PET Waste Recycling

Due to the character of PET, it has to be processed by twin screws instead of single screw extrusion machine. EKA-PET takes the recycled material in clean& crushed PET scraps (size smaller than 5x5mm).

Common PET Products are:

Beverage bottles, transparent food containers, some cosmetic containers, etc.

Recycling Steps:

  1. The labels on the PET wastes need to be removed first.
  2. Make sure the PET waste is clean and doesn’t contain any contaminant. If there are dirty PET wastes, they need to be cleaned with a plastic waste washing line, because the contaminants will affect the quality of the recycled pellets.
  3. After feeding the clean PET waste into the compactor of a PET recycling machine, the flakes will be melted by the extrusion machine and cut into pellets by the pelletizer. The plastic pellets will be cooled with water, and these recycled pellets can be reused to produce PET products.
