How to remove aluminum from medicine blister packs?

There are many ways to remove aluminum foil from medicine blister packs, like burning, chemical extracting method or using aluminum plastic recycling machine to process. However, as the environmental protection requirements become more and more stringent, burning method and chemical extracting method have been banned by many government. So using the aluminum plastic recycling machine to remove aluminum foil from medicine blister packs has become the most welcomed way now, because of no pollution.

Well, how to remove aluminum foil from medicine blister packs using aluminum plastic recycling machine? Next, Henan Doing Environmental Protection Technology Co., Ltd. introduces it for you in details.

Here is a 3D animation which can show you the working process of the aluminum plastic recycling machine step by step.

1. Crushing:

The first step is using a crusher to crush the waste medicine blister packs into small particles about 3-5mm.

2. Grinding:

Due to the good adhesion of aluminum and plastic, it's necessary to crush the particles smaller. Grinder will grind the small particles into powder about 24-26 mesh, because at this powder size, aluminum and plastic can be clearly separated.

Circulation water cooling system

During the grinding, in order to prevent the powder from melting due to the high temperature, circulation water cooling system will working for decrease the temperature of grinder.

3. Sieving:

In case some powders are not ground to the suitable size, an eddy-vibrating screen will control the powder size, and send the bigger powder back to the grinder until the suitable size.

4. Electrostatic separation:

Electrostatic separator will separate aluminum from plastic according to the different conductivity of metals and non-metals. The separating rate can reach to 99%.

During the whole working process, pulse and cyclone dust removal system is working to collect the dust with the collecting rate of 99.5%, which won’t lead to air pollution. Moreover, aluminum plastic recycling machine adopts dry physical separation method, uses no water, fire, or chemical solution, which won't damage the quality of aluminum and plastic and bring considerable profit to us.
