RECYCLING OF PET WASTE BOTTLE TO
TEXTILE VALUABLE PRODUCT.
By –Kaushal Shah
INTRODUCTION :-
 Polyethylene terephthalate, commonly known
as “PET” in packing industry and polyester in
textile industry.
 Polyester is made from petroleum, that creates
damaging environmental impacts during
extraction process.
 Recycling is most viable approach to reduce
solid waste.
 Therefore, The world’s most recyclable
polymer is “POLYESTER” .
CONSUMPTION OF PET
91%
8%
1%
World wide consumption.
Plasatic other than PET
Pet Consumption
PET which is getting recycled
CONSUMPTION OF PET
The worldwide consumption of the
bottle grade PET was 18 million
metric tonnes.
It represents almost 8% of total
demand of standard plastic in 2015.
Out of these, only 9% of PET is
getting recycled.
What is “PET”?
 PET known by the trade names Mylar, Dacron and terylene.
 Have high crystalline melting temperature at 260°C.
 It has outstanding crease resistance, good abrasion resistance.
 It can be blended with cotton and other cellulosic fibers to give better feel.
Application:- Apparel purpose
In industries
Manufacturing of container
Production of disposal.
Structure of PET
PET FEATURES
High Tensile strength
Good Abrasion resistance
High crystallinity
Cheaply available
 Easily recyclable
Tearing strength
Less shrinkage
AIM :-
To understand the properties of the
recycle polyester fibre in the form of fabric
as well as yarn against the virgin polyester
yarn.
To reduce PET waste disposal which has
created serious environmental and
economic concern.

Problem regarding PET
waste.
PET waste disposal has created
serious environmental concerns.
As PET waste is solid waste, so it
takes more space.
It is non-biodegradable, in nature.
It causes serious land filled
problems.
Landfill issue :-
Plastic is non biodegradable waste,
they are accurate over time in land
filled.
1 billion plastic are trash for one
year.
Only 1% plastic are recycled
remaining are land filled.
About 92% are overall plastic in
land filled.
Solution to all stated problems
 Plastics are a versatile recyclable material.
 Recycling is most viable approach to reduce solid
waste.
 It can be valuable asset to your corporate Green
recycling program.
 Creating new materials from existing materials
uses significantly less energy than using raw
materials.
 So it is necessary to recycle PET wastages.
Polyester
{ Physical Properties }
Virgin Polyester
 Moisture regain values of virgin
polyester of 150 denier is 0.040%.
 Bending length results of virgin
polyester fabric of 150 denier is
2.75
 Abrasion resistance: 1- 7.83 %
 Tenacity:23.55
 Tearing strength 150 denier:-
Wrap:-2986.6
Weft :-3408.6
Recycled Polyester
 Moisture regain values of recycled
polyester of 150 denier is 0.045%
 Bending length results of recycled
polyester fabric of 150 denier is 2.1
 Abrasion resistance: 1- 1.16%
 Tenacity:20.24
 Tearing strength 150 denier:-
Wrap:-2858.6
Weft :-2986.6
Comparison Of Chemical Properties.
Virgin Polyester
Dye ability (corallene
yellow):- 46.26
Crystalline region:- 88%
Amorphose region:-
12%
Recycle Polyester
Dye ability (corallene
yellow):- 32.54
Crystalline region:- 82%
Amorphose region:-
18%
Company making use of recycled PET
bottles to polyester fibre.
 Polygenta ltd- Nasik
 Reliance industry limited(RIL)- Naroda
 Arora fibre- Dadra & Nagar Haveli
 Panchal plastic- Malad West, Mumbai
 Krishna Plastic- Baroda
Many more industries are carry out this recycling process in many different
ways and they are successful too.
Conclusion
In recent our institute(DKTE) has carried out experimental
work on the recycling of PET flask bottles. This are following
results:-
 The recycled polyester has increased amorphous region compared to the
virgin polyester.
 Improvement in dyeing and physical properties of fibre.
 It will surely solve the problem regarding waste and garbage's of PET
bottles.
 It also solve land filled problem.
