PAPER RECYCLING MACHINE

Abstract

In the modern era, excessive deforestation has created the need for recycling of papers. Today, Paper is being recycled on a large industrial scale, but there is no set for recycling on small local or domestic scale for example in the universities, offices and homes. A simple Paper recycling machine consists of a shredding unit for shredding waste paper into relatively smaller sized strips, then a pulping unit to make use of a mixture of water and paper strips to pulp paper to fibers. The pulp water mixture is deinked by froth flotation process and transported to forming section. The Forming section dries up the deinked pulp water mixture as it is pressed while moving it on a conveyor belt and simultaneously, water is removed under the pressure of the weight of gas-powered iron. The iron attachment allows it move back and forth to allow for even heating of the pulp to achieve efficient evaporation of remaining water. The cost will be reduced for this case as a large amount of water is removed directly through the wire mesh. Pumps and motors will also be used to transport pulp mixture and water, respectively. This machine will save the environment, because, to produce paper, trees are used and in recycling there will be of already used paper.
