Definitions
- the invention relates to a process for the continuous optoelectronic treatment of used synthetic organic material streams, recyclable in the fields of plastics, in a fragmented form of particles made homogeneous in composition but heterogeneous in coloring, which consists in sorting and to eliminate from these homogeneous flows, in continuous motion, colored particles in their mass, in particular those stained by cadmium compounds.
- the invention also relates to a device for optoelectronic treatment of a stream of used synthetic organic materials for recovery by recycling, in a fragmented form of particles, which sorts and eliminates from this flow in continuous motion the particles of said colored materials. in their mass, in particular, by cadmium compounds.
- the invention finally relates to the use of the process of optoelectronic treatment of a stream of used synthetic organic materials, to be recycled, in a fragmented form of particles for continuously sorting and removing particles of said colored materials. in their mass and in particular, those stained by cadmium compounds.
- the used synthetic organic materials concerned are generally derived from the destruction by grinding of automobiles and end-of-life durable consumer goods, in which a multiplicity of types of synthetic organic materials such as thermoplastic polymers and / or copolymers Whether loaded or not, flame retarded or not, whether or not added, colored or not, are to be considered as recyclable, that is to say industrially valued, and in which a multiplicity of other materials are considered as troublesome contaminants which must be be eliminated, such as metals, minerals and other contaminants physically accompanying them or contained for some in the mass of said used organic synthesis materials to be valued.
- synthetic organic materials such as thermoplastic polymers and / or copolymers Whether loaded or not, flame retarded or not, whether or not added, colored or not, are to be considered as recyclable, that is to say industrially valued, and in which a multiplicity of other materials are considered as troublesome contaminants which must be be eliminated, such as metals, minerals and other contaminants physically accompanying them or contained for some in the mass of said used organic synthesis materials to be valued.
- a phase of synthetic materials of low value formed for example by foams of polyethylene, polyurethane, film waste, fabrics, yarns, carpets or others,
- the invention relates, therefore and primarily, to a method of optoelectronic treatment of continuous flow of particles of used synthetic organic materials to be recycled, which is in a fragmented form of particles made previously homogeneous in composition, this process consisting in eliminating these homogeneous flows, the colored particles in the mass of said materials, in particular those stained by cadmium compounds whose standardized content must be less than 100 ppm.
- the process of continuous optoelectronic treatment of particle streams of used organic synthesis materials to be recycled, made previously homogeneous in composition, to eliminate those of particles colored in their mass, in particular by cadmium compounds is characterized in that it comprises steps: (a) the transformation in a suitable zone and by a suitable means of a continuous flow of bulk particles of used organic synthesis materials to be recycled, homogeneous in composition, into a structured stream in the form of a single layer curtain of separated particles, one of the others, flowing in free fall, according to a given flow,
- each stream being substantially homogeneous in chemical composition but heterogeneous by color due to the presence of certain colored particles in the mass and the presence of some organic contaminants. Since each stream of used synthetic organic material particles to be recycled has been made almost homogeneous in chemical composition, each of these streams is recyclable by the techniques of the plastics industry, provided however that these streams are regulated by regulations free of colored particles in the mass by cadmium compounds whose standardized content, for this element, must be less than 100 ppm.
- the largest dimension of the particles of used organic synthesis materials recycled to form bulk flows rendered virtually homogeneous in composition and entering said processes is between 2 and 40 mm, preferably between 4 and 12 mm and very preferably between 6 and 10 mm.
- step a) of the Process According to the Invention
- step a) concerns the transformation in an appropriate zone by a suitable means of a bulk continuous flow of used synthetic organic material particles for recycling, substantially homogeneous in composition in a monolayer flow of particles of said materials, forming a curtain separated from each other and flowing in free fall .
- the appropriate means for transforming a bulk particle stream into an organized monolayer flow of said particles may be selected from the treadmills, vibrating, horizontal or inclined conveyors, ascending or descending, receiving the bulk particle stream via static or dynamic hoppers, whose flow rate is controlled.
- the hourly flow rate of the appropriate means transforming a stream of bulk particles, almost homogeneous in composition into a monolayer curtain-shaped stream of said particles is at most 20 T / h, preferably 1 to 5 Tons / h. This flow rate remains the same throughout the course of each step of the method according to the invention.
- the continuous organization of the monolayer of particles of said materials to be recycled, almost homogeneous in composition is such that the particles deposited on the appropriate means for converting a bulk flow into a monolayer curtain are at most in contact with each other. others without overlapping, and preferentially separated by an empty space.
- the organized monolayer of particles of said materials to be recycled is released continuously from said means in a free fall, forming the single-layer curtain of particles of said materials to be recycled.
- the organized monolayer of particles of said materials to be recycled can pass through an intermediate phase of an inclined plane placed between the outlet of the appropriate means of organization of the monolayer. of particles and release in a free fall, forming a curtain of said monolayer.
- the monolayer curtain in a free fall formed of particles of organic materials to be recycled, almost homogeneous in composition but heterogeneous in color by the presence in the mass of certain colored particles, in particular by cadmium compounds, flows in free fall continuously in an observation and optical recording zone formed by at least two cameras, placed facing each other, on either side of said curtain of particles, these cameras recording the double-sided images of each particle present in said curtain.
