Abstract

Electrostatic separation of granular materials is a good and innovative solution for the recycling of plastic materials from waste of electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE). These WEEEs, which contain a wide variety of materials whose treatment and recycling require the development of new electrostatic separation technologies. This installation has allowed the separation of several plastic granular mixtures. The preliminary experiments were carried out to determine the influence of some parameters on the installation. With the help of these results, it was possible to model the separator produced by the design of experiments methodology, using MODDE 5.0 software, which allowed us to separate granular mixtures with maximum recoveries and high purity greater than 90%.
