Abstract: It is literature review paper on Development &
Fabrication of paper recycling machine. In every big
institution ,mainly educational institutions like schools or
colleges, generation of large quantity of waste papers is
quite apparent. And effective use of recycled paper is also
possible. So, instead of disposing off the waste papers into
trash, recycling them makes sense. This not only helps the
institute in cost saving but will also ensure its contribution
towards the protection of the environment. Designing
machine which integrate all the process in single unit,
which can be used in schools and colleges, ensures that a
cheap and non-complex method of production of paper
product is guaranteed. Accordingly design of the machine
unit has been prepared with all necessary component
specifications.

INTRODUCTION
Paper is one of the most important products ever invented
by man. The primary raw material for the paper production
is the pulp fibers obtained by complicated chemical
process from natural materials, mainly from wood. This
fiber production is very energy demanding and at the
manufacturing process there are many of the chemical
matters which are very problematic from the view point of
the environment protection.
Instead of throwing the waste paper into trash, why
don’t we recycle them in our houses. If we recycle these
wastages it can be used as some other purposes. ex: Tissue
paper, or some board (in small thickness). In our project
the recycle of paper is more and safe work and also less
cost of production. The main concept of this project is to
reduce the paper wastage in our houses with the help of
manual operated paper recycling machine. It is fully
mechanical operated, so there is no
need of electricity is used, low cost, maximum usage of
waste paper as in the form of recycled paper.
The primary source of raw material for production of
paper is vegetable fibers, obtained mainly from plants. To
ensure that the forest is not depleted of these
woods,
there is need to provide alternative source of raw materials,
this therefore leads to the invention of the process of
recycling.
Recycling, which is the extraction and recovery
of valuable materials from scrap or other discarded
IJERTV10IS010192
materials, is employed to supplement the production of
paper. The designing and fabricating of a used paper
recycling plant therefore a welcome development as it will
ensure that the source of raw material for paper production
is multiplied and also waste paper that could have
constituted into wastes are recycled for various productive
purposes.
Designing portable operated small-scaled paper
recycling plant, which can be used in schools and colleges,
ensures that a cheap and non-complex method of
production of paper product is guaranteed.

Working Principle and designing units are as follows:
Here the motor and heater will be provided with
electric current and starts working. The motor will start to
run by getting the input power. The pulley connected with the
motor drives the belt and transmits the power to the
sieve. The

sieve inside the hollow tank starts to rotate. The sieve will
crush the paper and the ingredients will be added to make it a
pulp. The pulp will be taken and mixed with Hydrogen
Peroxide for the quality. The pneumatic cylinder will be used
to make the paper into required shape and size. The bulk
of the parts of the plant were fabricated using mild steel,
this is because it is the easiest to be joined among all
other metals. It is a very versatile metal, necessitating its
use by many industries for fabrication of process unit
equipment. Apart from its versatility, it is also very
cheap and readily available compared to other metals.

boring, from which the cylindrical container, the rotor
blade, the container cover and the hydrapulper legs were
fabricated and assembled together. The schematic diagram
and the bird’s eye view of the hydrapulper assembly are
shown in Fig. 4.

In this paper Methodology and designing units are as
follows:
A. Pulping: Shredded paper along with warm
water is fed into the pulper. Pulper blends the
solution of paper and water along with binder
and deinking and whitening agents.In pulper
paper fibre are separated from each
other
and a thin solution of paper pulp is formed.
B. Forming: Pulp from the pulper flows down
through valve on the felt conveyor. Some
fraction of water is drained due to gravity
through felt mesh.
C. Press Rolling: Felt conveyor moves through
series of rollers and due to pressing by rollers
water is squeezed out. Sheet of recycled
paper will be formed. Roller pairs will be
followed by idler rollers. Only one roller will
be driver roller and rest will be driven due to
motion of felt.
D. Drying: After sheet formation felt will be
passed through a heated roller and then to air
blower section, which will evaporate the
water left in the sheet and finally dry sheet
will be obtained.

In this the hydrapulper was fabricated at ISOLTEC
Technical Workshop, Ibadan. The major processes
undertaken during the fabrication were grinding, marking
out, cutting, beating, welding, sharpening, drilling and

D. According to the Fabrication of Paper Recycling
Machine (IJSRD/Vol. 4/Issue 02/2016/199)
It has been conclude that paper recycling machine
consume less time to produce paper as compared with
manually operated machine.
This machine can be used in Gramudyog, home
and colleges for the production of paper from waste
paper which generated in that region.
There is only one operator is required to operate
the machine.
With the use of some easily available chemicals
and water, machine produces the printable paper sheets.
(Caustic soda, bleaching powder and starch)
The use of this project work is the small scale
producers of waste papers can contribute more than the
large scale producers so that they will be able to make
the nature go green and lessen the deforestation done for
the production of the paper.
The development of an automatic paperrecycling machine is much cheaper as compared to
machines in recycling industries.
The fabricated machine can serve dual
purposes, it can be manned permanently at a stationary
position or it could be shifted from one place to another
as the case may be.

Along with this technology in various
equipment’s used in paper recycling we are going to done
this pulp making in simple way in 3 steps.
In 1st step the defibration of paper is take place
with the help of paper grander.
In 2nd step the layer formation of pulp in A4 size

sheet is takes place in water tank. containing chemicals
viz. starch, alum, caustic soda, silicate, acid orange,
methyl violet etc.to obtain various grades of paper.
In 3rd step with the help of pressure punch
remove the water contain in paper layer and hang it for
drying in natural air or hot air.
