PET
Recycling
by EPC

EPC has many years of experience in the field of plastics recycling. The diverse input products, such as PET bottles and Tetra Paks, are sorted into unmixed output products with a new product character. These recycling processes have a positive energy balance, which can be presented advantageously both financially and in public relations work.

The holistic consideration of the production plant combines mechanical, physical and chemical separation processes in the ideal manner for the particular products. Particular attention is paid to optimizing the cost of the design and implementation of the plant infrastructure, which includes heat recovery as the basis for optimal process control. The high degree of automation in our plants provides the ideal basis for a separate energy management system according to DIN EN ISO 50001. We will be pleased to assist you with the implementation and realization of such a system. 

As EPC has all the relevant technical planning departments, the planning and implementation of the entire plant comes from just one source. This means that there is only one contact person, and the customer suffers none of the many interface problems that are otherwise typical. This leads to the shortest possible implementation and commissioning times.

rPET – Post-consumer recycled content polyethylene terephthalate (rPET) is plastic made from a used PET product that has been recycled into usable material. EPC can support you to revamp your existing PET plant into a rPET plant, or to start with a first demo plant.

Availability of various
modern recycling technologies

Due to the constant further development and support for the implementation of new and innovative processes and technical equipment, we are always up to date with the latest science and technology. This opens up the possibility for us to offer the ideal method for process and energy optimization in a customer-oriented manner through a specific selection of recycling technologies.

For example, EPC is able to provide different processing options for PET recycling on request. Whether the end product is amorphous, semi-crystalline or deep-treated – the customer decides on the desired final processing stage. EPC will be happy to advise you on the sensible use of the “sorting”, “regranulation” and “finishing” process stages.
