Czech Gateway to the PET bottles
Recycling |
|
An equipment manufacturing and
engineering company, National Recovery Technologies (NRT) provides
cutting edge sorting solutions to the plastics recycling industry,
esp. for PET bottles. Here presents one of them -
MultiSort® IR.
Overview
The
MultiSort® IR
advanced automated plastic bottle sorter is a high
performance system designed for 24/7 operation. Used in applications
worldwide, the system utilizes high speed industrial infrared sensing to
detect specific polymers within a mixed stream of material and
incorporates high precision air ejectors to accurately sort selected
polymers from the material stream at high processing rates.
The rugged industrialized computing and sensing systems feature high
reliability components and subsystems, built-in computerized diagnostics,
and an advanced easy-to-use graphically driven touch screen operator
interface. The system provides for modem connectivity with the factory for
fast factory technician response, adjustments, and upgrades
Application
The
MultiSort® IR
advanced automated plastic bottle sorting system is
designed to separate specific polymers from a mixed stream of material at
high throughput rates. Separations are independent of color and depend
only on polymer types. Typical applications are:
- Mixed bale sorting of HDPE, PET, PS, PP, and PVC bottles
- Removal of contaminant polymers such as PVC and PS from PET bottles,
and
- Recovery of PET bottles from a PVC eject stream produced by x-ray
based sorters such as the NRT
VinylCycle®
system during removal of PVC
from PET.
Technology
The
MultiSort® IR
sorting system uses proprietary infrared sensing
technology and highly accurate algorithms to rapidly detect unique
"signatures" of polymers from their infrared spectra. The identified
polymers are then precisely separated at high efficiency and low product
loss by NRT's proven mass sort system. The rugged industrialized computing
system features an advanced easy-to-use touch screen operator interface
and provides modem connection with the factory for fast response
diagnostics and adjustments.
Features
- High speed identification and selection of specific polymers
- Throughput rates exceeding 10000 lb/hr (4500 kg/hr)
- Proven mass-sort system with low product loss
- Low maintenance requirements
- Self-cleaning infrared sensing system
- Rugged steel plate construction, stainless steel available
- Easy-to-use graphic control panel (color touch screen)
- Factory diagnostics/adjustments via modem connection
- Development Sponsored by the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
