Design and implementation of a waste segregation and recycling line from polyester-reinforced PVC sheets
PRTR Call for Proposals Project
RENOLIT produces around 3,000t per year of reinforced polyester waste, of which it recycles 1,500t/year, and sends the other 1,500t to an external supplier for recycling. Existing recycling technologies achieve limited quality with residual polyester ranges of 0.4-0.8%. This project pursues the design of a plastic sheet waste recycling line, consisting of a first stage of edge crushing, second stage of shredding and third stage of separation columns, which will achieve a recycled product with a polyester range of only 0.15%-0.4%.

This will allow the recycled material to be reused in the extrusion process without generating waste, contributing to a more sustainable operation and with an optimal level of environmental protection.
