Abstract

A treating system for selecting and recovering reusable materials from used composite plastics is constituted by a crushing process, a cleaning and grading process and a plastics separation process. The treating system for the composite plastics is constituted by combining the cleaning and grading process in which a mechanical impact force and a friction force are applied to the plastic crushed pieces so as to clean the plastics and form the gain size of the plastics, and the plastics separation process with using a hydrocyclone. Accordingly, a selecting accuracy of the selected and recovered plastics is significantly improved and the plastics are separated to high-purity plastics, whereby it is possible to utilize the recovered plastics as recycled materials.
