#Foam6 Recycling

Foam Densifier is a good helper for recycling foam waste and environmental improvement

The natural environment is an external material condition for human survival. With the continuous development of the economy, mankind realizes the importance of environmental protection, because it is not only related to our generation but also related to the survival of future generations. Since the 1980s, my country has embarked on the journey of an industrialized power. While the economy is developing rapidly, it is also at the expense of the environment and natural resources. With the popularization of the Internet and e-commerce, foam#6, a cheap packaging material with excellent performance, is in short supply, and people habitually discard it, causing huge damage and pollution to the soil, water sources, and air.

Waste foam has become the main source of solid waste, so people pay more and more attention to the recycling and treatment of waste foam. Foam#6 has excellent impact resistance and cushioning properties, strength, and toughness, heat insulation properties, acid and alkali resistance, lightweight, waterproof, anti-bacterial, and other functions. Its appearance is clean, easy to color, easy to distinguish, and easy to shape, so it is widely used It is used for the shockproof of instrument electronics, packaging, and heat insulation, and heat preservation in the construction industry. However, because foam is difficult to degrade, it will cause "white pollution" after being discarded. Its recycling can not only eliminate "white pollution", but also save resources. There are two main ways to recycle polystyrene foam:

1. Leftover materials produced by EPS production plants;

2. Various EPS polystyrene foam packaging materials recovered in the recycling station. Recycling is not just a technical issue. It is important to understand that recycling refers to ensuring the sustainable development of the national economy and the coordinated development of the economy, resources, and environment.

The landfill is a traditional and outdated waste foam treatment method. Intech Environmental is committed to recycling and processing foam waste. It uses its advanced foam packer, foat machine, and foam densifier to greatly reduce the storage space of solid foam. At the same time, it can effectively compress it to 50 and 90 times the original volume, saving transportation costs, and this foam waste can be pelletized for the manufacture of environmentally friendly photo frames and plastic packaging new products, so as not to reduce environmental pollution, but also Improved economic efficiency, with multiple objectives.

A new foam#6 recycling project has launched

Nancy Abrams, a member of the Boluo foam#6 recycling partnership Steering Committee, said that the plant spent a lot of energy and years planning to create the site to treat foam#6 in an environmentally friendly way. (Nancy Abrams)

Abrams said the development of small houses and communities, the beauty of Greensboro, and the emerging ecological and environmental management of Greensboro worked together to achieve this goal.

Foam#6 recycling project can be achieved through grants and donations from individuals and churches. Foam densifier is a machine that concentrates foam#6 into bricks, which can be sold to manufacturers and converted into new products. Stored at 1310 W. Gate City Blvd Tiny House Community Development Office, people can also put foam#6 in a large visible trash can.

Abrams said: "for eight to ten years, the congregation in town has been collecting foam#6 and transporting it to the landdeman where the foam#6 recycling station is located."

Now, all this can be done in Greensboro.

According to the new eco website, a budget of $44100 has been set, including the purchase and installation of densimeters and promotional signs.

The steering committee plans to show the community how to recycle foam#6 easily and effectively at the upcoming "foam#6 play" from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday.

Novel coronavirus pneumonia will be accepted by the guests on Saturday, but the opening ceremony of the committee will be a friendly opening ceremony for the new crown pneumonia. The guests will show you where to get off the bus from November. Participants can also see a product made of recycled foam#6 in a manufacturer in New Jersey - photo frames and decorative strips.

Why Need to Replace Wood with Plastic Foam ?

The reason for looking for alternative materials is that the large use of wood is a great waste of forest resources. Although the price of wood is cheap, its turnover rate is low, which increases not only the cost of construction site, but also the waste of forest resources. 

Especially in the current construction market, the building height is mostly more than 20 floors. Even if the best wood plywood is used on the market, at least two or three sets of wood plywood should be purchased. Although the investment at one time is lower than the new building formwork, it actually increases total cost added.

On the other hand, the social development also makes people have higher requirements for the flatness of the wall. The wood formwork can be seen in the past at the beginning of several layers of the wall. Once the number of uses becomes more, the smoothness of the wall can not be guaranteed at all, while the plastic foam can achieve a very smooth effect.

It has become an irreversible trend that building wood is replaced by new materials and “Replacing wood with plastic foam” is no longer just talking. In Europe, America, Japan, South Korea and some other countries with relatively developed plastic industry, plastic foam building has been used in large-scale production for decades. While effectively saving forest resources, the significance of foam recycling is greater. It not only reduces the environmental pollution caused by foam as discarded garbage, but also improves the utilization rate of reusing.
