Design and Fabrication of Low Cost Paper Recycling Equipment

Abstract

Paper has become a part of human life in various aspects and it is becoming even more popular now-a-days. With the increase in consumption of paper, the problem of raw material sources is emerging. This ultimately resulted in exploitation of natural resources. Recycling of paper has become vital, since the demand for paper has increased. A survey is conducted in G Pulla Reddy Engineering College (GPREC) campus and identified the sources of waste paper. In this paper, the design and fabrication of manually operated paper recycling equipment has been presented. Recycled paper has been extracted from the equipment. H2O2 as deinking agent, Guar Gum as adhesive and Boric powder as softening agent have been added to the pulp to enhance its quality. Cost analysis has been done to analyze the budget of the equipment.
