    Cork separation (natural corks vs. synthetic corks)

    Hi, thanks for your response. Indeed liquid H and He wouldn’t be a cost effective solution. The dimensions can vary, so I should try the air curtain to see if it’s failproof. How would the quicksand in air setup look like? Have you got an example of that?

    Cork separation (natural corks vs. synthetic corks)

    I was also thinking about this, but in ethanol the synthetic corks would float with about 30% of their volume beneath the surface and the natural corks 25%. As the dimensions are not that stable, I doubt this would be failliet. Nevertheless, I could try.

    Cork separation (natural corks vs. synthetic corks)

    That would work, but I don’t know about any additve that could make the density of water or any other liquid as low as 200 mg/cm^3.

    Cork separation (natural corks vs. synthetic corks)

    That’s something I have been thinking about as well. However, as they are cilinder shaped I think this might give some difficulties.

    Cork separation (natural corks vs. synthetic corks)

    That’s indeed a small mistake, thanks for pointing out.

    Cork separation (natural corks vs. synthetic corks)

    Hi all, At my workplace we have a waste stream that includes both natural and synthetic corks. The synthetic corks we can further process, so the natural corks have to be selected out. We have two Polish workers who are able to do this just by sight, 8 hours a day. However, we tried to put...
