| abstract |
The invention relates to a process and a plant for processing mixed plastics, especially such from domestic refuse. In the process of the invention, the material to be prepared is milled in a milling stage and compounded in an agglomerator in which volatile components are removed by an extractor device, and the compounded material is dried in a drying section. The finely divided proportion of the agglomerated plastic, in particular, is sieved off to reduce unwanted materials like paper and ash. The drying process of the invention makes it possible to produce a high-quality plastic compound without power-consuming wet process stages which is suitable for further industrial processing. |
