The paper mill waste shredder plays a crucial role in improving waste treatment at paper mills. As many domestic mills face high costs for raw pulp derived from tree bark and wood, there has been a shift toward using agricultural waste biomass—mainly rice straw and wheat straw—for papermaking. These materials must be reduced to pieces measuring less than 5cm to ensure efficient filament drawing and pulp processing. The shredder efficiently handles this size reduction, optimizing the waste treatment process and overall production efficiency in paper mills.
After the initial size reduction, paper mills typically send the pulp to third-party companies for further processing. These companies further reduce the collected straw raw materials into pieces measuring less than 5cm through secondary shredding. The main equipment used is a double-shaft shearing shredder or crusher, which provides large processing capacity, small output particle size, and the ability to handle both dry and wet materials without clogging. This ensures the equipment operates stably and reliably, supporting continuous, stable operation of the entire production line, improving production efficiency, extending equipment operating time, and increasing output.
Following these shredding stages, the paper mill waste shredding and sorting system proceeds through several steps: primary shredding, sorting, secondary shredding, magnetic separation, impurity removal, and forming.
Paper mills generate various types of waste, including twisted ropes and pulp residues. Improper storage and handling of these materials can result in significant environmental pollution. The stranded rope contains substantial amounts of iron wire, often entangled with plastic, which makes direct separation and recycling difficult. Shredding the ropes before separation enables more efficient recycling of both plastic and iron wire.
