In the face of severe challenges to energy and the environment, Chinese has recently adopted a comprehensive, coordinated, and sustainable scientific development concept as its guiding ideology, and formulated a medium and long-term energy science and technology development strategy and development plan to 2020.
The formulation of this energy environment development strategy also points the direction for the development of plastic pelletizer technology in China. It is imperative to explore a new development path for plastic pelletizer technology. Compared with other operating links in industrial and agricultural production, the task of energy saving and pollution prevention in the plastic granulator process is particularly urgent.
The operation of plastic granulators involves a wide range of national economy. It is not only an indispensable basic production link for a large number of industrial and agricultural products, plastic granulating machine are also large energy consumers in China, and their energy consumption accounts for about 12% of the total energy consumption of the national economy. . In addition, the pollution caused by the plastic granulator process is often an important source of environmental pollution in China. The progress of plastic pelletizer technology has a very close relationship with the development of the entire national economy.
First of all, the operation of plastic granulators involves a very wide range of fields, and China’s energy consumption of plastic pelletizers accounts for almost half of the total industrial energy consumption, which is almost 12% higher than that of the United Kingdom.
Second, the plastic granulator’s pollution to the environment is also quite serious. Among the most widely used types of conventional plastic pelletizer equipment, more than three-quarters of them are hot air plastic granulators. These types of plastic granulator equipment have a very serious environmental pollution, and are used for burning coal in plastic granulator systems. The transformation of the furnace has become an important issue to be solved.
Increasing the energy efficiency of the plastic granulator process and preventing pollution to the environment complement each other. Reducing the energy consumption of 100 million tons of standard coal will reduce CO2 and SO2 emissions by more than 64 million tons in China. The environmental benefits are significant.
Therefore, when exploring the new development path of plastic pelletizer technology, comprehensive consideration must be given to energy efficiency, environmental protection, and product quality in order to achieve comprehensive, coordinated, and sustainable development. To implement the development strategy of high-efficiency and green plastic granulators, we must first take the path of resource-saving development and change the single, extensive plastic granulator into a combination and intelligent plastic pelletizer.
