The specific embodiment

Embodiment 1

The spy opens the 2002-205306 communique and discloses and be separated into granular substance and non-particulate shape thing be carried out the mixed waste plastic that granulation handles in the melt pelletization device with the shape separator, the plastics separation method that granular substance is reclaimed as plastic containing chlorine not.The investigation result of carrying out according to the inventor is judged, only adopts the processing that is divided into granular substance and non-particulate shape thing, and the chlorinity of the not plastic containing chlorine that obtains is reduced fully.

This investigation is performed as follows.The film shape waste plastics that contains PVC is stirred, carrying out granulation utilizing the frictional heat that produces to make its softening also fusion in the device of the melt pelletization of granulation handles, its handled thing is carried out separating treatment with dry type proportion shape separator shown in Figure 6, obtain following 4 kinds of separators.

Left end is discharged from Fig. 6, is divided into the separator (heavy separator) of granular substance

Right-hand end is discharged from Fig. 6, is divided into the separator (light separator) of non-particulate shape thing

Mid portion is discharged from Fig. 6 powder and subparticle

The separator of being collected by dust catcher after dispersing

Then granular substance (heavy separator) screening, be divided into particle diameter big with little 2 classes.Use the sieve of mesh as 2.36mm.Measure the mass ratio of above-mentioned 5 kinds of separators then, analyzed the chlorinity of each separator simultaneously.Its result's of table 1 expression a example.

Table 1

Following as can be seen from Table 1 situation.

(1) chlorinity of powder is very high.

(2) even the granular substance that is separated into, according to its different chlorinity differences of size of particle, the granular substance that particle diameter is little, its chlorinity be obvious high value.

Think that the reason of above-mentioned (1) and (2) is as follows.

The plasticizer that in the PVC of plastic containing chlorine, contains a large amount of DOP (dioctyl phthalate) etc., and this plasticizer volatilizees easily.Therefore after the waste plastics heating that contains PVC, a part of plasticizer among the PVC volatilizees, and its PVC becomes the state that enbrittles.And during the PVC that becomes fragile stirs, be ground into powder and molecule in the melt pelletization device.

The PVC powder and the molecule of above-mentioned generation, wherein a part manufactures after attached to fusion in granulation is handled on the particle of not plastic containing chlorine of particle.Therefore as in the separated granular substance of plastic containing chlorine not, because that the granule that specific area is big adheres to the ratio of PVC powder and molecule is big more, so short grained chlorinity height., be not collected after in the processing that is separated into granular substance and non-particulate shape thing with the shape separator, dispersing attached to PVC powder and molecule on the plastic containing chlorine particle not.

Therefore if the granule that is contained in powder, the molecule in the granulation handled thing of discharging and was divided into granular substance from the melt pelletization device is removed in the past, the chlorinity of isolated not plastic containing chlorine compared with prior art will obviously reduce.

Embodiment 1 is the embodiment based on above-mentioned result of study, has following feature.

[1] mixed waste plastic separation method, be that a mixed waste plastic that contains plastic containing chlorine is separated into the plastic containing chlorine and the separation method of the waste plastics of plastic containing chlorine not, it is characterized in that, has the granulation treatment process, it carries out following processing: above-mentioned mixed waste plastic stirs, and makes it produce frictional heat, utilizes its frictional heat that above-mentioned mixed waste plastic is heated up, plastic containing chlorine is not melted the back granulation, and makes plastic containing chlorine be in the state of not fusion; With the screening operation that the handled thing of discharging from the granulation treatment process is divided into less than the handled thing and the handled thing more than the regulation particle diameter of regulation particle diameter.

[2] the mixed waste plastic separation method described in [1] is characterized in that, has the shape separating treatment operation that the handled thing more than the regulation particle diameter is separated into granular substance and non-particulate shape thing after the screening operation.

[3] the mixed waste plastic separation method described in [1] or [2] is characterized in that, plastic containing chlorine is polyvinyl chloride and/or Vingon.

[4] mixed waste plastic separator, be that a mixed waste plastic that contains plastic containing chlorine is separated into the plastic containing chlorine and the separator of the waste plastics of plastic containing chlorine not, it is characterized in that, have that the frictional heat that utilize to stir produces makes the softening and fusion of plastics and the device of the melt pelletization of granulation, sieve with a handled thing of from the granulation treatment process, discharging, isolate screening plant less than the handled thing of regulation particle diameter.

