Domestic water-based ink applications are narrow

“Compared with foreign countries, the scope of application of domestic water-based inks is still very small. The application of traditional inks places great pressure on the environment and aggravates environmental pollution.”

Yuan Jiansui believes that ink can completely replace the ink and completely reach the speed and quality of the solvent. After printing and changing ink, the cost can be reduced by 35% to 40%, which is very impressive. Even if solvent ink is used, the solvent should be recovered. According to relevant foreign laws and regulations, if the manufacturer does not have a solvent recovery device, there will be heavy fines. Although there are no relevant laws and regulations in our country, companies should proceed from their own economic interests and recycle solvents. One is to reduce the volatilization of solvents and pollute the atmosphere, and the other is to recover a minimum of 0.8 tons of solvent per ton of ink. 10 tons of at least 8 tons of solvent recovery, the former mixed solvent average price of 10,000 / ton, so a month can save 8 tons, it is 80,000 yuan. This kind of equipment produces about 50,000 to 60,000 distillation machines in Shanghai, and the total cost of other auxiliary equipment and installations is about 20,000 to 30,000, with a total of less than 100,000. The cost can be recovered within one month, and the residual solvent is eliminated.
