Design of a Manually Operated Paper Recycling Machine.

Abstract

A manually operated paper-recycling machine was designed and fabricated.

This was done to enable waste paper conversion into useful product. The

fabricated plant consists of six major component units that include the disc

refiner, the hydropulper, the head box, the felt conveyor, the driers and the

rollers. From the results of experimental analysis carried out on the study, it

was discovered that for every [url removed, login to view] of used paper fed into the refiner, about

7000ml of water is required to defibre it, and about 0.2 kg of starch adhesive is

required. The calculated volume of the refiner, hydropulper and head box is

and [url removed, login to view]

respectively. The fabricated

machine is capable of producing 7.6 kg of recycled paper from 10 kg of used

paper.
