The present invention relates to an apparatus (100) for extracting toner from a toner cartridge comprising an inlet opening (1), a first outlet opening (2) for discharging toner, and a second outlet opening (3) for discharging toner cartridges. The apparatus (100) also comprises: a toner cartridge opening device (10) configured to break a toner cartridge so that the toner may be removed from inside said toner cartridge; a separating device (20) connected to said opening device (10) for receiving broken toner cartridges from said opening device, and configured to separate toner from a respective toner cartridge broken by said opening device (10), said separating device (20) being further configured to separately convey the broken toner cartridge to said second outlet opening (3) and toner separated from said broken toner cartridge to said first outlet opening (2).

An embodiment provides a method for recycling tires, including: injecting, using a pump, a rubber material into a dissociating system, wherein the pump exerts a mechanical force upon the rubber material to reduce a size of the rubber material; within the dissociating system, creating a rubber material mixture, by: injecting a supercritical fluid to be mixed with the rubber material; heating, using a heat source, the rubber material mixture; and atomizing the rubber material mixture; and sending the resulting atomized rubber material mixture to a separating system to separate the rubber material mixture into different components. Other aspects are described and claimed.

An installation (1) and method for treating composite products (2) based on thermoplastic material(s) for recycling purposes, the installation at least comprising means (3, 4, 4′, 5, 6) for heating, for reducing size, for crushing and for separating, said means being arranged to form at least one line (1′) for treating and extracting material(s) to be reused, operating as a continuous or intermittent flow, and regulated if necessary. The installation (1) is characterised in that the means (3) for heating and reducing size comprise at least one heated screw mixer, the crushing means comprise at least one roll crusher (4, 4′) comprising two rolling rollers (7 and 7′) that are heated and set into rotation in opposite directions, the separating means (5, 6) comprise at least one macroscopic separating means (5) in the form of a device for discharging macroscopic polluting particles present in the output (3′), and the separating

A grilling accessory for moving a cooking surface vertically up and down with respect to a heat source may include a rack holder subassembly designed to be positioned proximate to a heat source, a grilling rack subassembly designed to support food items and engage with the rack holder subassembly, and, optionally, a dish subassembly designed to accommodate the heat source. The rack holder subassembly may include a base frame; at least two arms extending from the base frame; and a plurality of grill rack supports extending from each of the at least two arms. The grilling rack subassembly may include a grill grate with grilling bars; and a pair of hangers extending from the grill grate, the pair of hangers designed to engage with the plurality of grill rack supports.

The invention relates to a method for extruding recyclate, wherein the recyclate contains light materials and/or fibres and wherein the recyclate is first comminuted and compacted and, in a subsequent method step, is fed into an extruder (2). According to the invention, the recyclate is agglomerated in a press agglomerator and in the process is heated, and is divided into pellets, and, when still in the warm state, is fed into the extruder (2) with the material still having an inherent residual temperature of at least 50 C. from the agglomeration. The invention also relates to an arrangement (1) comprising an extruder (2) which has an inlet for the material to be extruded, and a press agglomerator which has an inlet opening (6) for recyclate to be agglomerated and an outlet for the pellets produced, wherein the press agglomerator is arranged upstream of the extruder (2) such that the inlet of the extruder (2) is connected to the outlet of the press agglomerator.
