In this study, we carried out the research on triboelectrostatic separation for heavy group plastics (PET, PVC) recovered from wet gravity separation. From the research on charging characteristic for the choice of charging materials, it was found that PP was optimum charging material to make high charging amount with opposite polarity for PET and PVC of heavy group. Therefore, we manufactured a charger of cyclone type using PP material for separation of PET and PVC. At optimum test conditions that used PP cyclone charger developed in this study, we developed a triboelectrostatic separation technique that can separate PET plastic up to grade of 98.5% and recovery of 86.2%. We established new separation technology that could recycle the PET and PVC heavy group plastics recovered from wet gravity separation.

The study on the recovery of Nylon from a radiator of End-of-Life Vehicle was conducted by using triboelectrostatic separation technique. For the effective separation of the sample(Nylon, PP glass), charge polarity and amount of each sample with various charging materials have been investigated by faraday cage. And then, charging material was selected as carrying out basic separation experiments with materials that can be possible to polarize samples. Finally, the continuos type triboelectrostatic separator was developed with selected charging material and the recovery possibility of the sample was confirmed as carrying out various separation experiments.

In this study, we carried out the research on triboelectrostatic separation for materials separation of PET & Nylon recovered to waste plastic beer bottle. From the research on charging characteristic for choice of charging materials, it was found that PMMA was optimum charging material to make high charging amount with opposite polarity for PET & Nylon in waste plastic beer bottle. Therefore, we manufactured a charger of pipe line and cyclone type using PMMA material for separation of PET and Nylon. At optimum test conditions that used PMMA pipe line and cyclone charger developed in this study, we developed a triboelectrostatic separation technique that can separate PET plastic up to grade of 99.6% and recovery of 88.2%. We established new separation technology that can recycle the PET and Nylon recovered from waste plastic beer bottle.

Due to the environmental problem caused by plastics largely used in various fields, the importance of recycling is being emphasized. A research on material separation of ABS and PS mixed plastic waste, using a triboelectrostatic separator, was carried out for recovery the ABS. As a results of research on charging characteristic for choosing charging material, it was confirmed that ABS was optimum charging material for a tribo-charger in the material separation of ABS and PS. In the material separation using ABS charger, ABS grade of 99.5% and recovery of 92.5% were achieved at 20 kV, splitter position +2 cm from the center and 30% relative humidity. Therefore, material separation technique for recycling ABS and PS mixed plastic waste was established.

In this study, waste car tau lamps that usually gets incinerated or buried has been recovered during the dispose process in order to increase the recycling rate of waste cars and the material separation research was performed by applying triboelectrostatic separation method. After a series of charging characteristic test, PMMA materials was confirmed of being an effective charging material for waste car tail lamp material separation, a cyclone charger using PMMA material for continuous process was developed. In optimum test conditions using triboelectrostatic separator developed in this study, high quality PMMA material with recovery rate of 99.0% and 90.2% was achieved from the waste car tail lamp. Therefore, a material separation technology that can recycle tail lamps of waste cars has been established.

A research on material separation of EVA and PET mixture plastic waste using a triboelectrostatic separator has been carried out. It was found that PP was the best charging material to give the highest charge on the surface of EVA and PET mixture plastics with an opposite polarity. Therefore, a charger of pipe line type using PP material was manufactured for separation of EVA and PET mixture plastic waste. At optimum test conditions that used PP cyclone charger developed in this study, we could separate out PET with a glade of 98.7% and a recovery of 89.7%.

Triboelectrostatic separation of mixed three kinds of plastics, PVC, PET and PMMA, in the range of similar gravity has been performed through a two-stage separation process. Polypropylene (PP) and high-impact polystyrene (HIPS) were found to be the most effective materials for a tribo-charger in the separation of PVC, PET and PMMA. In the 1st stage using the PP cyclone charger, PVC grade and recovery depended considerably on the air velocity (10 m/s), the relative humidity (<30%), the electric field (>200 kV/m) and the splitter position (+2 cm from the center) in the triboelelctrostatic separator unit. At an optimum condition a PVC grade of 99.6% and a recovery of 97.5% was achieved. In the 2nd stage using the HIPS cyclone charger, a PMMA grade of 98.3% and a recovery of 97.0% was obtained under the conditions of 10m/s air velocity, over 250 kV/m electric field, central splitter position and less than 40% relative humidity.
