Abstract
Provided is a system and associated method for the degradation of plastic materials. The system includes a body, hopper, conveying system, drive system and a UV light assembly. The associated method includes providing a polymer material into the hopper, providing a solvent into the hopper, activating the drive system, and activating the UV light.
Claims14
A reactor system for the degradation of polymer materials, the system comprising:
- a hopper, for receiving input materials, the input materials including a polymer, a solvent, a metal oxide, and a base;
- a body, extending along a first axis, having a first end and second end, wherein the first end is coupled to the hopper, wherein the body may receive input materials introduced into the hopper;
- a conveying system for conveying the input materials along the body;
- a drive system for imparting motion to the conveying system;
- and
- an ultraviolet (“UV”) light for exposing the input materials of the body to UV radiation to degrade the input materials.