- the cameras are adjusted to the chromatic color values of the colored compounds present in the mass of the colored particles to be eliminated.
- the color values imposed on the cameras correspond to the three yellow-orange-red colors.
- said flow in the form of monolayer curtain in free fall takes a substantially vertical trajectory in the zone provided with optoelectronic observation and recording means; this facilitates the digital processing of the data by the information analysis and transmission means, in particular for determining the coordinates in time and space of each particle for disposal by the removal means.
- step (b) the information relating to the two-sided images of each particle present in the monolayer curtain in free fall, recorded by the cameras, are transmitted in real time to computer means including software and algorithms:
- the removal means may be chosen from those existing in the state of the art, such as a mechanical ejection means or a liquid medium, such as high-pressure water jet or a gaseous medium such as jet of water. compressed air, each of these means being sufficiently precise to eliminate each colored particle that must be, without simultaneously causing particles that should not be, these collateral eliminations to be limited to the extreme, or even completely controlled.
- the invention also relates to a device for optoelectronic treatment of a stream of used synthetic organic materials, to be recovered by recycling, which is in a fragmented form of particles that are almost homogeneous in composition, which sorts and eliminates from this stream a continuous movement of particles of said materials stained in their mass, in particular by cadmium compounds.
- the means for converting a bulk continuous flow of particles of used organic synthesis materials to be recycled, which are almost homogeneous in composition, into a flow in the form of a monolayer curtain flowing in free fall, are chosen from vibrating mats, treadmills, horizontal, descending or ascending, fed by hoppers receiving the bulk flow of said particles and transforming it into a stream-like monolayer curtain;
- the means for observing and recording the double-sided images of each particle of the monolayer curtain flow of the particles in free fall, and having the capacity to transmit the images in real time to analysis means, are chosen from the cameras available in the state of the art;
- the transmission of information and analysis means are software and algorithms that receive in real time the two-sided images of each particle monolayer particle curtain in free fall, detect the presence of the colored particles in the mass in particular by cadmium compounds and determine the coordinates in time and space of each colored particle to be removed from the curtain;
- the means for removing the colored particles present in the monolayer curtain of the particles in free fall are chosen from the mechanical, liquid or gaseous ejection means belonging to the state of the art, these means receiving in real time by computer means all the information relating to each colored particle to be eliminated, that is to say the coordinates in time and space of each colored particle located in the curtain of particles in free fall.
- an inclined plane can be set up between the means for transforming a continuous stream of bulk particles into a continuous stream in the form of a single-layer curtain of said particles, flowing in free fall , to help the formation and control the free fall.
- said stream in the form of monolayer curtain in free fall takes a substantially vertical trajectory in the zone provided with optoelectronic observation and recording means.
- the invention finally relates to the use of the device and the method for eliminating from a stream of used particles to be recycled, almost homogeneous in composition, those of the particles colored in their mass by compounds, in particular cadmium.
- the process according to the invention makes it possible to reduce substantially the content of a flow of fragmented particles of organic synthesis materials into colored particles.
- its cadmium content which is typically present as cadmium compounds having a characteristic color, can be lowered to less than 20 mass ppm, and preferably less than 10 mass ppm.
- the process makes it possible to lower an initial cadmium content of 80 -150 mass ppm in the incoming stream of particles at 10-20 ppm.
- ABS particles had their largest dimension between 4 and 12 mm. This flow of ABS particles still contained some contaminating materials such as rubbers at 2% to 4% by weight.
- the flow rate of the ABS particle stream by optoelectronic processing was set at 1 ton per hour.
- step (a) of the method the bulk flow of ABS particles containing ABS particles colored in the mass by cadmium compounds, feeds a hopper (1) which in turn discharges the flow of said particles on a vibrating carpet (2) downstream.
- This vibrating mat transforms the continuous stream of bulk ABS particles into a monolayer curtain stream (3) whose constituent particles are separated from each other.
- the monolayer curtain-shaped flow slides along an inclined plane (4) on which the monolayer curtain of ABS particles remains formed and improves in its organization.
- the monolayer curtain-shaped flow Downstream of the inclined plane (4), the monolayer curtain-shaped flow is released from the inclined plane and freely falls along a path (5) which can become substantially vertical.
- the monolayer curtain-shaped flow is released as soon as the downstream outlet (3) of the vibrating belt (2) and the flow path in the form of a single-layer curtain very quickly takes a substantially vertical trend.
- step (b) the flow in the form of monolayer curtain in free fall along the substantially vertical trajectory (5) passes into an optoelectronic observation and recording zone comprising at least two cameras (6) and (7) ) placed next to each other, on either side of the stream of curtain-shaped particles, which record the two-sided images of each particle in said curtain.
- the cameras (6) and (7) transmit the two-sided images of the particles forming the curtain (5) to a set of computer processing means of images comprising software and algorithms ensuring real-time online detection of particles colored in the mass by cadmium compounds, determining the coordinates in time and space of each colored particle to be removed from the curtain of particles and the transmission of this information to means of removing (8) and (9) the colored particles in the mass and separating the colored particles that are removed in a receptacle (10) while the flow of unstained particles is received in the receptacle (11).
- the initial cadmium content was lowered from 80-150 ppm by weight to 10-20 ppm.
