The pelletizing facility (100) according to the present invention allows the manufacture of solid recovered fuel pellets from municipal solid waste without separating parts of the municipal solid waste before starting the pelletizing process. Thus, a higher amount of the municipal solid waste can actually be used to manufacture solid recovered fuel pellets. The pelletizing facility (100) as well as the method according to the invention can be used in particular to manufacture solid recovered fuel pellets that can be used in the production of hydrogen and/or carbon dioxide enriched syngas by a torrefaction of the solid recovered fuel pellets with a subsequent gas treatment.

Embodiments relate to the technical field of waste collection, in particular to waste collection equipment, which includes a temporary storage tank, a pressing tank and a pressing mechanism; the temporary storage tank is configured for receiving and temporarily storing wastes produced by die cutting equipment; the pressing tank is configured for carrying the wastes in the temporary storage tank; the pressing mechanism is configured for compressing the wastes in the pressing tank; the temporary storage tank is provided with a first blanking port, which is configured for communicating the temporary storage tank with the pressing tank; the first blanking port is provided with a first valve; and the first valve is configured for opening or closing the first blanking port to control whether the temporary storage tank discharges the wastes.

The present invention relates to an organic waste treatment apparatus consisting of a garbage receiving unit, a probing door, a garbage compactor unit, a crushing unit fixed to the upper part of the structure frame, a mixing unit positioned underneath the crushing unit, a motor that drives all movements of the apparatus using belt drive and gear drive, and a control panel controlling the functions of this device.

A device for recycling a plastic container includes a housing with an opening to receive the plastic container. A moving part is movably arranged within the housing on which, in a first position of the moving part, the plastic container is placed such that a first portion of the plastic container is arranged inside the housing and a second portion of the plastic container is arranged outside the housing. An ultraviolet (UV) light device including a UV light emitter and a UV light detector is arranged in proximity to the opening and configured such that a UV light beam emitted by the UV light emitter radiates through the plastic container which is detected by the UV light detector. A controller is in communication with the UV light device and the moving part. The moving part is configured to move to a second position in which the plastic container is entirely placed inside the housing in response to a control signal from the controller indicating that the plastic container can be recycled. A first cutter is rotatably arranged in the housing and configured to separate an upper portion of the plastic container from an intermediate portion of the plastic container. A second cutter is rotatably arranged in the housing and configured to separate a lower portion of the plastic container from the intermediate portion of the plastic container. A third cutter is rotatably arranged in the housing and configured to cut the intermediate portion of the plastic container in an axial direction such that the intermediate portion, when it is rolled out to a flat form, has a rectangular shape. A mold unit has a first press mold part and a second press mold part. A robot unit is configured to roll out the intermediate portion of the plastic container, to move the intermediate portion of the plastic container to the mold unit, and to place the intermediate portion of the plastic container between the first press mold part and the second press mold part.

A hydrolyzer infeed system for supplying waste material to a hydrolyzer in a continuous manner, the infeed system comprises an infeed chamber, an inlet gate separate a chamber inlet from a chamber outlet, a ram disposed to reciprocate within the infeed chamber and compress waste material against the inlet gate when the gate is in the closed position and configured to push the compressed waste material past the inlet gate into a hydrolyzer when the gate is in an open position, an actuator operably coupled to the ram and configured to move the ram between retracted and extended positions. In one aspect, the ram extends past the inlet gate when in an extended position. In another aspect, an actuator position sensor operably coupled to the actuator generates a position signal representative of a position of the actuator and a corresponding position of the ram at all positions between the retracted ram position and the extended ram position.

Subject of the invention is a method for recycling a glass fiber product waste to obtain recycled glass fibers. By using the waste glass mat recycling method of the invention a complete separation of the glass fibers from the binder or any other bonded precipitations is achieved. The glass fibers regained by the method are undamaged glass fibers having preserved their original geometry and mechanical performance. Surprisingly the recycled glass fibers have a surface that is very smooth, plain and wave less. A further subject of the invention is glass fiber product comprising glass fibers and at least one binder is provided, wherein the glass fibers contain at least 2% by weight of recycled glass fibers and up to 98% by weight of new glass fibers.
