VB-IPS recycling unit

VB-IPS (Infrared Purification System) is a recycling unit based on the waste decontamination in solid state using a combination of infrared and vacuum

Process is ideal for the treatment of waste in the shape of ﬂakes or granule.
Granules/ﬂakes are pneumatically loaded in the infrared unit, where they are efficiently heated using infrared, while the granules/ﬂakes are mixed with a special recirculation system
Combination of temperature and vacuum allows the decontamination of the granules/ﬂakes from all volatiles without degradation of the product.
Homogenization of the product by special recirculation system
If required, the system can increase the waste viscosity compensating its viscosity loss by introducing the adequate combination of temperature, vacuum and time,
After the decontamination treatment, the granules/ﬂakes are feeding a single screw extruder, where the polymer is melted and pushed into the mechanical continuous filtration. Once filtered the melt enters in the pelletizing unit, model to be selected according to the type of material.