[5] the mixed waste plastic separator described in [4] is characterized in that, configuration is separated into the handled thing more than the regulation particle diameter of discharging from screening plant the shape separator of granular substance and non-particulate shape thing in the operation behind screening plant.

In embodiment 1, when the regulation particle diameter is meant the handled thing of the waste plastics of discharging from the granulation treatment process in screening, be used to obtain the mesh size of the sieve of the plastics of chlorinity below desired value.As mentioned above, because particle diameter is more little, chlorinity in the granular substance is high more, so the desired value that the sieve screen apertures size of the particle diameter lower limit that can utilize plastics again depends on chlorinity is reclaimed in decision, its decision will be considered the proterties of waste plastics to be processed and the operating condition of melt pelletization device etc., is that carry out on the basis with the actual effect in past.General use mesh is the sieve between 1～3mm in the screening operation.

In embodiment 1, sieve operation as the method for the separative efficiency that is used to improve plastic containing chlorine, but only carry out the separative efficiency that this operation can improve plastic containing chlorine separately under the situation about having, can improve separative efficiency when implementing with additive method combination under the situation about having.Sieve operation separately and still implement, depend primarily on the proterties of the PVC in the waste plastics to be processed with the additive method combination.

Just according to the inventor's result of the test, stirring waste plastics, when carrying out the granulation processing, if contain PVC, then generating powder and the molecule of PVC, this powder is different because of the proterties of PVC with the degree that molecule generates.At PVC is under the situation of film shape, and most of PVC is pulverized in the granulation, become powder and molecule, and PVC is under the situation of the thicker handled thing of bottle equal thickness, and what have not left behind by pulverizing.

Therefore under the situation of the PVC that contains thin thickness, because PVC mostly is powder and molecule and attached on the granule in the granular substance, thereby only the handled thing of discharging from the melt pelletization device is sieved, just can separate these plastic containing chlorines.

Be under the situation of thicker handled thing, in the handled thing of from the melt pelletization device, discharging, except the PVC of powder and molecule, also have and do not have pulverized PVC at PVC.And these do not have pulverized PVC because its size mostly is the size that can not distinguish with the bulky grain in the granular substance greatly, even, do not have the PVC that pulverizes to be assigned to a class identical with bulky grain so the handled thing of discharging from the melt pelletization device is sieved yet.Therefore in embodiment 1, at PVC is under the situation of thicker handled thing, after the handled thing of discharging from the melt pelletization device sieved, remove contain the powder and the granule in molecule and the granular substance of a lot of PVC after, carry out the proportion shape and separate and pneumatic separating.In this separating treatment, do not have pulverized PVC owing to be not manufactured into particle, be divided into light handled thing, separate with granular substance and be removed.

Fig. 1 is the key diagram of an example of the mixed waste plastic method for separating and processing of embodiment 1.This figure represents to handle the situation of the waste plastics of the plastic containing chlorine that contains thin thickness.The waste plastics 60 that contains plastic containing chlorine in Fig. 1 is fractured into the size of 10～50mm about square at broken process 10.Broken mixed waste plastic is sent to granulating working procedure 11.Use aftermentioned melt pelletization device shown in Figure 3 in granulating working procedure 11, mixed waste plastic is carried out high-speed stirred, make it produce frictional heat, become granular substance after utilizing this frictional heat to make fusing point than the low not plastic containing chlorine fusion of plastic containing chlorine, plastic containing chlorine remains on the processing of the state of not fusion.Mixed waste plastic after granulation is handled is that the sieve of given size sieves with mesh in screening operation 12.Utilize this screening operation be divided into the content of plastic containing chlorine high less than the granular substance 61 more than the low regulation particle diameter of regulation size particles part (comprising powder, molecule and short grained particulate fraction 62) and plastic containing chlorine content.

In the granular substance 61 more than utilizing the isolated regulation particle diameter of above-mentioned processing, owing to just sneak into plastic containing chlorines such as a small amount of PVC, so granular substance 61 can be used as the reducing agent of source of iron, be used in work again to the raw material of blast furnace blowing with to the purposes of the raw material of winding-ups such as cement kiln.

