Continuous Operation Aluminum Plastic Sorting Machine for Waste Material Recovery

This integrated system is designed to efficiently recover aluminum from laminated films, packaging materials (e.g., Tetra Pak, food pouches), and composite waste. It transforms complex aluminum-plastic composites into reusable aluminum granules and plastics, supporting circular economy goals.

1. Charring & Shredding

• Continuous carbonization equipment, oxidative carbonization of plastics by high temperature.

• Ensures uniform sizing for downstream separation.

• shredder pre-crushes bulk materials into 10-50 mm flakes.

• Mill grinding to 0.1mm

2. Sorting & Separation

• Electrostatic separator: Uses high-voltage charges to split aluminum from plastics.

• Separation efficiency: Up to 99% purity for aluminum output.

3. Dedusting systems & flue gas cleaning systems

• Flue gas purification system ensures emission compliance (option )

• Dedusting system ensures environmentally friendly use

• Drum carbonizator: Evenly heated by radiant heat, flexible heat source, fuel gas electric heating are available .

• Shredder: Heavy-duty blades for laminated film pre-processing.

• Electrostatic Separator: Core component for aluminum-plastic separation.

• Dust Cleaning System (Optional): Pyrolysis unit to decompose organic residues.

• PLC Control Panel: Automates workflows and monitors real-time data.

• Input Materials: Aluminum-plastic films, aseptic packaging, pharmaceutical blisters,Aluminum-containing bags.

• Capacity: 350-2,000 kg/h (customizable).

• Aluminum Recovery Rate: ≥95%.

• Power Consumption: 50-150 kW·h/ton (varies with material complexity).

• Packaging Waste: Recycles food/drink cartons, snack bags, and industrial laminates.

• Pharmaceuticals: Processes aluminum-blister foils.

• Flexible Packaging: Recovers aluminum from pouches and wrappers.

• High Purity Output: Aluminum granules meet smelting standards (ASTM B927/B927M).

• Zero Pollution: Closed-loop water circulation and gas treatment systems.

• Cost-Effective: Reduces raw material costs for aluminum smelters and plastic manufacturers.

• Diverts 90%+ of composite waste from landfills.

• Lowers carbon footprint by replacing virgin aluminum production (saves 95% energy vs. mining).
