  • Publication number: 20240075659
    Abstract: Moldable material comprising at least 5% by weight of polymeric regrind material recovered from Automotive Shredder Residue (ASR) and method of manufacturing the same are provided. The method comprises the steps of providing a polymer material sorted from ASR; grinding the polymer material sorted from ASR to form a regrind material; depositing the regrind material into a liquid solution having a specific gravity and performing a liquid density separation; removing a plurality of pieces of regrind material having a specific gravity of less than the liquid solution specific gravity from a surface of the liquid; conditioning the removed pieces of regrind material; blending the respective pieces of regrind material with a primary polymer to create a polymeric blend; compounding the polymeric blend via the addition of at least one additive thereby creating a plastics compound; and supplying the resultant plastics compound to an extrusion machine to produce the moldable material.

  • Patent number: 8206149
    Abstract: A description is given of a burner for introducing solid, liquid or gaseous fuel into the burning zone of a kiln, such as rotary kiln for manufacturing cement clinker or “similar materials, said burner comprising a burner pipe (1) which encircles a number of ducts for conveying fuel and combustion air through the burner. The burner is characterized in that the burner pipe (1) is made up of modules (1a, 1b) which are fixed to another by fixing means (9) which will allow non-destructive assembly and disassembly of the modules. Hereby is obtained a burner in which it will be possible in a simple and non-destructive manner to disassembly the burner pipe (1) in modules (1a, 1b) in direction from the free end of the burner (7) or the burner tip.
