Product Details
Decoating is the process by which paint, ink, paper, plastic and
oil are removed from the surface of a material usually metallic, to
enhance recyclables. When coated scrap aluminum is melted directly
in the furnace there will be substantial metal loss that will vary
depending on many factors including.
OVERSIZE SCRAP ALLOWED
- Input size allowed up to 250 mm
- The Decoating Kiln is designed with a special Hengyang shape paddle
to optimize the scramble and skim of the scrap and to remove
efficiently the totality of the organics presence
- The More The Better! Thanks to the oversize scrap input, the system
has a major organics laps effect on the surface and therefore a
major organics evaporation (= more natural fuel)
- Less energy consumption in the Shredding phase as there’s no need
to “polverize” or heavily reduce the size of the scrap
- Less Natural Gas consumption thanks to the elevated presence of
organics in the process
Type of coating | Complex and multilayered coating can accelerate metal loss |
Quantity of coating | As the quantity of coating present on the scrap increases than
generally the amount of metal loss increases. |
The thickness of scrap | Thin scrap exhibit a higher metal loss than thick scrap for the
same percentage of coating. |
More than 90 % of decoating is currently carried out in rotary
kiln. The choice of rotary kiln is between parallel and the counter
flow type. Hot gas flows through the kiln under controlled
condition of temperature and oxygen content. The kiln exit gas
containing evolved combustible is passed to an after burner and is
combusted. A significant proportion of the combustion product is
returned to the kiln for the processing, thus creating a
recirculation loop. The most obvious choice is counter flow type
kiln. In counter flow kiln the hot gases from the afterburner
enters the kiln at the metal discharge end and flows counter to the
scrap movement. This ensures the highest temperature and oxygen are
in contact with the scrap exactly where it is needed. Consequently,
counter flow kiln produce very good quality decoating. As the gas
travels from discharge to charge end of the kiln there is an
accompanying reduction in temperature excursion and removing the
necessity for water sprays. Counter flow kiln do not require an
internal refractory lining
