PP PE Film Regrind Washing and Recycling Line

PP PE Film Washing and Pelletizing System

PP PE Film Regrind Washing and Recycling Line

Convert contaminated PP and PE film scrap into clean, low-moisture regrind or stable pellet feed. This modular line combines shredding, washing, density separation, drying, and optional pelletizing for post-consumer film, agricultural film, woven bags, and rigid PP PE regrind.

PP PE film regrind washing and recycling line

Why Choose This Film Washing Line

The line is designed for dirty flexible plastic streams where yield, water control, and downstream pellet quality matter more than simple rinsing.

High Purity Output

Intensive scrubbing and density separation remove soil, labels, paper, and loose contamination before drying and pelletizing.

Energy Efficient Layout

Mechanical dewatering reduces thermal load so the line can control moisture without unnecessary power consumption.

Modular and Scalable

The process can be configured for 300 to 2000 plus kg per hour depending on contamination level and final quality target.

Low Moisture Discharge

Centrifugal or squeeze drying combined with hot air piping helps achieve low final moisture for extrusion stability.

Adapted to Film, Raffia, and Regrind Feedstock

Whether the material is stretch film, agricultural film, woven bags, or rigid PP PE regrind, the washing route can be adjusted around contamination type, sand load, and target pellet quality.

Modular Excellence

Key Line Components

Each module supports stable washing performance, lower moisture, and easier integration into a pelletizing workflow.

Wet Granulator

Reduces material to a conveyable flake size while helping the pre-wash stage start contamination removal.

Friction Washer

High-speed scrubbing removes labels, glued paper, and stubborn surface dirt from flexible plastic flakes.

Sink Float Separation Tank

Density separation rejects heavy impurities while keeping PP PE material in the target stream.

Centrifugal and Thermal Drying

Mechanical dewatering and hot air drying control moisture before storage or extrusion.

Pelletizing and Buffering

A clean flake buffer silo and pelletizing stage turn washed material into stable finished pellets for reuse in film, molding, and extrusion applications.

From Waste to Worth

Process Flow

A multi-stage washing route designed to transform contaminated PP PE waste into clean regrind and pellet-ready material.

1

Input and Size Reduction

Film and regrind are shredded or ground into a stable size that can move through washing equipment without tangling.

Shredding Sizing

Intensive Washing

Friction and hot wash stages remove labels, paper, oil, and surface contamination from the plastic stream.

Friction Cleaning

Applications

This washing route fits both contaminated flexible plastics and cleaner industrial regrind streams.

Flexible Packaging Film

Post-consumer LDPE and LLDPE stretch film, shrink wrap, and commercial packaging waste.

Agricultural Film

Heavily soiled mulch film, greenhouse film, and irrigation tubing with higher sand and soil load.

Woven Bags and Jumbo Bags

PP raffia and FIBC materials that need stable size reduction and strong washing performance.

Rigid PP PE Regrind

Crushed flakes from bottles, crates, molded parts, and pipe scraps that need cleaning before reuse.

Post-Industrial Scrap

Cleaner film edge trim, defective rolls, and factory offcuts where the target is stable pellet feed.

Integrated Washing and Pelletizing Projects

A strong fit for plants that want one coordinated route from dirty film input to washed flakes or finished pellets.

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to common technical, utility, and delivery questions for PP PE film washing lines.

A complete line may include shredding, pre-washing, friction washing, sink float separation, dewatering, thermal drying, storage buffering, and optional pelletizing depending on feedstock condition and final quality target.

Typical projects range from around 300 kg per hour for smaller installations up to 2000 kg per hour or more for industrial recycling plants. Real output depends on contamination load and drying requirements.

Yes, but agricultural film usually requires stronger pre-washing, more settling capacity, and tighter water management because sand, soil, and organics are much heavier than in cleaner industrial scrap.

Configurations can be adapted to regional power standards such as 400V 50Hz for Europe or 460V 60Hz for North America. CE-oriented configurations and English HMI support are available.

Yes. We support layout planning, remote or onsite commissioning, and operator training according to project scope and delivery arrangement.

Water systems can be configured as open or closed-loop circuits with filtration and sludge handling support, helping reduce consumption and simplify environmental compliance.
