Waste carpet and felt scrap recycling apparatus and method thereof

A waste carpet and felt scrap recycling apparatus, comprising:

• a feeding unit configured to feed a cut scrap while forming a feeding path;
• a supply unit including a supply roller connected to the feeding path and configured to supply the scrap that passes the feeding unit along the feeding path and press the scrap;
• and
• a separation unit spaced apart from the supply unit, and configured to provide a frictional force to one surface of the scrap supplied from the supply unit through rotation of the supply roller of the supply unit and separate the scrap into fiber and resin,
• wherein the separation unit includes:
• a rotary body coupled to a rotary shaft and rotated in one direction;
• and a plurality of saw-tooth wires disposed on an exterior peripheral surface of the rotary body, for raking one surface of the scrap to separate the scrap into fiber and resin when the rotary body is rotated,
• wherein the saw-tooth wires are installed on the exterior peripheral surface of the rotary body at an installation angle of about 40 to 90 degrees relative to the exterior peripheral surface of the rotary body, and
• when the installation angle and a number of the saw-tooth wires are increased, then the scrap is produced with thinner fiber, and when the installation angle and the number of the saw-tooth wires are decreased, then the scrap is produced with thicker fiber.
