Abstract
The paper describes a new method of waste polyethylene terephthalate (PET) recycling based on gas-phase treatment of the material in nitrating atmosphere. It was found that PET samples kept in the nitrating atmosphere (obtained by vaporizing 12 mol L-1 HNO3) at a temperature of 403-463 K (130-190 °C) for 5-24 h dissolve in 0.5 mol L-1 NaOH, in contrast to the untreated PET samples. Ozonation of the obtained alkaline solutions leads to a complete decomposition of the organic compounds present in the solutions. The resulting PET decomposition degree is higher than 99.9 % irrespective of the plastic color. In addition, the possibility of terephthalic acid recovery from the alkaline solutions of the conversion products was shown.
