Production of high added value products from resin-bonded waste composite wood products
First Claim
1. A method of producing dry processed fibreboards from resin-bonded waste composite wood products, wherein said wood products are chemically treated in a pre-heater unit of a refiner system under super-atmospheric pressure in the presence of steam to disrupt adhesive polymer bonds, formed into fibres in a subsequent disc refiner unit of the refiner system and further processed by a dry process to form fibreboards with a reduction of resin consumption by the reactivation of resin in said wood products.

9. A method of producing a dry processed fibreboard comprising
(a) providing a resin-bonded waste composite wood product; -
(b) soaking the waste composite wood product in water to form a water-soaked waste composite wood product;
(c) feeding the water-soaked waste composite wood product into a pre-heater unit of a refiner system and chemically treating the water-soaked waste composite wood product in the pre-heater unit under super-atmospheric pressure in the presence of steam to disrupt adhesive polymer bonds;
(d) refining the treated waste composite wood product into recycled fibres in a subsequent disc refiner unit of the refiner system; and
(e) processing the recycled fibres into a fibreboard by a dry process with a reduction in resin consumption by the reactivation of resin in said wood product comprising mixing the recycled fibres with a bonding resin, drying the recycled fibres, forming the dried fibers into mats; and
hot pressing the mats to form the dry processed fibreboard. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
