  • Patent number: 12151248
    Abstract: An item of equipment for separating bagged waste has a hopper, separation means for separating the waste, a scanner for classifying the waste, elements for opening the bagged waste, chutes with gates, classification means, an artificial vision camera, and a plurality of shredders. Thus, the shredders are able to shred the waste subsequent to the classification thereof by type of polymer and color, thanks to the artificial vision camera. The equipment enables the individual separation of the bagged waste for the subsequent treatment thereof, as frequently some bags of waste are adhered to others.

  • Publication number: 20240375319
    Abstract: A method for recirculating non-hygroscopic polymers from rigid plastic food containers or industrial post-consumption and a system for carrying out the method allows for low-speed grinding of the containers to be recirculated, keeping the contaminants on the surface of the flakes generated by the cutting of the hooked blades on different levels of a shredder, while helping to eliminate contaminants by scrubbing. The scrubbing is done in pools specifically designed for this purpose, provided with a worm screw and perforated fins that extend from the worm screw. The high-speed shredding of the flakes is done as one of the final steps of the method.

  • Publication number: 20240338991
    Abstract: A reusable identification device provided with a metallic portion and made up of a spherical body that houses an identification chip therein. Thus, the identification chip is provided with RFID or NFC technology. The reusable identification device is contained in a dispenser embodied by a container, a hopper, a screen, a release mechanism and an RFID or NFC reader. Thus, including the RFID reader allows the reusable identification devices to be printed, so that an unequivocal link is established between the user and the waste deposited.
