ABSTRACT:
A system for recovery of plastic material floating on the surface of water in a settling basin is disclosed. The system includes a transportable trailer having a hoist extendable from the trailer. Additionally, the trailer includes a floating boom structure extendable between the shoreline of the basin for dividing the basin into a first surface are a and a second surface area both containing floating plastic material. The trailer further includes a pump suspendable from the hoist for pumping the plastic material from the settling basin to a transportable container positioned on the shore of the settling basin. The pump includes an intake base that is positioned at a predetermined distance below the surface of the settling basin to aid in the operation of the system. The plastic recovery system of the present invention provides a method to quickly and efficiently recover plastic materials floating on the surface of the water while increasing the safety to the operator of the system during its operation.
