Extrusion International 4-2018

5 Extrusion International 4/2018 In September 2018 the world’s first facility for POAL re- cycling will be in operation to produce Ecoallene. AMUT has fully developed this pioneering project together with the Italian start-up Ecoplasteam. Page 20 Trioplast France produces agricultural plastics films in Pouancé. The LDPE and LLDPE production and post used waste is recycled on two EREMA 1514 TVEplus® ma- chines. Page 26 Cofit International presented an important innovation in the field of screen changers at Plast 2018, its most innova- tive model for recycling highly contaminated plastics. Page 32 With the ability to test materials before they are ex- truded, Guill customers receive testing coupled with industry experience and shorter lead times. Guill Tool has opened an in-house rheology laboratory, making it the only extrusion toolingmanufacturer in the industry with such a capability. Page 24 Regranulation is the easiest way to recycle a polymeric material and, for that purpose, single-screw extruders are employed. However, when the aim is toprovide an added value to thematerial or to preserve its fragile stability, the use of a co-rotating twin-screw extruder is mandatory. Page 27 New brand application, made possible by higher light intensity, will be a welcome breakthrough at a time when demand for plastic bottles and trays is growing internationally. TOMRA Sorting Recycling has intro- duced a new technology called TOMRA SHARP EYE, which makes it possible to separate single-layer PET trays from PET bottles. Page 31
