Equipment for the efficient recycling of PET

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is a commonly used plastic, particularly in the production of beverage bottles. However, the improper disposal of PET bottles leads to environmental pollution and the waste of valuable resources. This company’s equipment addresses this challenge by enabling the efficient recycling of PET. Through advanced technologies and processes for the thermal separation of substances that are difficult to handle, the equipment effectively transforms PET waste into high-quality recycled PET (rPET). These rPET materials can then be used in the production of new PET products, reducing the need for virgin plastic and minimizing the environmental impact. The company’s technology also enables the production of bioplastics, such as polylactic acid (PLA) and polyethylene furan-2,5-dicarboxylate (PEF).
