Waste Paper Presses – find manufacturers and suppliers

Waste paper presses

More and more people are producing more and more waste. It is therefore important to process this as effectively, economically and quickly as possible. Waste paper presses, paper briquette presses and waste compactors provide valuable services in this respect. Which paper press is used depends on the type of waste, the quantity, the installation site, but also whether and how it is to be further processed. Waste paper, paper, cardboard, corrugated cardboard, etc. are pressed into solid cubes in a baling press, for example. Compaction is effected by a horizontal, electro-hydraulically driven pressing plate. Cuboid bales can be stacked and transported easily.

Press containers are suitable for large quantities. Here the original volume is reduced to a fifth. Transport costs are saved and the environment is protected. Very large start-up points have docking containers. Of course, wet paper can also be processed in this way. The prerequisites for this are a 5.5 kW high-voltage connection, sufficient space and a large waste volume.

Paper briquette press - environmentally friendly production of heating fuel?

Waste paper is inexpensively pressed into briquettes to be used for heating. Sounds good at first, the only problem is that very often they may not be used. Paper briquette presses are available in both mechanical and electrical form. For private use, these can be had for as little as 10 euros. Paper is collected, soaked in water overnight. Then the mass is filled into the pressing chamber of the press. A stirrup design ensures that as little force as possible is required. In the end, the briquettes must contain as little water as possible. The paper briquettes look like coal or wood briquettes and only need to be stacked for a few days to dry. Unfortunately, it is now illegal to use paper briquettes for side stoves or open fireplaces.

Paper briquettes are far less expensive than wood or coal briquettes and are not as heavy, but burn well. In addition, it eliminates waste. According to the First Federal Immission Control Ordinance (Erste BImSchV), this is prohibited. Ultimately, the Ordnungsamt decides which fuel may be used and which may not. According to the BImSchV, fireplaces in private households are considered small and medium-sized firing systems. These include fireplaces, stoves, central furnaces and individual furnaces with a rated output of less than 1,000 kilowatts. Why must paper briquettes not be burned in the fireplace? They do not burn completely and toxic carbon monoxide and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are produced during combustion. The residues are therefore harmful to the environment and health and cause strong odours.

Waste compactors

There are stationary and mobile compactors. Mobile versions compact the waste and recyclables and thus save on collection and personnel costs. Stationary waste compactors are designed for larger quantities of recyclables and waste up to 25 cc in volume. The waste paper press also belongs to the waste compactors. These can usually also be integrated into disposal and production processes.

Conclusion

Waste paper presses help to reduce waste to a minimum, thereby saving further costs and space. Some presses are even already integrated into garbage trucks. This allows the garbage truck to hold even more waste. The waste paper compactor is therefore a huge asset for both residential and commercial applications. Of course, these also need to be maintained and cleaned regularly. No matter how big or small, waste paper compactors and trash compactors are very sturdy and durable. Used ones are usually also still quite long efficient.
