Step 2: Shredding
The basis for the most plastic recycling processes is shredding the sorted plastic waste into small granulate. The Johannplasto shredder can shred plastic waste up to a thickness of 5mm, does its job very quietly and lets rain up to 5kg of plastic granulate (5 or 8mm) per hour. 💪
It was a nice journey to build this machine, big thanks to my brother @stefanpeterberns who made the electronics inside the box and to the PreciousPlastic-Community for inspiration and help!
Let’s shred plastic waste!♻️⚙️🎉

Step 1: Collecting:
👀Watch out for the recycling codes
♻️2 (HDPE), ♻️4 (LDPE),
♻️6 (PS) & ♻️5 (PP)
🧽After cleaning and sorting, the plastic waste is ready for shredding -> The basis for plastic recycling💪
👉Collection points for Dresden soon on johannplasto.de

The e-waste problem:
Mining Copper – Chile: high water consumption, natural damage.
Mining Tantalum & Cobalt – Congo: slave labor.
Mining Tin – Indonesia: Soap deposits: Floating destroys coral reefs, fish and soils, deaths from landslides.
Mining Rare earths: dysprosium, neodymium, praseodymium, yttrium: High energy consumption to get them out of the minerals.
Manufacturing: The working conditions in the manufacturing companies are inhumane (Child labor, extremely high work pressure, suicides).
Short lifespan of most electronic devices…

Manufacturing: The working conditions in the manufacturing companies are inhumane (Child labor, extremely high work pressure, suicides).
Short lifespan of most electronic devices (Average duration of smartphones: 2,5 years, 1,4 billions smartphones per year).
Only about 10% gets recycled.
Most electronic waste is exported where it is a massive threat to people and the environment.
E-waste is the world's largest growing garbage dump: 50 million tons in 2018 worldwide, increasing every year.

Plastic pollution problem:
In the last 10 years we have made more plastics than we did in the last 100 years.
Half of those plastic products are single-use plastics.
About 10 million tons of plastic is dumped into world's oceans every year.
Over 80 percent of ocean plastic comes from the land (Dumps->Rivers->Ocean)
Fish and birds takes small pieces of plastic and microplastics directly, with mostly serious consequences.
The ratio of microplastic to plankton is already about 1:2.
Worldwide we recycle less than 15%.