In the foregoing description 1～embodiment 4, the sieve of the granulation thing of discharging from the melt pelletization device with mesh 2.36mm sieved, be divided into sieve and go up the above handled thing of regulation particle diameter and sieve down less than the handled thing of regulation particle diameter, above-mentioned mesh 2.36mm is not the value of the lower limit particle diameter (regulation particle diameter) that obtains not plastic containing chlorine (allowing the plastics of residual chlorine content) that can recycling of regulation.The permissible value that just remains in the chlorine in the granular substance is the value that reclaims user's requirement of plastics, and is different and different according to purposes.

The relation of the rate of recovery of the granular substance of having studied the mesh of the sieve that uses and having obtained.At first handle carrying out granulation with the melt pelletization device of Fig. 3 with the waste plastics of embodiment 1 identical proterties.Change the operating condition of melt pelletization device this moment, obtains 2 kinds of different granulation things of size distribution.This granulation thing be the results are shown in table 3 with the size distribution that obtains after the JIS standard mesh screen screening.Then 2 kinds of granulation things are sieved with 3 kinds of different vibratory sieves of mesh respectively.It is the results are shown in table 4.

As shown in table 4, if reduce sieve screen apertures, can improve the rate of recovery of granular substance, be favourable economically, but the chlorinity of the granular substance that reclaims increase.If the increasing sieve screen apertures, the chlorinity of the granular substance of recovery reduces, but the reduction of the rate of recovery of granular substance is disadvantageous economically.Therefore in the operation of actual device, the mesh of sieve will be taken into account the value and the granular substance rate of recovery of the chlorinity of user's requirement of reclaiming plastics and determine.

Table 3

Table 4

(comparative example)

The waste plastics of fragmentation is carried out granulation handle, do not sieve, the proportion shape separator of packing into of the handled thing after this granulation is handled is separated into granular substance (heavy handled thing), non-particulate shape thing (light handled thing) and powder.The material recovery that granular substance (heavy handled thing) conduct that utilizes this separating treatment to obtain can utilize again.

The waste plastics of handling is the waste plastics that is used for the container of the identical proterties of situation of embodiment 1 and packing etc.In the processing that this external fragmentation-granulation-proportion shape is separated, use the device identical with the situation of embodiment 1, the treatment conditions also situation with embodiment 1 are identical.

Repeatedly carry out above-mentioned processing, the rate of recovery of the granular substance that mensuration can be utilized again and its chlorinity.The result of this mensuration is shown in table 2 with the result of embodiment.

Got following problem clear from the result shown in the table 2.Confirmed to utilize the chlorinity of the granular substance among the embodiment that the method that adds the screening operation carries out to compare with the value of comparative example, all significantly low, utilize to add the operation that the handled thing of discharging from granulating working procedure is sieved, the chlorinity of granular substance is reduced significantly.

In embodiment 4, the only waste plastics that granulation the is handled processing of sieving, identical with other the situation of embodiment, the granular substance chlorinity reduces.As described later, this is because carried out the processing of container classes such as separating bottle before broken waste plastics, has removed certain thickness plastic containing chlorine, and only the waste plastics to film shapes such as bag and packaging film classes carries out the granulation processing.Therefore do not contain under the situation that certain thickness plastic containing chlorine is arranged in processing, perhaps before fragmentation, carried out removing under the situation of the processing that certain thickness plastic containing chlorine is arranged, even the waste plastics after only granulation being handled sieves, the chlorinity of granular substance is reduced significantly.

Its reason is as follows.As mentioned above, if in waste plastics, contain PVC, this PVC is heated in granulation is handled, become the state that enbrittles, become powder and molecule after the fragmentation, and a part has certain thickness PVC not to be crushed to become powder and molecule and left behind, this PVC is when screening, become sieve and go up handled thing, be blended in the low granular substance of chlorinity.Owing in embodiment 4, carried out removing the processing that bottle waits certain thickness PVC, just the waste plastics to film shapes such as bag and packaging film classes carries out the granulation processing, PVC nearly all becomes powder and molecule, becomes down handled thing and separated of sieve during screening.

If adopt embodiment 2, can from mixed waste plastic, separate not plastic containing chlorine and plastic containing chlorine easily, accurately.Therefore can reduce significantly and be blended into as having removed from mixed waste plastic the processing slag of the residue of plastic containing chlorine not and the amount of the not plastic containing chlorine that goes out of use.Can carry out the not processing of plastic containing chlorine of large batch of recovery effectively in addition, can increase substantially simultaneously its rate of recovery, can reduce the amount of the not plastic containing chlorine that must dispose as 2 discarded objects significantly.

