned fishing nets in the seas and oceans.
INNOVATIVE WASHING
Every stage, from conception, design, production and assembly, is managed in-house by our highly qualified staff with the aim of optimizing productivity, reducing waste and ensuring a high degree of energy efficiency and water sustainability.
Washing plants are divided into several stages, depending on the characteristics of the input material. In general, the fish net recycling 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 excellent grinding 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 washing and greater energy efficiency and lower water consumption.
Our innovative hot washing system self-generates heat and does not require heating systems for water and steam generation, with associated electrical costs and maintenance problems. It is, moreover, capable of removing all kinds of impurities and printing inks, which is essential for obtaining the highest quality granule.
Unlike conventional plants, an additional feature of which we are deeply proud is our ability to achieve an odor-free ground and/or final granule without the need for additional chemical additives to eliminate 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 1 percent. In this way, we are able to minimize subsequent energy and operational costs during the granulation phrase.
Due to the very low moisture content, we are able to perform excellent homogenization and granulation through single-screw or twin-screw systems up to 4 degassings.
From the waste, we can provide a suitable granule to make various high-quality finished products. We have unique technologies that allow us to make endless transformations with any kind of waste.
