Trommel Screen

Plastic waste management has become a significant environmental concern globally. Sorting plastic waste effectively is crucial to promote recycling and minimize pollution. This article aims to provide an optimized approach for utilizing a trommel screen to separate organic residue contaminants from plastic waste. The trommel screen, a cylindrical device with various-sized openings, can facilitate efficient separation while minimizing contamination.Proper Trommel Screen Sizing:To optimize the separation process, it is essential to select an appropriate trommel screen size. The trommel screen's length, diameter, and the size of the openings should correspond with the specific plastic waste composition and the targeted organic residue contaminants. Conduct thorough analysis and consider the particle size distribution of the waste to determine the optimal screen parameters.Pre-Screening and Sorting:Before introducing the plastic waste into the trommel screen, it is advisable to pre-screen and sort the waste

Trommel screens are one of the most widely used and efficient mechanical screening equipment. They excel in continuous separating of materials such as municipal solid waste, construction and demolition waste, wood chips, soil, compost, and other challenging substances. The trommel screen's ability to tumble materials resolves the clogging issues commonly encountered by traditional screening equipment when dealing with wet and sticky materials.However, trommel screens are not without their drawbacks. Factors such as their larger footprint, lower throughput, and the inconvenience of screen replacement pose challenges in certain applications.GEP ECOTECH's Trommel Screens are designed for prolonged use in harsh environments.
