Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What materials can the BMF melt filter process? A: The BMF series is versatile and ideal for post-consumer LDPE, LLDPE, HDPE, and PP, particularly for materials with high contamination like paper labels or wood.
Q: How often does the filter belt need to be changed? A: The system uses a continuous filter belt roll (up to 50m length). The belt automatically advances based on pressure build-up, lasting weeks depending on contamination levels.

2. The Recycling Process & PCU Technology

Polyretec offers a seamless 4-stage ecosystem: Collection → Sorting → Washing → Extrusion 7.

Preconditioning Unit (PCU): All-in-One Processing

The dynamic Preconditioning Unit (PCU) prepares plastics ideally for the extruder, setting the course for high end-product quality
7-in-1 Functionality: Integrates Cutting, Homogenising, Heating, Drying, Compacting, Buffering, and Dosing in a single stage
Gentle Melting & Low Shear: Preserves material properties by ensuring impurities are not broken up, making them easier to filter
Odour & Discolouration Control: Removes cellulose (paper/wood), rubber, and silicone early in the process to prevent outgassing and unpleasant smells 

003

Advanced Degassing Technology

Triple Degassing System: Achieves a real full-vacuum state. Degassing occurs first in the PCU, followed by two stages in the extruder.
Air Flush Technology: Highly effective at removing volatile odours prior to extrusion

3. ReFresher: High-Efficiency Anti-Odour Technology

Target high-end applications (e.g., automotive, living spaces) with the ReFresher module
Chemical-Free Process: Uses a thermal-physical cleaning process without additives.
Deep Cleansing: Reduces odours caused by low-volatile, high-molecular substances.
Energy Saving: Utilizes the intrinsic heat energy of the pellets (requires min. 60°C) from the extrusion process.

Solution:
● Cosmetic Grade Output: Capable of producing pellets for "rinse-off" packaging applications
● Universal Screw Design: Processes varying bulk densities (30 to 800 g/l) without changing the screw
● Extended Residence Time: 1-hour PCU residence time ensures homogeneous heating and decontamination

D. Washed Film Flakes (Post-Consumer)

Challenge: Residual moisture up to 12% and multi-layer film impurities (PET/PA) .
Solution:
● Double Disc Technology: Efficiently handles high moisture levels
● Ultra-Fine Filtration: Filters down to 63 μm, removing NBR and latex particles
