Plastic Deodorization
We remove unwanted odors in recycled plastic materials using only steam.
A specific problem with recycled plastics is their bad smell, often due to residues of previous products absorbed into their polymeric structure. A common example is the smell of detergents in recycled HDPE, mostly coming from personal hygiene product bottles.
Furthermore, if the plastics have been in contact with decomposing organic material, particularly when not properly separated in recycling bins, the unpleasant odors get trapped in the plastic, becoming so intense that many of these plastics end up being incinerated.
Conventional washing methods used in recycling only remove surface dirt and not the absorbed compounds. Although the odor may seem reduced immediately after washing, over time the odorous compounds can re-emerge.
To address this problem, Fych Technologies has developed a new process that effectively removes all the odor-causing molecules absorbed in the plastic, potentially revolutionizing the plastic recycling process.
The plastic deodorization process implemented by Fych Technologies is based on the principle of internal diffusion of odorous substances.
This phenomenon occurs due to the high temperature during treatment and the lowering of the boiling point of the odorous compounds, which do not mix with water, thus favoring their evaporation from the polymer surface into the air.
This method is more effective than other stripping methods such as hot air extraction.
IT INVOLVES A MECHANICAL PROCESS THAT DOES NOT USE ANY TYPE OF CHEMICAL, IT ONLY RELIES ON THE USE OF WATER VAPOR TO EXTRACT THE SUBSTANCES CAUSING ODORS.
A system fully compatible with the mechanical recycling of plastics.
It is incorporated at the end of the mechanical recycling process, just after the extrusion stage. The recycled granules are introduced into an additional module where the deodorization takes place, resulting in a material that is odor-free and suitable for the manufacturing of non-food packaging and other plastic products that require being odorless.
The implementation of this process to improve the quality of recycled plastics is aimed both at recyclers, allowing them to expand the market for their materials, and at manufacturers of plastic products who seek to ensure a quality standard in their raw materials.
