Atmospheric Emissions from Plastics Industry

Both globally and in the US, greenhouse gases (GHG) released to the atmosphere are dominated by COj from combustion of fossil fuels. Most of this carbon load emitted [Pg.101]

TABLE 4.7 Energy-saving Opportunities in Plastics Processing [Pg.102]

Extruder drive system Improve drive mechanism by matching size and speed of motor. Investigate high-efficiency motors 20 [Pg.102]

Extruder barrel heating Insulate barrel in extruders or molding machines 15 [Pg.102]

Mold closing and clamping system Use variable hydraulic power to match load requirements. Explore the use of variable speed drives, variable displacement pumps, accumulators, and control systems 45 [Pg.102]


Converting the Pollutants into Resources Carbon dioxide is a pollutant of immediate interest, and most operations in the plastics supply chain emit CO into the atmosphere. Emerging research suggests that emissions from industry might be used to produce polymer raw materials ... [Pg.50]
