A cyclone for plastic is a type of cyclone separator designed specifically for treating solid plastic particles in the recycling process. Its main purpose is to separate and recover plastic particles from other materials.
A cyclone for plastic consists of the following parts:
- Cylindrical body: This is the central part of the cyclone, usually a cylindrical shape, where solid plastic particles are separated from the flow of air or gas.
- Tangential inlet: The air contaminated with plastic particles flows into the cyclone through an inlet placed at a tangent on the top side of the cylinder. This tangential inlet causes the stream of air to adopt a high-speed spiral movement and flow downwards inside the cylinder.
- Clean air outlet: At the top of the cyclone is the outlet for the clean, purified air from which the plastic particles have been removed.
- Outlet for plastic particles: At the base of the cyclone there is a specific outlet for the solid plastic particles that have been separated from the air.
Features:
- Efficient separation: Cyclones for plastic efficiently separate solid plastic particles from the air flow, facilitating the recovery and recycling of plastic materials.
- Versatility: These cyclones can adapt to different types of plastic and size of particles, making them suitable for diverse recycling applications.
- Low maintenance: Due to their simple and robust design, they are easy to clean and require low maintenance.
- Adjustable size and capacity: Cyclones for plastic are available in different sizes and capacities to adapt to the specific requirements of each recycling plant.
