Classifying and processing post-consumer plastic scrap materials for subsequent utilization. Post-consumer plastic scrap of various kinds, such as colored HDPE, natural HDPE, green PET and clear PET are separating into constituent fractions, and each fraction is separately reduced to flakes. At least some of the fractions are separately washed to remove fragments of labels or other foreign matter previously in place on the plastic bottles or other containers making up those scrap constituents.

Method and apparatus for separating and classifying scrap plastic

A process and apparatus for receiving and reducing co-extruded car trim into chips and for separating the components of the chips into a metal fraction and a plastic fraction is provided; the chips are immersed in a heated liquid medium which subsequently separates the plastic from the metal with agitation and heat. The plastic and the metal are finally classified by their respective densities in a liquid upflow column.