Embodiment 2 is separation methods of a kind of mixed waste plastic, it is characterized in that: from the mixed waste plastic that contains plastic containing chlorine, separating when reclaiming not plastic containing chlorine, after mixed waste plastic being heated to the temperature of regulation, make the plastic containing chlorine embrittlement and refinement, utilize by the plastic containing chlorine of refinement with the difference of the shape of plastic containing chlorine and the difference of granularity are not separated.Embodiment 2, to as the residue that produces in the separation circuit that from the mixed plastic that contains general plastic containing chlorine, separates plastic containing chlorine not, contain high concentration plastic containing chlorine mixed waste plastic and carry out effective especially, the mixed waste plastic that just preferably contains plastic containing chlorine utilizes the sorting unit of difference in specific gravity separating method, electrostatic separation method, near infrared ray etc. to handle for the first time, the residue of first processing is handled as 2 times carried out embodiment 2.Handle preferred its main portions that constitutes of utilizing the processing that adds thermal agitation and sieving processing for 2 times.Below the fact that constitutes such embodiment 2 is elaborated.

For example also carry out under the situation of first processing of mixed waste plastic with the difference in specific gravity separating method, be separated into high specific gravity part and low-gravity part, low-gravity part is reclaimed as plastic containing chlorine not, and then carry out 2 processing of ease of Use, from high specific gravity part, more effectively reclaim the not plastic containing chlorine of recovery section as residue.Just in 2 recovery carrying out the not recovery of recovery section, above-mentioned high specific gravity is partly heated stir process, the handled thing that this is added thermal agitation sieves processing, be divided into the above handled thing of given size and less than the handled thing of given size, the handled thing more than the given size is reclaimed as plastic containing chlorine not.2 stages by the recovery of plastic containing chlorine not being handled for the first time and time being handled like this, when in first the processing, adopting the lower method of the rate of recovery of plastic containing chlorine not, also can obtain the high rate of recovery as first processing and the integral body handled for 2 times.

Like this, in embodiment 2, can with easy device again from the processing residue that also can be called 2 discarded objects of discharging, reclaim not plastic containing chlorine by difference in specific gravity separating method, electrostatic separation method, with the processing of near infrared discriminance etc.Adopting 2 times of this easy device recyclings (heating stir process and screening are handled) is that understanding with following test serves as that the basis is formed.

This test is performed as follows.The waste plastics of the film shape of sneaking into PVC is broken into size about 20mm, it is packed into carry out high-speed stirred behind the groove that is provided with mixer.Plastics in the groove rise because of the frictional heat temperature that stirring causes.The limit is cooled off the limit every now and then and is continued stirring, and this temperature is maintained at about about 150 ℃.This handled thing screening that adds thermal agitation, be divided into 5 granularity parts then, measure the chlorinity of each granularity part, obtain the result shown in the table 5.The granular size of record is represented the mesh size that sieves in the table 5.

Table 5

Particle size (mm)	Chlorinity (quality %)	Weight ratio (quality %)
Particle size (mm)	Chlorinity (quality %)	Weight ratio (quality %)	+5.6	0.7	9.0
5.6～2.8	0.7	39.8	+5.6	0.7	9.0
5.6～2.8	0.7	39.8	2.8～2.0	1.0	23.7
2.0～1.4	10.3	18.4	2.8～2.0	1.0	23.7
2.0～1.4	10.3	18.4	-1.4	15.2	9.1

More little according to table 5 particle size, the handled thing chlorinity that adds thermal agitation is high more, and particularly the molecule chlorinity is obvious high value.This represents granule part, and the ratio that PVC sneaks into is high more, and the reason that produces this phenomenon is thought that PVC has in adding thermal agitation and pulverized, and becomes the character of powder and molecule.Just owing to contain the plasticizer of the DOP etc. of a large amount of volatilizations easily in PVC, after the waste plastics heating of sneaking into PVC, a part of plasticizer volatilizees among the PVC, and this PVC sheet becomes the state that enbrittles.And during the PVC sheet that becomes fragile is stirred, become powder and molecule owing to pulverize, so particle size is more little, the content of PVC is many more, so chlorinity uprises.

