Detailed Project Report on Plastic Waste Recycling Unit

PLASTIC WASTE RECYCLING UNIT

[EIRI/EIRI/1458] (J.C.294,238)

INTRODUCTION

A plastic is any one of a large and varied group of materials which consists of an essential ingredient combinations of carbon with oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen and other organic and inorganic elements. While solid in the finished state, at some stage in its manufacture it has been or can be formed into various shapes by flow-usually through the application singly or together of heat and pressure.

Plastic Classification:

Plastics are classified in several ways. The most accepted division that covers the entire field is by the behavior pattern.

(1) Thermoplastic

(2) Thermosetting plastics

In this report we are only concerned with Thermoplastics.

Thermoplastics are those which soften under heat and again harden when cooled and this process can be repeated a number of times without any appreciable was in the physical properties.

Plastics today have a prominent place in the spectrum of materials frequently used by materials engineers and designers. They have earned this placed on the basis of performance at a price, plus the apparently unlimited ability of the  plastics industry to develop new plastics or new grades of older plastics to meet specific needs of modern industry. With this status and the tremendous growth of new uses has come an important need for meaningful data on fundamental plastics behaviour under realistic stresses and strains, couched in engineering terms, in short, engineering properties as contrasted with data sheet properties.  Needed are engineering criteria for rigidity, strength, endurance and temperature range, which are common to nearly all plastic applications, as well as more   specialized performance characteristics that are important only in certain types of special product (eg. electrical properties).

Among the plastics the various industrial grade plastic waste available, the following are the materials like A.B.S. (Acrylonitrite Butadiene) styrones,   polypropylene, HIPS, L.D.P.E., L.I.D.P.E. Polystyrene, Opp. OPS, and Acrylic. In this report we have considered Ten Industrial grade plastic waste material and for that plastic granules will be prepared.
