Enzymatic hydrolysis: a green approach to separate waste streams for recycling

Training material from the PLASTICE project explaining how enzymatic hydrolysis can separate cotton from polyester in mixed textile waste, enabling recovery and recycling of both components. It covers the technological process from fabric pretreatment to recovery of polyester and sugars, developed within a pilot plant for cotton/polyester textile blend recycling.