As mentioned above, because the PVC in the heating stir process thing gathers partially in the little side of particle size, after waste plastics heating stir process, only sieve processing and also can easily remove PVC.This moment, so can use separating of indissociable PVC of difference in specific gravity sorting unit and PET, PET conduct not plastic containing chlorine was recovered because PET is not pulverized.

Therefore in embodiment 2, utilization is suitable as the difference in specific gravity sorting process and the electrostatic separation of mass disposal method and handles, can carry out the not first recovery of plastic containing chlorine (the first removal of plastic containing chlorine) effectively, from then on handle then and carry out 2 recovery in the residue.And 2 recyclings of this moment are very simply installed owing to having utilized heating stir process and screening to handle such carrying out, so can effectively handle as whole process.Adopt this 2 stage process, can carry out from waste plastics, reclaiming the not mass disposal of plastic containing chlorine effectively, can reduce simultaneously the amount of the not plastic containing chlorine that must dispose as 2 discarded objects significantly.

As mentioned above, it is very effective carrying out the not recovery of plastic containing chlorine in 2 stages of first processing and 2 processing, even certainly the present invention only is equivalent to the above-mentioned processing of handling for 2 times, also can from mixed plastic, separate the removal plastic containing chlorine, separate and reclaim not plastic containing chlorine.That is, the mixed waste plastic that contains plastic containing chlorine is heated to the temperature of regulation, makes the plastic containing chlorine embrittlement and refinement, separate this by the plastic containing chlorine of refinement and plastic containing chlorine not.Make the plastic containing chlorine embrittlement by being heated to set point of temperature, embrittlement does not take place in plastic containing chlorine on the other hand.Make embrittlement the plastic containing chlorine refinement, the preferred mixer with moving blade etc. of utilizing carries out stir process.Also the pulverizing process that utilizes disintegrating machine, pulverizer etc. can be set.If to heating stir process in the mixed waste plastic that contains plastic containing chlorine, refinement can be carried out in an operation owing to make its embrittlement behind the heating plastic containing chlorine, so the efficient height.Because heating is different, have not that low-melting (for example PE class) fusion becomes granular situation in the plastic containing chlorine, original shape situations such as (puffy etc.) before fusing point high (for example PP, PET class) keeps heating is arranged, but because in any case, even not plastic containing chlorine heating, even according to circumstances differently carry out also not refinement of stir process again, thereby can utilize that particle diameter is different to separate fine handled thing and non-fine handled thing, separate plastic containing chlorine and plastic containing chlorine not thus.Fine handled thing and non-fine handled thing can be easy to separate with sieve etc.

The set point of temperature of heating mixed waste plastic is the temperature that makes the plastic containing chlorine embrittlement, it must be the temperature that more than the temperature that makes the plastic containing chlorine embrittlement, less than plastic containing chlorine, begins fusion, at plastic containing chlorine mainly is under the situation of polyvinyl chloride and/or Vingon, is preferably set to 140～165 ℃.If be contained in the mixed waste plastic major part not plastic containing chlorine more than the temperature of melting degree, do not arrive the melt temperature heating of plastic containing chlorine, because major part not plastic containing chlorine becomes granular substance, so occur plastic containing chlorine after the refinement sometimes attached on the granular substance, or situation about being wrapped, this is undesirable.Heating and remaining under the situation that is contained in the temperature of partly plastic melting degree in the mixed waste plastic, wherein a part becomes granular substance, but its growing amount is not a large amount of words, the amount of sneaking into the plastic containing chlorine in the plastic containing chlorine not is limited to the degree of permission, therefore consider treatment effeciency, wish more than the softening temperature of PE, the degree to the softening temperature of PP, PET does not heat.

Fig. 8 is the key diagram of the embodiment 2-1 of mixed waste plastic method for separating and processing.In Fig. 8,60 expressions contain the mixed waste plastic of the plastic containing chlorine of collection, A represents that B represents that C represents treating apparatus No. 2 times with the processing residue of first treating apparatus A generation with difference in specific gravity separating method, electrostatic separation method, with the first treating apparatus of any method in the near infrared discriminance.

