One method to remove water from plastics after a wash plant and reducing moisture to 2 – 5% is the energy efficient squeezer dryer. This has been found effective for films and fibers.
What sets the squeezer apart is its grooved barrel, which utilizes shear heating and mechanical squeezing to eliminate moisture. A die-face cutter then processes the softened plastic, making it pelletizing-ready. This innovative design provides a significant advantage over costly hot air drying methods.
