| 摘要 |
<p>The present invention concerns an automated method and an apparatus for separation of pipes comprising a tube pre-isolated on the outer side with a foamed material comprising CFC, by deforming the pipe. The pipes may be of different diameters and cross-sectional forms as well as bend pipes, pipes having T-pieces, elbows, etc. A substantial part of the CFC gasses is released during the pressing process and is removed by suction and captured in a filtering means. The apparatus for separating pipes comprises first and second pressing surfaces being arranged during the separation process so that they substantially are facing each other, means for moving the pressing members towards each other with a force sufficient to permanently deform a pipe placed in between, and suction means for removing CFC gasses being released during the separation process from the region around the pressing surfaces. The suction means are coupled to filtering means for capturing the CFC gasses. <IMAGE></p> |
