The invention relates to a method of preparing reclaimed rubber, especially using multi-stage screw extruders, which belongs to the field of recycling and reusing of waste rubber. The rubber powder and softener which were preliminarily mixed are compacted and added into first counter rotating twin screw extruder through thermal insulation and metering apparatus, the softener permeates the waste rubber powder uniformly under the action of temperature in the extruder to finish primary desulfurization of rubber waste powder; add preliminary devulcanized material continuously into second multi screw extruder after cooling by transformation device, rapid desulfurization and regeneration can be achieved by means of activator and shear action; The desulfurized rubber powder is cooled and transported into the third multi-screw extruder in series, the performance of deprocessing can be improved by shear action under low temperature; After extrusion, the recycled rubber is obtained by molding device and cooling device. The whole process is completed under closed oxygen isolation condition, realizing safe, simple and continuous desulfurization regeneration. It is energy saving and environmental protection with excellent properties.

Mixed-plastics polypropylene blend including mainly polypropylene being benzene free with defined CIELAB color.

A process for the segregation, sterilization, and purification of recycled plastic medical waste with the subsequent production of plastic products made therefrom is disclosed. Also disclosed is a method for the front-end segregation of recycled plastic medical waste into a polypropylene waste stream and a mixed plastic waste stream. These segregated streams are further purified through a processing method that removes contaminating fibrous, metal and other waste products. Polypropylene and mixed plastic streams isolated using these methods yield a homogenous material that can be blended with other materials for the production of raw plastic or for extrusion to form commercial plastic products. A method for tracking regulated and non-regulated medical waste stream production kinetics and chain of custody from discrete waste disposal sites is also disclosed.

The apparatus (1) includes a frictional heater (2), within which a rotor (3) is utilised, which includes a substantially cylindrical member (4) disposed about a central axis (5). The rotor (3) is rotatably mounted within the frictional heater (2) such that the axis of rotation is co-extensive with the central axis (5). The substantially cylindrical member (4) defines an outer periphery (6) configured, in use, to bear against plastic whilst rotating. To help address various issues that may otherwise arise during operation of the apparatus (1), the outer periphery has a diameter of between approximately 0.2 m and approximately 2.0 m inclusive.

The invention relates to a method and a processing plant (1) for plastic material, for the recycling thereof. To this end, the processing plant (1) comprises a feed device (4), a processing unit (2) having a comminuting device (5) and a conveying device (6) adjoining the comminuting device (5), and an extrusion device (3) having an extruder screw (21). During its conveying movement along a first conveying section (9) toward a transfer region (8) by means of the conveying device (6), the comminuted plastic material is heated to a transfer temperature with a mean temperature value, which falls into the range of the softening temperature of the plastic material. In the transfer region (8), the comminuted plastic material is transferred to the extrusion device (3).

Even in a case of a waste plastic whose use history is unknown, blending of an additive for recycling into a recycled plastic having a desired physical property can be estimated with high accuracy. A plastic recycling supporting apparatus 100 that supports plastic recycling in which a plastic is blended with an additive and is recycled into a recycled plastic having a desired physical property includes: a physical property and deterioration estimator 140 configured to estimate, using a physical property and deterioration estimation model, a physical property and a deterioration degree of the plastic based on a texture structural feature extracted from surface analysis data of the plastic; and a blending estimator 150 configured to estimate a physical property of the recycled plastic based on the physical property and the deterioration degree of the plastic and a blending condition of the additive using a physical property recovery model.

A system and method for processing an artificial turf, and a product produced by the method, is provided. The method includes providing an artificial turf having an infill, separating at least a portion of the infill from the artificial turf, downsizing the artificial turf into artificial turf fragments and rotationally mixing and translating, by a melt system, the artificial turf fragments at a pressure less than a maximum predefined pressure to form a melt. The maximum predefined pressure is between about 0.08-20 bar.

A method of recycling laminated fabrics and laminated fabric products and producing new laminated fabrics and laminated fabric products includes the steps of shredding scrap or used laminated fabric material, melt separating the polymers, pelletizing the melt separated polymers, extruding the pelletized material with at least one virgin material to form a film, and laminating the film to a nonwoven material to form a new laminated fabric. The scrap or recycled laminated fabric products can include plastic/polymer materials having different melting temperatures. The new laminated fabric can be utilized to produce new products, such as protective covers.
