5-Meter LDPE & PP Washing Pool

5-Meter LDPE & PP Washing Pool: Deep Purification for Sensitive Materials

In plastic recycling, processing materials lighter than water, such as LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene) and PP (Polypropylene), requires high precision and an effective conveying mechanism. The OGZ Machine 5-Meter LDPE & PP Washing Pool is designed in accordance with the characteristics of these polymers to maximize the material's residence time on the water and the washing intensity. The special 5-meter line length offers the ideal distance for stubborn contaminants on light plastics to be completely dissolved and separated at perfect purity.

Drum Technology Tailored to LDPE and PP Characteristics

Since LDPE and PP materials are lighter than water, they tend to cluster on the water's surface. The specially driven drum system in our pool creates a mechanical washing effect by continuously submerging these light plastics into the water and bringing them back up. This motion ensures the physical detachment of dust, mud, and paper labels embedded in the material's pores. This dynamic flow, which continues along the 5-meter track, directly increases the quality of the material heading to the granulation line, minimizing the waste rate in the final product.

Automatic Separation Based on Density Difference

The greatest challenge in LDPE and PP washing processes is the "sinking" contaminants mixed into the material, such as PVC, PET, or metal pieces. While our pool safely transports LDPE and PP on the water surface by utilizing the water's buoyancy, all foreign substances heavier than water settle to the bottom of the pool. Automatic discharge screws integrated into the bottom section expel these heavy contaminants from the system without interrupting the production flow. In this way, near 100% separation success is achieved in your light plastic group.

Durable Engineering and Operational Advantages

• Corrosion-Resistant Body: Operating under constant contact with water and chemicals, the pool is manufactured from AISI 304 quality stainless steel that provides full protection against corrosion, or optionally from durable carbon steel.

• Maximum Cleaning, Minimum Energy: Our drum angles and motor powers are optimized to overcome the resistance of LDPE and PP on water with the lowest energy consumption.

• Safe Access Area: An operator platform and ladder, designed for operators to monitor the washing process instantly, are included in the unit in compliance with occupational safety standards.

Why the 5-Meter Model for LDPE & PP?

The 5-meter line length optimizes "cleaning time" by preventing light plastics from flowing over the water too quickly. It increases the contact surface of bulky materials, such as LDPE film waste or PP flakes, with water. This model from OGZ Machine is an engineering investment that extends the filter change interval of your granulation machine and elevates your raw material quality to global standards.
