Recycling
cellulosic waste (such as used paper) limits deforestation and
checks pollution. In this jet age of technological explosion,
computers and photocopiers have increased the wastage of paper
manifold. TARA Mini Paper Recycling Plant is an appropriate system
to turn waste paper, cotton rags and other such waste into paper for
all purposes.
The
Technology
TARA Mini
Paper Plant facilitates production of half a kilo to 25 kilos of
quality paper every day, depending upon the capacity of the
equipment and the nature of work.
It is
quite simple to install, operate and maintain the machines. It
is easily affordable by one and all. In fact, there is a great
demand for such a neat, compact and portable model in schools,
art colleges and other educational institutions apart from small
hobby groups - especially the ethnic ones. Self help groups can
also be gainfully employed in paper and product manufacture.
The TARA mini paper recycling plants are specially designed to
create widespread awareness of how individuals and groups can
help save our environment while adding value. It is a complete
– yet simple – technology package with which even a child can
turn waste paper and cotton rags into useful and valuable
products. At the same time, it eliminates pollution. However,
newsprint cannot be recycled.
The process
Simple, safe but sophisticated
The raw material – that ranges from used paper to waste cloth –
is soaked in water and beaten to pulp in an electrically
powered mini-beater or hydrapulper. After few hours of beating
and further dilution with water, the pulp is ready for making
paper.
The pulp is transferred to a univat, mixed thoroughly and lifted
with a unique deckle and mould frame system designed to lay it
out in sheets of even thickness. The sheets are “couched”
(stacked) on top of each other and separated by thin cotton
felts. After squeezing out excess water by a screw paper, the
sheets of paper are separated and dried in the sun. The dry
paper is polished with a calendering machine or a hot iron,
after which it is ready for use for product manufacture or
printing.
The Equipment : Innovative, low cost and
efficient
Hollander Beater
This is used for making pulp by beating the cotton or denim
waste. It consists of a heavy, U-shaped trough in which a drum
with multiple knives rotates rapidly to cut and chop the raw
material.

Hydrapulper
This machine makes pulp from recycling of paper preferably
de-inked and
soaked in water.
Calendering Machine
With two chilled cylinders rotating in opposite directions, this
machine provides a smooth finish to the sheets of paper that
pass through them.
TARA also provides training and commissioning services with the
supply of equipment. q