In processing, be divided into the plastics 106 of handling residue B and mainly comprising PVC plastics in addition with first treating apparatus A.The recovery article one of the plastics 106 beyond the PVC and processing by No. 2 treating apparatus C is used to act as a fuel etc. and utilizes.

On the other hand, handle residue B owing to also contain plastics (not plastic containing chlorine) beyond a large amount of PVC, be broken into the size of 10～50mm about square according to its state after, deliver to treating apparatus No. 2 times, carry out heat treated while stirring.

The heating and stirring device that in heating agitating procedure 11a, uses Figure 12 to represent.This heating and stirring device has the heating tank diameter, and the heating tank diameter has can change the mixer of merit at a high speed, and the mixed waste plastic high-speed stirred this heating tank diameter of packing into produces frictional heat, utilizes this frictional heat can make it be warmed up to set point of temperature.

In this heating agitating procedure 11a, the mixed waste plastic high-speed stirred of packing into, make it be warmed up to the set point of temperature scope, continue to stir official hour in set point of temperature.Add in the thermal agitation at this, the plasticizer among the PVC produces volatilization, and PVC becomes fragile, and the PVC sheet becomes powder and molecule after pulverizing.

Heating stir process thing to discharging from heating agitating procedure 11a then in screening operation 12, is that the sieve of given size sieves with mesh.Utilize this screening operation to be divided into the lower part of screen of containing PVC powder and molecule in a large number and divide 105 and only contain the sieve top 104 of the not plastic containing chlorine formation of a small amount of PVC.Sieve top 104 is reused as blast furnace reducing agent and fuel etc.

In above-mentioned heating agitating procedure 11a, the too high words of temperature of heating and insulation, the not plastic containing chlorine fusion of low-melting PE, PP, PS etc., generate granular substance and block, because the PVC after stir pulverizing by heating adheres to or is coated on this granular substance and block, so the separation of PVC is insufficient.Be maintained at some plastics under the situation of temperature of melting degree, wherein a part becomes granular substance, if its growing amount is not many, the amount of sneaking into the plastic containing chlorine in the plastic containing chlorine not is limited to the degree of permission.Therefore the temperature of heating and insulation can be set at the plastics of packing into and begins the temperature of fusion or be lower than the temperature that a part of plastics begin fusion, and at their near zone.The temperature of heating and insulation is set because of being contained in the different of plastics kind in the mixed waste plastic etc., generally is decided to be 140 ℃～165 ℃ scopes.

As mentioned above, continue to stir plastics, because the temperature of plastics rises to the temperature province that surpasses above-mentioned heating and insulation, after rising to set point of temperature, limit a spot of water of jetting carries out cooling down operation sometimes, and the limit is proceeded to stir.

Heat time heating time in heating agitating procedure 11a is owing to be to pulverize the PVC sheet to powdering thing and needed time of molecule, so because of the size that is contained in the PVC in the mixed waste plastic and holding temperature of thickness, heating etc. different, its shape is under the situation of film shape, is generally about 10 minutes～20 minutes.

Fig. 9 is the key diagram of the embodiment 2-2 of mixed waste plastic method for separating and processing.This figure is the situation of first treating apparatus with the difference in specific gravity separating method.In Fig. 9,, omit its explanation because the operation in the treatment process (heating agitating procedure-screening operation) of No. 2 treating apparatus is identical with the situation of Fig. 8.

The mixed waste plastic that is fractured into the size of 10～50mm about square in this embodiment is sent to the difference in specific gravity sorting operation 120 of one of first processing means.In difference in specific gravity sorting operation 120, use Wet-type centrifugal separator shown in Figure 4 described later, utilize difference in specific gravity to carry out sorting process, be divided into proportion than the processing of the low low-gravity part 103 of PVC and proportion than its big high specific gravity part 102.In the plastics that are divided into two parts, low-gravity part 103 is not plastic containing chlorines of PE, PP, PS etc., owing to only contain the PVC of minute quantity, so can be used in the purposes of fuel etc. again.

On the other hand in as the high specific gravity part 102 that from mixed waste plastic, reclaims the residue that plastic containing chlorine not obtains, owing to also contain the plastics (not plastic containing chlorine) beyond a large amount of PVC, thereby it is delivered to carry out the heating agitating procedure 11a that handles for 2 times, the processing of heating while stirring, the sieve with the mesh of given size sieves in screening operation 12 then.Utilize this screening to handle to be divided into the lower part of screen that contains a large amount of PVC powders and molecule to divide 105 and only contain the sieve top 104 of the not plastic containing chlorine of minute quantity PVC.Sieve top 104 is reused as blast furnace reducing agent and fuel etc.

