چکیده
In this paper, a laboratory-scale (small) Steam Boiler was designed and developed for small-scale polyurethane recycling machine. A small-sized machine the of foams to reduce wastes in production industries also reuse old discarded after their useful lives. It has been observed from studies carried out many foam manufacturing that generated various plant operations are enormous. Also, (foam) products everywhere our homes, automobiles always These need be recycled other them not get back into ecosystems thereby polluting environment because non-biodegradables can remain very long time. However, only few companies with strong financial capabilities able embark on venture high costs machinery large quantities chemicals involved. The deter cottage participating foams. Therefore, there is develop waste machines involved allowing more participation process. boiler used generate high-temperature steam curing better bonding shredded heating chamber consists boiler, pressure hose enable passage molding box. total volume 2.5 Litres. outlet temperature 135 0C 25 psi pressure. heat rate 1.52 kJ/s. were cure bonded addition compared without steam. percentage difference I.F.D, Resilience, Tensile Stress percent elongation +0.56, -2.00, +85.45, +68.39 respectively.

Waste Minimization Strategy: Flexible Polyurethane Foam Manufacture
Methylene chloride and CFCs are used as auxiliary blowing agents in the manufacture of flexible polyurethanefoams and are promptly emitted during the manufacturing processes.The concentrationof the auxiliary blowing agent are quite low due to the accepted practice of using large volumes of air to lower the ambient concentration of toxic isocyanates (a key chemical in the urethane reaction seque...
متن کاملRecycling of Waste Epoxy-Polyester Powders for Foam Production
This paper proposes a new foaming technology (solid-state foaming) to produce structural foams from waste thermosetting resins. The proposed technology is easy and does not require specific and expensive equipments. Solid tablets are produced by cold compaction of resin powder, and foam by heating in an oven. Composite foams can be produced by mixing fillers and resin powder before the cold com...
متن کاملRelease of CFC-11 from disposal of polyurethane foam waste.
The halocarbon CFC-11 has extensively been used as a blowing agent for polyurethane (PUR) insulation foams in home appliances and for residential and industrial construction. Release of CFCs is an important factor in the depletion of the ozone layer. For CFC-11 the future atmospheric concentrations will mainly depend on the continued release from PUR foams. Little is known about rates and time ...
متن کاملSimulation of a Steam-Boiler
In this paper, we describe the implementation and usage of a simulation with graphical visualization for a steam-boiler [Abri94]. The simulation imitates the behaviour of the steam-boiler and can be controlled using a simple ASCII protocol. It reacts to defined commands and sends information about its state every five seconds. Furthermore, we describe the options available, the protocol which f...
