The PET bottle washing machine is also called plastic float sink tank. The plastic beverage bottles are contained of two parts: PET bottle body and PP caps. The different materials should be processed by different ways. Therefore, plastic recycling plants should separate the PP from PET.

It can be completed by the differences in densities. The density of water is exactly 1g/cm, in the common plastic only PP and PE density less than 1.0, so into the water can float in the water is PP bottle cap, PET material because the density is greater than the water will sink to the bottom. So that’s why we also call a PET bottle washing machine a plastic floating separation tank.
