Waste Plastic Recycling Machine for HDPE and PP bottles

Why should we recycle HDPE and PP bottles, containers and thermoplastics?

As well as the recycling of PET post-consumer bottles, the recycling of HDPE PEand PP bottles, containers 

and thermoplastics is becoming increasingly interesting and represents another important area of ​​the 

plastic recycling market.

Awide variety of end products for different applications can be produced, which enable recycling companies 

to achieve high financial returns on investments.

 Can waste plastic HDPE PP be recycled easily?

Similar to PET waste, the quality and condition of collected HDPE and PP waste varies not only from country 

to country but also within a country. In many cases the quality of the material collected is very low. 

It is necessary to constantly update HDPE-PP recycling technologies and provide technical solutions, 

to properly process the most difficult and contaminated materials while achieving the best end quality.

Our REGULUS's world wide experience in the recycling field is a guarantee of theirability to provide their

customers with tailor-made and precise technical solutions using state-of-the-art recycling technologies. 

We are prepared to react correctly at any moment to the constantly changing requirements and conditions

of our customers and the market.

REGULUS can offer turnkey solutions and put together a complete range of engineering services for our customers, 

including for example waste water treatment.

How HDPE PP Is Recycled?

High-density polyethylene (HDPE) is a plastic that has a wide range of uses, 

including bottles, bins, shopping bags, pipes, and more.

Polypropylene(PP) is a plastic that has a wide range of uses, including Injection molding products, 

various containers, packaging materials, furniture, films and fishing nets for agriculture, fishery and food industry.

To attain an understanding of how HDPE PP is recycled, you can read this outlineof the general process 

that HDPE undergoes as it gains a second life.

Sorting

When recycling companies receive used plastic items, they must first separate them based on how thick they are, 

as this changes the kinds of machines that can work with it.

Crushing Cleaning and Drying

After these initial stages, the plastic may undergo crushing cleaning and drying process.

Given its many years of experience in the field of HDPE PP recycling, 

Our REGULUS can rely on the most efficient recycling technology and on its recognized know-how to ensure

the production of the best quality HDPE PP flakes.

Mos tof the worst contaminants are removed at an early stage of HDPE recycling plants. 

Thanks to the precise and efficient pre-washing and washing systems developed by REGULUS, 

the HDPE PP flakes leaving HDPE PP recycling plants arealmost comparable to the virgin HDPE PP resin.

Granulation

With the HDPE PP properly removed from other plastics and debris, it then undergoesgranulation. 

Here, machines shred the HDPE or PP and melt it down before reforming it into uniform granules. 

These pellets are the basic building blocksof recycled products.

Introduction to Washing System Design

a. Size Reduction Process

Inthis Size Reduction Process, Large materials are processed into small pieces.

The Size Reduction Process improves the washing result and makes the finalproduct easy to be packed.

b. Washing cleaning process

This process combines high speed friction washing, floatingwashing tank, hot washing, low-speed friction washer, 

spraying washer,and some other washing equipments.

c.Drying process

One of the last stages of the washing process is to dry the materials to aprocessing-capable 

residual moisture content, which can be between 0.5 and 10%.
