Abstract
A method for recycling a heat exchanger includes spreading the outer periphery of a metal pipe of a heat exchanger in a predetermined direction, and placing the heat exchanger in the rotary space of a crushing roll which rotates around the axis thereof while slanting at a predetermined angle in order to separate the heat exchanger to the metal pipe and radiating metal fins. The crushing apparatus is provided with a crushing assembly which incorporates a processing space extending at a downward slant at a predetermined angle, an inlet, and a crushing roll applied to the heat exchanger which is rotated about the axis thereof in the processing space and moving down the same.
