Prototype of a washing system

Washing system prototype

This is the latest prototype of our washing system to clean dirty 💩 plastic! With 150 bar of high-pressure water force all debris collected on the plastic is easily torn off. The dirty water gets filtered with a grease trap and a sand filter in order to have a closed-loop water system, reducing the amount of water required to clean plastic!
