Recycling Process of Waste Polystyrene Foam

In the process of dealing with the polystyrene foam, machinery is usually used to make the density of recycled polystyrene closer to the new material.  And the most popular machine-GREENMAX is applied to cut up the waste, compact or melt the soft polystyrene foam, and then extruded to form a polystyrene foam block that is ready for granulation.

 

Recycling Process of Waste Polystyrene Foam
1. Put the waste polystyrene foam into the GREENMAX machinery that has a large feed opening for direct insertion with a rotating cutter, these foam will be broken into 60mmX60mm pieces by the crusher. After the impurities are removed, the crushed polystyrene foam fragments are blown into the circular silos by a machine screw.
2. Then, waste polystyrene foam block would gradually be melted in the extruder, with the rotation of the screw shear, the melted EPS would be discharged from the exhaust hole.
3. Next, the compacted or melted material is extruded from the die at a ratio of 1:50 or 1:90, which depends on what kind of machine you choose.
4. Finally, the recycled polystyrene blocks will be transported to the manufacturers to produce pellets for photo frames making.

The advantages of this process 
As a result of the extruder, crusher, and other equipment and the formation of production lines, it can continuously recycle the Polystyrene Foam

 

A fully automated GREENMAX polystyrene recycling machine, which can effectively reduce the cost of waste foam processing, make the quality of recycled material better, as well as reduce contamination to the plant is the best choice to protect the environment.
