Fluorinated resin recycling technology initiated.Asahi Glass Co., Ltd. Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, and Nittetsu Chemical Engineering Ltd., Tokyo, have reported their pioneering of a practical application technology for breaking down and recycling recycling, the process of recovering and reusing waste products—from household use, manufacturing, agriculture, and business—and thereby reducing their burden on the environment. of used fluorinated fluorinated material to which a fluoride has been added, e.g. water for human consumption treated as a prophylaxis against tooth decay. resin. Asahi Glass will collect the used fluorinated resin remaining from the manufacturing processes in its plant, then expand the decomposition/recycling plant to break down and treat the used fluorinated resin collected from its customers. A decomposition decomposition /de·com·po·si·tion/ (de-kom?pah-zish´un) the separation of compound bodies into their constituent principles. de·com·po·si·tion n. 1. and recycling division, within the Asahi Glass Chiba Plant, is scheduled to be launched in June. Fluorinated resin has been considered extremely difficult to recycle re·cy·cle tr.v. re·cy·cled, re·cy·cling, re·cy·cles 1. To put or pass through a cycle again, as for further treatment. 2. To start a different cycle in. 3. a. , and when considered non-recyclable, it has been treated as industrial waste. As a fluorinated resin manufacturer, Asahi Glass has been studying technology for recycling used fluorinated resin since 2001. Asahi Glass has successfully developed materials for decomposition equipment in collaboration with Nittetsu Chemical Engineering, from which the practical applications for the technology emerged. In the new process, collected fluorinated resin is broken down into calcium fluoride calcium fluoride n. A colorless powder, CaF2, used in emery wheels, carbon electrodes, and cements. , extracted, and then recompounded to produce fluorinated resin. |
