Description
In the process of waste plastic recycling, it is assumed that the waste plastics such as PP, PE, PET and other waste plastics in the battery are sorted and collected, further cleaned to remove impurities and broken into small pieces. Then the cleaned waste plastic is heated and melted and turned into new plastic particles through the extrusion mechanism. Finally, the recycled plastic pellets are processed into new plastic products through injection molding, extrusion and other processes. Only electricity is consumed during the entire recycling process.
The collection and transportation of this product is not taken into account in the respective marketing activities. This dataset is suitable for the recycling process of dismantled waste plastics in retired lithium iron phosphate batteries.
Activity Description
This dataset represents the treatment of waste plastic materials from retired lithium iron phosphate batteries in the fields of power, consumer electronics and energy storage via the waste plastic recycling process. It includes energy (electricity) consumption and product output (recycled plastics).
