The BIRD HUMBOLDT CENSOR Three-Phase Centrifuge provides an advanced method for the separation and sorting of plastics and for the separation and recovery of Nylon and other fiber from recycled carpet.

This system can be tailored to almost any plastic or carpet recycling problem.

By using separation liquids of different density, high purity plastic fractions or carpet fiber fractions (mainly nylon) can be obtained.

The high selectivity provides maximum recovery, while the liquid recycle loop minimizes waste discharge.

The plastic sorting system which is characterized by high separation performance is particularly suitable if the products have to be of highest purity, or whenever treated plastics differ substantially in particulate shapes and sizes.

The core unit of the process is the CENSOR sorting centrifuge, which simultaneously and selectively separates, washes and dewaters the products.

Systems tailored to almost any recycling problem can be achieved by the combination of several process operations.

Cost effective.

Low water requirement, low space requirement, simple operation, low energy demand, high availability.

Ecologically sound.

Minimal wastewater discharge
high selectivity means maximum recovery.
