PDF training material from the PLASTICE project demonstrating the scale-up of the enzymatic hydrolysis process for mixed cotton/polyester textile waste, from lab to pilot scale. It covers the full demonstration chain: textile sorting, shredding and alkaline pretreatment, enzymatic hydrolysis, polyester recovery, and yarn/fabric production to close the fibre-to-fibre recycling loop.

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.

PDF deliverable from the PLASTICE project (WP5) reporting on the chemical recycling of cotton/polyester textiles via enzymatic hydrolysis. It covers NIR-based sorting of textile waste, lab-scale optimisation of the enzymatic process, the pilot-scale demo, and the spinning and knitting of recovered polyester into new fabrics, closing the fibre-to-fibre recycling loop.

PDF deliverable from the PLASTICE project (D7.1) providing ecodesign guidelines for two material streams: cosmetics plastic packaging and textiles. The textile section covers EU regulations and Ecolabel criteria, ecodesign guidelines for synthetic fabric production from recycled PET, compliance evaluation of project partners SUN TEKSTIL and KORTEKS, and a recyclability assessment framework for textiles.
