en.Wedoany.com Reported - Next Generation Recyclingmaschinen GmbH (NGR) and Leistritz Extrusionstechnik GmbH announced a collaboration, launching customer trials for an innovative recycling compounding process at the NGR Test Center in Austria. This one-step recycling compounding technology requires only a single melting process to simultaneously complete plastic recycling and material compounding. The pilot plant is designed with a processing capacity of 600 to 1100 pounds of material per hour.

The NGR-Leistritz process aims to respond to the new EU packaging regulations coming into effect in August, meeting mandatory content requirements and material restrictions by improving the efficiency of the recycling chain. The system utilizes NGR's C:Gran technology for preliminary processing, combined with Leistritz's twin-screw extruder to complete the compounding, significantly reducing energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions.

By reducing the number of melting cycles, this recycling compounding process not only saves energy but also extends the service life of the resin. An NGR official noted: "This means recycled pellets are no longer just a commodity." The system also integrates efficient degassing technology, effectively removing volatile contaminants to ensure the material is suitable for high-quality applications such as food-grade polyolefin film production.

NGR specializes in manufacturing recycling equipment for polyolefins, PET, and engineering plastics, while Leistritz is renowned for its twin-screw extruders and turnkey systems.