Figure 10 is the key diagram of the embodiment 2-3 of mixed waste plastic method for separating and processing.This figure represents to handle the situation of waste plastics of the plastic containing chlorine of the solid kind that contains bottle etc.Operation in Figure 10 in 4 operations of broken process-difference in specific gravity sorting operation-heating agitating procedure-screening operation is identical with the situation of Fig. 8 and Fig. 9, so omit its explanation.

Plastic containing chlorine in the mixed waste plastic is the words of solid kind, when in the heating agitating procedure, adding thermal agitation, plastic containing chlorine is crushed to the time that becomes powder and molecule and will grows, because the treatment effeciency in the heating agitating procedure reduces, so carry out the shape sorting at first, be divided into the plastics of solid kind and the plastics of film class, be separated into plastic containing chlorine and the not processing of plastic containing chlorine respectively.

In this embodiment, the mixed waste plastic 60 that contains plastic containing chlorine adopts the shape sorting unit of wind power sorting device and rock type sorting unit etc. in shape sorting operation 100, is divided into the solid kind plastics 106 of bottle etc. and the plastics 101 of film class.Film class plastics 101 are handled by processing sequence shown in Figure 9, are separated into plastic containing chlorine and plastic containing chlorine not, and plastic containing chlorine is not reclaimed.

Solid kind plastics 106 in PVC separation circuit 150, use the absorbance of utilizing the specific wavelength when shining near infrared ray to discern the optical fractionation device of its material, and the processing of only removing PVC is separated into PVC108 and other plastics 107.Other plastics 107 are recycling.And utilize PVC108 that above-mentioned optical fractionation device separates according to the state that is divided into, and be sent to broken process 10, reclaim the not processing of plastic containing chlorine again with the plastics of film class.

In Fig. 9 and embodiment shown in Figure 10, the first processing of reclaiming plastic containing chlorine not from mixed waste plastic is adopted the difference in specific gravity sorting and the situation of carrying out is illustrated, this first recycling is not limited to the difference in specific gravity sorting, also can be with the electrostatic separation method or with modes such as near infrared separating methods.

In the difference in specific gravity sorting operation of Fig. 9 and Figure 10, use the Wet-type centrifugal separator, do not carry out with the Wet-type centrifugal separator yet in embodiment 2, do not limit the difference in specific gravity sorting process.In the difference in specific gravity sorting unit in embodiment 2, can use separator with the damp process of liquid cyclone, wet type longitudinal type separator (low-gravity partly being floated, the separator of hyperbaric partly precipitated) etc.These separators are compared with the Wet-type centrifugal separator, and separation accuracy is poor, but all identical with the Wet-type centrifugal separator, have and can carry out mass disposal, and the while structure is characteristic of simple very.If therefore in difference in specific gravity sorting operation, use above-mentioned separator, compare with the situation of Wet-type centrifugal separator, the not plastic containing chlorine that remains in high specific gravity one side becomes many, but in embodiment 2, owing to can utilize this residual not plastic containing chlorine is carried out simple process, reclaim and carry out 2 times,, can reclaim not plastic containing chlorine effectively so can bring into play the characteristic of above-mentioned difference in specific gravity sorting unit.

Below the device that uses in the embodiment 2 is described.Figure 11 is the diagram that is illustrated in an example of the Wet-type centrifugal separator structure of using in the difference in specific gravity sorting operation.This Wet-type centrifugal separator 220, form the part that undergauge becomes circular cone shape in both sides, by making water or adjusting rotation main body 221 that the liquid medium of proportion rotates while being detained, constitute major part with the turning cylinder of the speed rotation of some difference of roll-shell rotating speed therewith and by

screw conveyer

222a, 222b that the screw that is arranged on this constitutes.The plastics of 102 expression high specific gravity parts among the figure, the plastics of 103 expression low-gravity parts.

