Abstract

AbstractIt is becoming increasingly important to be able to recycle mass‐produced products such as engine air filters. Different processes were tested to investigate whether it is possible to recycle the composite material. Thereby, comminution with cutting stress is particularly suitable for disintegration. Next on, the filter medium could be separated very well with the help of a zig‐zag separator. The sorting of polyurethan foam and polypropylene hard plastic could be achieved with a dense media separation. It became clear that the pretreatment, which is intended to liberate the material, has a significant influence on the sorting result and the purity of the products.
