Abstract

A method for processing at least one plastic material (1) suitable for recycling comprises packaging it into a soft air-permeable container (2) made from the same plastic material, then mixing the container and its contents with waste paper and cardboard material (4) and then compacting the mixture into a suitable shape (5). Conventional equipment and conveyors for transporting recycled paper are used to deliver the compacted mixture to a collection site where it is sorted for recycling of the paper and plastic. Preferably the plastic material is polyethylene.

Description

15 20 25 30 502 785 2 och kartongmaterial, så kallat returpapper, pressas samman till en för transport lämplig form och att för transport av det sålunda med returpapperet sammanpressade plastmateria- let utnyttjas för returpapper etablerade transportmedel och transportvägar för exempelvis en uppsamlingsplats och att plastmaterialet efter transporten till uppsamlingsplatsen utsorteras för återvinning. 15 20 25 30 502 785 2 and cardboard material, so-called recycled paper, is compressed into a shape suitable for transport and that for transporting the plastic material thus compressed with the recycled paper, transport means and transport paths established for recycled paper are used for e.g. the transport to the collection point is sorted for recycling.

Enligt ett särskilt kännetecken för uppfinningen, utnyttjas metoden för återvinning av polyeten.According to a particular feature of the invention, the method of recycling polyethylene is used.

Enligt ett annat särskilt kännetecken utgörs nämnda behål- lare av en perforerad plastsäck.According to another special feature, said container consists of a perforated plastic bag.

I enlighet med ett speciellt kännetecken görs behållaren luftgenomtränglig i samband med sammanpressningen.In accordance with a special feature, the container is made air permeable in connection with the compression.

Den uppfinningsenliga metoden kommer nu att beskrivas när- mare med hänvisning till bifogade ritning, som illustrerar metodens viktigaste steg.The method according to the invention will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawing, which illustrates the most important steps of the method.

Det återvinningsbara plastmaterialet 1 samlas företrädesvis i en med hål perforerad plastsäck 2, vilken är tillverkad i samma material som nämnda àtervinningsbara plast och upp- ställd på lämplig plats i anslutning till en butik. Plast- säcken kan även alternativt vara utförd som en tunn, ej perforerad säck. När plastsäcken 2 har fyllts till till- fredställande nivå placeras den för sammanpressning i en balpress 3. Då plastsäcken ej är perforerad uppnås luftge- nomträngligheten genom att plastsäcken tillåts rämna vid sammanpressningen. Balpressen 3 utnyttjas även på brukligt sätt för sammanpressning av vanligt papper och wellpapp 4. 10 15 20 502 785 3 Det i balpressen 3 sammanpressade materialet blir med den uppfinningsenliga metoden en bal 5 innehållande en bland- ning av vanligt papper, wellpapp och plastmaterial.The recyclable plastic material 1 is preferably collected in a perforated plastic bag 2, which is made of the same material as said recyclable plastic and set up in a suitable place adjacent to a store. The plastic bag can also alternatively be made as a thin, non-perforated bag. When the plastic bag 2 has been filled to a satisfactory level, it is placed for compression in a baler 3. When the plastic bag is not perforated, the air permeability is achieved by allowing the plastic bag to crack during compression. The baler 3 is also used in the usual way for compressing ordinary paper and corrugated cardboard 4. The material compressed in the baler 3 becomes, with the method according to the invention, a baler 5 containing a mixture of ordinary paper, corrugated cardboard and plastic material.

Som redan nämnts inledningsvis finns etablerade rutiner för omhändertagande av balar innehållande endast pappers- och pappmaterial. Dessa rutiner representerande bland annat transport av balar till en àtervinningsstation markeras pà ritningen med en pil 6. I àtervinningsstationen sker sor- tering av papper för sig och kartongmaterial (wellpapp) för sig. Det är således mycket enkelt och. billigt att låta plasten följa med returpappersmaterialet eftersom säckarna 2 gör det enkelt att i samband med sortering av pappersma- terialet också sortera ut plasten.As already mentioned in the introduction, there are established routines for disposing of bales containing only paper and cardboard materials. These routines representing, among other things, the transport of bales to a recycling station are marked in the drawing with an arrow 6. In the recycling station, paper is sorted separately and cardboard material (corrugated cardboard) is made separately. It is thus very simple and. cheap to let the plastic accompany the recycled paper material because the bags 2 make it easy to sort out the plastic in connection with sorting the paper material.

Det är uppenbart att man med den uppfinningsenliga metoden kan hantera flera olika plastmaterial under förutsättning att dessa packas i säckar som gör sorteringen enkel och säker.It is obvious that with the method according to the invention it is possible to handle several different plastic materials, provided that these are packed in bags which makes sorting simple and safe.
