Make, Model & Classification
| Name | ZERMA Granulator |
| Model | GSH 350-500 Heavy Duty |
| Classification | Shredding/Flaking/Grinding |
Operations
| Description or Purpose | The wide range of rotors and hopper styles allow the GSH machines to be tailored to almost every application in the plastic recycling field.The GSH 350 and 500 granulators are mainly used as central granulators for in house recycling applications to process thick walled parts in one step or as a second step granulator after a shredder to reach higher throughput rates. When used to grind light materials, such as bottles the throughput can be greatly increased with the addition of a ZERMA force feeding device. For abrasive, contaminated or highly filled materials the machine can be equipped with special wear protectors. |
| Operating Principles | Heavy Duty Granulator • Knives are adjusted outside of the machine • Specially developed deflector wedge • Wide choice of rotors • Well thought out housing design • Strong Welded Steel construction • Oversized outboard bearings |
| Additional Information | The heavy duty granulators of the GSH 350 and 500 series offer a wide array of different rotor designs with widths ranging from 500 mm to 1000 mm with a diameter of 350 and 500 mm respectively. The completely welded heavy steel construction is designed to withstand the most demanding and universal applications. Rotor bearings, knife mounts and rotor shaft are oversized. The standard V-cut creates a high quality regrind with a very low percentage of fines in the output material. The removable third stator blade acts as a deflector wedge and allows quick adjustment. |

Approvals Related to Use of Output
Important Note on Composting in NSW
In NSW, applying waste to land – including a processed waste such as compost - or using it as a fuel may trigger various regulatory requirements. Depending on the proposed use you may be required to comply with a Resource Recovery Exemption or need to hold an environment protection licence, and pay the waste levy.
While there is a Compost Exemption (2014) it is important to note that drying or dehydrating food waste, or any other compostable waste, is specifically excluded from consideration under this exemption. Drying or dehydrating equipment uses externally supplied energy to heat and ventilate food waste or any other compostable waste in order to rapidly dry the waste material over a short time period (typically 24 to 48 hours), either with or without the addition of an inoculum. If you are interested in this type of equipment you should refer to the resource recovery exemptions for information on lawful use of outputs.
If it is intended to use the material as a fuel, it must comply with the NSW Energy from Waste Policy Statement. http://www.epa.nsw.gov.au/waste/140056enfromwasteps.htm
