Polyfloat® 

 ǀ 99 % pure plastics

99 % pure plastics

Polyfloat® is the leading technology for density separation of plastics from shredder residue as well as electric and electronic scrap. Developed by recycling specialist SiCon at least 99 % purity is achieved. The secret lays in the innovative lamella separation system which eliminates the air bubble effect of traditional wet separation technology. Combined with high precision working process control equipment, Polyfloat® sets a new quality standard for plastic recovery.

 

Your advantages with Polyfloat®

  • High-precision density separation increases profit
  • Automatic adaptation of the density fluctuation
  • Applicable for PE/PP, ABS/PS and other plastics
    as well as WEEE and vacuum operation
  • Environment-friendly design:
    With integrated recovery and treatment of density media

Eliminate the air bubble effect

All wet separation technologies work according to the density of the suspended particles. If these particles are porous, their cavities fill with air. Moreover air bubbles in the separation agent may deposit on the corners and edges. This causes plastic particles to rise and ruins the purity of the fraction. The Polyfloat® technology eliminates this air bubble effect. Even in a vacuum environment it ensures outstanding clean fractioning.

Increased productivity and security

Polyfloat® not only increases the purity of the recovered light fraction. All processes are fully automated which allows immediate adaptation to density fluctuation. Various density media are available for perfect separation of different plastics. And the modular design enables the stepwise increase in capacity up to 7 tons per hour. Polyfloat® makes your recovery plant more productive, more flexible and more secure.
