In this project we will investigate and demonstrate the feasibility of a new technology for the plastics sector, which offers the potential to both halve the electricity consumption required to produce extruded plastics, whilst also doubling throughput per machine, helping to meet the Government's _Clean Growth Strategy_ targets. This project is to undertake a feasibility study in order to understand how our microwave selective heating principle used in batch processing injection moulding form (using a separate microwave heating chamber to heat each individual shot of polymer for each single moulding) could be adapted to the completely different microwave technical requirement to introduce controlled constant microwave energy exposure to a continuous feed of polymer materials within an extruder.

在这个项目中，我们将调查和展示一项塑料行业新技术的可行性，该技术有可能将生产挤出塑料所需的电力消耗减半，同时每台机器的吞吐量也增加一倍，有助于实现政府的“清洁增长战略”目标。该项目将进行可行性研究，以了解我们的微波选择性加热原理如何用于批量加工注塑成型（使用单独的微波加热室加热每个单独的聚合物注塑成型），可以适应完全不同的微波技术要求，以在挤出机内连续喂入聚合物材料中引入可控的恒定微波能量。
