  • Abstract

    The main objective of this work is to solve the issues of plastic waste management (PWM) in developing countries by designing a shredding machine. This function is used for many applications like business planning as well as industrial applications with zero environmental impacts, which are used in processes in supply chain and planning. Also, the machine and composites are optimized to find better material for both shredder and wastage. Shredder machine is developed by assembling all manufactured parts which can shred 1 Kg plastic, Wood, Glass and Aluminum at once. Also testing of innovative machine by means of crush particles produced from wastages to recycle it. Moreover, the shape of plastics is very different from their equivalents while it is used in large-scale mass recycling, energy difference recycling highlights the environmental benefit of using plastics, where the SM may indicate a potential function for recycling purposes. Experimental validation of the main component is needed for finding stress & deformation. Also, the optimization solution by finding better suitable material for different components of shredder to withstand under several operating conditions is done. Work methodology depends upon the type of wastages to make composites and better suitable material for the shredder components to sustain under the heavy operating conditions.
