Abstract:
A method includes charging PET bottle flakes having particular characteristics as a raw material into a crystallizer to generate a crystalline version thereof, drying the crystalline version with dehumidified air at a temperature of 160-180° C. and with a dew point of −40° C. to bring down a moisture level thereof below 100 ppm, melting the dried crystalline version through an extruder configured to have a temperature therein maintained at 285-295° C., and feeding the melted raw material into a spin beam. The method also includes generating, through a spinneret, a number of filaments based on extruding, through the spinneret, the melted raw material fed into the spin beam, forming a yarn based on combining the number of filaments, and winding the formed yarn to generate a spool of Partially Oriented Yarn (POY) configured to be utilized as another raw material to generate a Draw Texturized Yarn (DTY).
