The CirCtex consortium is happy to present three final reports in conclusion of the project:
Thermal and Chemical recycling of textile waste
Edwin Maes – Centexbel / Marta Molist – Antex / Birgit Stubbe – Centexbel
CircTex provided a proof-of-concept for fully recyclable workwear within the NWE region by developing technologies for large-scale processing of PET workwear, which was validated and demonstrated in a closed chain pilot. The material and yarns were produced by means of a thermomechanical recycling process. After use the garments were disassembled, the polyester material, that should be as pure as possible were chemically recycled via a depolymerization process.
