Sink-float separation tank for plastic recycling and density separation

Density-Based Plastic Separation

Sink-Float Razdvajački tank

Energycle sink-float separation tanks use water density to separate PET, PP, PE, PVC, ABS, and other polymers with stable purity, continuous discharge, and low water consumption. They are built for PET bottle recycling lines, mixed rigid plastic recovery, and other applications where heavy and light fractions need a reliable split before drying, optical sorting, or pelletizing.

Ključne prednosti

Why Recyclers Choose This Sink-Float Tank

Built for industrial-scale density separation with minimal downtime and maximum material purity.

High-Purity Separation

Natural density differences let PET, PVC, and other heavy plastics sink while PP and PE float, helping produce clean output streams without chemical additives.

Multi-Polymer Versatility

One tank can support PET bottle recycling, PP and PE recovery from mixed streams, PVC sorting, and other rigid plastic separation applications.

Automatizirani kontinuirani tijek rada

Screw conveyors, paddles, and rotating drum screens feed, separate, and discharge material continuously, reducing manual handling and line interruptions.

Water-Efficient Design

Closed-loop recirculation with settling and screening can reduce freshwater consumption by up to 80 percent compared with once-through systems.

Durable SS304 Construction

All wetted surfaces use stainless steel for long service life in aggressive wash-water environments, while the frame keeps the machine stable under continuous load.

Jednostavan pristup za održavanje

Removable screens, accessible conveyors, and replaceable wear parts make service faster and reduce the downtime usually associated with dense-fraction separation equipment.

How Sink-Float Separation Works

Materials denser than water sink while lighter materials float. Once pre-washed flakes enter the tank, the machine uses that physical principle to split mixed plastic streams into cleaner fractions.

1

Dovod materijala

Pre-washed and crushed flakes enter the separation tank through a stable conveyor or feeder.

Stabilna hrana Pre-washed
2

Odvajanje po gustoći

PET, PVC, and other heavy fractions sink while PP and PE remain near the water surface.

Heavy sink Light float
3

Collection and Discharge

Floating material is skimmed from the top while sinking material is collected through bottom conveyors or scrapers.

Recirkulacija vode

Settling chambers and screens remove solids before process water returns to the tank.

Primjene

Applications by Material Type

These tanks are configured for the main polymer recovery scenarios found in modern plastic recycling plants.

Recikliranje PET boca

PET sinks while PP and PE caps, labels, and film fragments float, helping achieve the high flake purity required for food-grade and fiber-grade rPET production.

PET lines

PP and PE Recovery

Polyolefins float in water, making the tank a practical way to recover PP and PE from heavier contaminants in mixed plastic waste streams.

Polyolefins

PVC, PC, and PS Sorting

Dense fractions such as PVC, PC, and some PS grades can be separated from lighter contamination before finer downstream sorting stages.

Heavy fraction

Mixed Rigid Plastics and E-Waste

Post-consumer rigid plastics, automotive scrap, and WEEE housings often use sink-float separation as a purification step before extrusion or pelletizing.

Mixed rigid

Inženjering

Engineering and Design Features

Every section of the machine is designed to improve separation efficiency, reliability, and maintenance access.

W-Shaped Sedimentation Bottom

The tank bottom channels sinking material toward central conveyors, reducing dead zones and accelerating heavy-fraction discharge.

Primary and Polishing Zones

A two-zone layout helps capture residual cross-contamination and can improve final purity compared with simpler single-zone designs.

Triple-Row Upgrade Path

For larger plants, a triple-row configuration increases throughput while keeping the same separation principle and footprint efficiency.

Integrated Mesh Screens

Screens at discharge points catch fines and small contaminants while remaining accessible for cleaning and replacement.

Floatables (PP/PE) float to the top; heavy plastics (PVC/PET/PC) settle at the bottom, forming a distinct stratification for precise separation.

Tank width, length, discharge systems, and downstream connections can be tailored to material type, line speed, and expansion plans.

Closed-Loop Water System

Settling, screening, and recirculation equipment can be integrated so the separation stage uses less fresh water and creates less wastewater burden.

Vodič za izbor

Kako izabrati pravi sink-float tank

Tri čimbenika obično određuju pravu konfiguraciju za vašu liniju za recikliranje.

Profil materijala i kontaminacije

Glavni polimer, razina kontaminacije i prisutnost više gustih frakcija utječu na to, trebate li standardni tank, polirnu zonu ili višestupnu postavku.

Kapacitet i propusnost

Širina i duljina tanaka skaliraju se s brzinom linije. Male linije mogu koristiti kompaktan jedinstveni tank, dok više količinski sustavi mogu zahtjevati dulju vrijednost zadržavanja ili troredni raspored.

Raspored vode i ispuštanja

Vaša dostupna prostorija na podu, postava vodenočišta i preferencija ispuštanja određuju treba li dodati gredice, valjke, češlje i dodatne faze filtracije.
