Material fit
PP lunch boxes, cups, trays and clamshells from collection and sorting facilities.
Post-consumer takeaway packaging carries oil, sauce and food residue that ordinary washing cannot lift. This line adds staged hot washing, dosing and odour control before drying.
Oil and protein residue sit inside the container wall and re-contaminate the wash water. Removing them needs temperature, chemistry and dwell time rather than more mechanical agitation.
PP lunch boxes, cups, trays and clamshells from collection and sorting facilities.
Cooking oil, sauce, food residue, printed labels, cutlery and metal closures.
Flakes with oil and odour reduced to a level your granulator and end customer accept.
The published LVKE washing-line series below is the starting point; hot-wash dosing and odour control are added per project.
| Model | Capacity (kg/h) | Water use (t/h) | Total power (kW) | Outlet moisture | Typical feed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| WL-500 | 500-800 | 3-5 | 80-120 | ≤2% | Small collection volumes |
| WL-1000 | 1,000-1,500 | 5-8 | 120-180 | ≤2% | Municipal sorting output |
| WL-2000 | 2,000-3,000 | 8-12 | 180-250 | ≤2% | Regional MRF fractions |
| WL-5000 | 3,000-5,000 | 12-20 | 250-300 | ≤2% | Large-scale packaging recovery |
Hot-wash temperature, detergent dosing and odour-control scope are set per project and are [To be confirmed] until your material is tested.
The first three stages do the work that a cold wash cannot.
Baled containers are loosened and metered.
Loose food residue is flushed before it enters the main bath.
Size reduction exposes the inner surface to the wash liquor.
Temperature and detergent lift oil from the polymer surface.
Clean water rinse, then density separation of sinks.
Moisture removed to the level your granulator accepts.
Hot-wash tanks, dosing units and odour control are engineered to the residue load found in your bales.
Usually not. Oil and protein residue need heated wash liquor and dosing; a cold mechanical wash leaves film on the flake surface.
Yes — odour control is configured as part of the line. The exact scope depends on the residue level in your feedstock and is confirmed after material testing.
The line uses a closed-loop water system with settling, filtration and treatment; discharge quality is designed around local requirements.
Yes. Many projects start on WL-500 or WL-1000 and add hot-wash capacity as volumes grow.