Utilize this device separating plastic to be performed as follows.Liquid medium as much as possible is detained and it is rotated rotating on the main body 221, pack into and be dispersed in the broken thing of the waste plastics the liquid medium from the waste plastics pipe 223 of packing at its upper space.In rotating main body 221, to pack at the pipe 223 of packing into from waste plastics and to rotate the plastic sheet in main body 221 centres, the come-up that proportion is littler than liquid medium is than the heavy sinking of liquid medium.The action of centrifugal force that the proportion this moment plastics bigger than liquid medium produce owing to the rotation with rotation main body 221, quilt is promoted to sink.Heavy plastic sheet (high specific gravity part) concentrates near the inwall that rotates main body 221, and the plastic sheet that proportion is little (low-gravity part) concentrates near the liquid level (rotating center one side of main body 221) of liquid medium.High specific gravity part 102 is washed in a pan out by the big screw 222a of diameter, discharges from high specific gravity section port 224, is used as the PVC section processes.Low-gravity part 103 is washed in a pan out by the little screw 222b of diameter in addition, discharges from low-gravity section port 225, and being used as not, plastic containing chlorine reclaims.

Figure 12 is illustrated in heating and stirring device that heating uses in the agitating procedure and the diagram of an example of the screening plant that uses in the screening operation.

20 are the mixed waste plastic of packing into, and the heating tank diameter of Jia Re heating and stirring device by making mixer 23 rotation at a high speed that is arranged on its bottom, produces frictional heat while stirring.The mixed waste plastic that 60 expressions are packed into.

Sidepiece (measuring the height and position of agitator) at heating tank diameter 20 is provided with the temperature-detecting device 74 that detects the waste plastics temperature in stirring, and water injector 71 is set on top.Water injector 71 is to be used to suppress the cooling that raises because of the heated waste plastics excessive temperature of frictional heat, and the cooling of heating stir process after finishing be provided with, and starts and stops according to the index signal of coming water spraying control device 75.When the setting value of input heat tracing temperature in water spray control device 75, the detected value of temperature-detecting device 74 reached above-mentioned setting value, control valve 73 was only opened the very short time, sprays a spot of water, and the waste plastics temperature in the groove remains near the setting value.When having passed through the predetermined heating mixing time in addition, carry out the abundant water spray cooling of stipulated time.The 72 cooling water supply pipes that are arranged on the spray nozzle of groove inner end among the figure.

Screening plant 80 is as mentioned above the sieve of the handled thing that adds thermal agitation with regulation mesh size to be sieved, and removes PVC and is pulverized the powder of generation and the device of molecule.Utilize the above sieve top 104 of the specified diameter of screening plant 80 screening to be recovered as plastic containing chlorine not.Divide 105 processed in addition as PVC less than the lower part of screen of specified diameter.

As mentioned above, sieve by sieve with the regulation mesh, be divided into not plastic containing chlorine and PVC, but because as mentioned above, the waste plastics particle of heating after the stir process is more little, and the content that contains cl part (PVC) is many more, determines the mesh size of the sieve of the particle diameter lower limit that reclaims as recycling plastics, consider the proterties of waste plastics to be processed and the operating condition of melt pelletization device etc., determine according to the actual effect in past.General use mesh is the sieve between 1～3mm in the screening operation.

The heating and stirring device that Figure 12 represents is to have to make PVC that fragility be arranged after the waste plastics heating, and the device of the purpose that this PVC is pulverized.Therefore heating and stirring device is not defined as at the device that mixer is set in the groove of perpendicular type shown in Figure 12.For example also can be can add in the rotating cylinder of thermal agitation constituting, the device of this sample loading mode of ball mill of the crushing medium with selected shape and proportion of packing into be so long as main composition is just passable for the device of pulverizing the PVC that enbrittles.

Heating and stirring device is not limited to the device of a mode that the frictional heat that utilization is stirred heats shown in Figure 12 in addition.Especially in the device that can not carry out the high-speed stirred operation, for example also can use device, with the device of the mode of blowing hot-air heating etc. with indirect modes such as steam.

Above, the mixed waste plastic that high concentration ground is contained plastic containing chlorine has illustrated the enforcement embodiments of the present invention, the residue of plastic containing chlorine wherein in from the mixed plastic that contains plastic containing chlorine, separating the separation circuit of plastic containing chlorine not, producing, and the present invention is applicable to general mixed waste plastic too.For example also can be easily and accurately from being to separate the mixed waste plastic of main component to remove PVC etc. with PVC and PET.

Below embodiments of the invention are described.
