How to Avoid Horse Laminitis and Founder by Dr. Douglas Stewart / Pets and Animals community [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] RTT Systemtechnik GmbH in Germany, also a partner in the WRAP program, identified the different near-infrared (NIR) spectra for copolymer and homopolymer HDPE for use in its Unisort NIR automated mechanical separation system. New processes for food-grade recycled HDPE by Schut, Jan H. / Plastics Technology Early consideration was given to alternative mechanical separation and membrane filtration options for replacing the existing mechanical separation plant consisting of 20 centrifuges before a final decision in favour of replacement of the 'old work horses' by more modern high performance nozzle centrifugal separators was taken.
