Nigeria produces a large amount of polystyrene waste. According to the 2017 Ocean Atlas report, Nigeria ranks 11th in the world in terms of polystyrene pollution, posing a health risk to citizens and causing environmental damage.
For some countries with scarce resources and large populations, the best way to solve the problem of waste polystyrene is to carry out polystyrene recycling. Recycling is the reuse of resources. Instead of putting polystyrene into a landfill or burning it into a harmful gas, it is better to put it into a professional polystyrene recycling machine and turn it into a treasure.
As a polystyrene recycling specialist, the GREENMAX brand has three types of recycling machines, and the most popular is the polystyrene hot melting Mars-C200. This machine perfectly squeezes the air content of the polystyrene and compresses the polystyrene waste in a 90:1 ratio by screw technology to produce recycled polystyrene ingots.
Recycled polystyrene ingots can be made into photo-materials such as photo frames and park benches after being sold to some end markets. This is the recycling system for polystyrene.
Nigeria is marked as the world’s poor capital, with 87 million Nigerians, accounting for about half of the country’s population. Polystyrene recycling is the most suitable way to maintain the environment and make a profit.
