Is Recycling Waste Expanded Polystyrene Foam

Polystyrene foam recycling, commonly used mechanical recycling method to hot melt waste polystyrene foam firstly and heated to reduce the size and brittle, and then broke them into smaller pieces in the crusher, then extrusion and granulation.



For polystyrene foam sheets, they are designed directly into the GREENMAX recycling machine, the feed opening of EPS compactor is usually large, so that the large styrofoam can be directly thrown into. The polystyrene equipped with rotating cutting knife, can compress and shred polystyrene foam plate at certain density.

Recycling process of waste polystyrene foam fish boxes recycling process

GREENMAX recycling process is as follows: first to put waste polystyrene foam into the inner of crushing machine, broken into pieces 60mmX60mm by pipeline to further remove impurities within the separator.

Waste polystyrene foam block is heated gradually melted in an extruder. And then granulated and cooled to obtain good quality of recycled polystyrene pellets.

The advantages of this process are:

As a result of an extruder, granulating machine and other equipment and form production line, it can work continuously recycled;

As a result of GREENMAX polystyrene recycling machine, it can effectively remove foreign matter, and make quality of recycled materials is good, the density of recycled materials in the extruder is close to the new material;

The ability to deal with at the venue in time to reduce the chance of contamination, fully enclosed automation system reduces the pollution of the plant and the environment.

Waste polystyrene foam recycling process

GREENMAX developed a small-shaped recovery equipment. The recycling steps are as follows: the hopper lid is opened, the block of foam polystyrene waste input into the coarse shredder, EPS foam was crushed into 30-50mm sized blocks.
EPS RECYCLING

Recovery boiler melt recycling process

GREENMAX company developed EPS melting machine in recycling waste plastics, mainly for the recycling of those huge volume of loose and light waste plastics such as EPS, EPE, XPS, EPP and so on, which can effectively compress the volume of waste styrofoam, increasing the density to facilitate transport and concentrate recycling. After processing the molten plastic, the density of EPS blocks is high and may be further processed or crushed into pellets for use as needed.
