Yuantian Biotechnology (Tianjin) Co., Ltd

Founded in October 2022, Yuantian Biotechnology (Tianjin) Co., Ltd. is a biotechnology company mainly focused on the technology research and development and commercial application of enzymatic recycling of waste PET plastics. The company’s R&D team is mainly from the State Key Laboratory of Chemical Engineering of Tianjin University. With the comprehensive technologies of enzyme engineering, genetic engineering, bioinformatics,fermentation engineering and chemical engineering, Yuantian Biotech has developed efficient and specific PET degrading enzymes, which can degrade all kinds of waste PET materials (polyester fabric,beverage bottles, PET film, etc.) under normal pressure and temperature. After PET crystallization and distillation, the monomer r PTA and r EG can be obtained. The two monomers can then be polymerized to reborn-PET(rb PET), which can be further used in the production of food packaging, textile fibers,engineering materials and optical devices, in order to achieve upgrade recycling and unlimited cyclic utilization.

Worn Again Technologies

Worn Again is dis-Solving Textile Waste using a proprietary chemical recycling technology which extracts high value polymers from mixed feedstocks containing polyester and cotton, which are the most popular fibre materials in clothes. The solvent based system is able to decontaminate and decolour textiles and is especially effective at separating elastane which is a known challenge for conventional systems. Worn Again is currently scaling its technology in Switzerland, where it operates a Textile-to-Fibre Accelerator plant for industrial demonstrations.

We define the standards for size reduction within the wood industry, and we want to help you turn your wood waste into profit. | Destroy Responsibly! (TM) — As an Official Recycler of NPE2024, WEIMA wants to empower companies to consider in-plant size reduction and recycling. The Recycling Zone behind West Hall will feature a WEIMA shredder and two granulators in operation. Attendees are invited to view the machinery inaction. WEIMA’s goal (in conjunction with Commercial Plastics Recycling, Inc., Conair, PLASTICS, and Freeman Co.) is to recycle 100% of the plastic scrap that is generated on the show floor at NPE2024. WEIMA’s robust line of shredders can handle plastic materials including pipe, purge, sprues/runners, film, fibers, bottles, crates/bins, nonwovens and more. Our single-shaft shredders are ideal for shredding scrap prior to a granulator or repelletizing line. Large hoppers allow for bulk feeding without the need to pre-cut materials. When consistent piece sizes are fed into a granulator, it regulates material flow while eliminating spikes in power. This helps to lower energy costs. WEIMA shredders can be customized to meet the demands of specific applications. With the range of equipment and a variety of rotor types, rotor geometries and cutting tools, we can handle such plastics as PE, PP, PVC, PS, PU and PET among others. The V-Rotor is designed for the shredding of hard plastics, while the F-Rotor is for woven and non-woven film and fiber materials. Other optional features include a lift-up door for easy maintenance, multiple knife configurations, custom hoppers, a variety of rotor widths, and more. When it comes to industrial plastic shredders, one size does not fit all.

Textile Change

TEXTILE CHANGE – RECURRING VALUE FROM TEXTILE WASTE. We transform mixed textile waste into high-quality polyester pellets and cellulose pulp, ready for new fiber production. At the heart of our technology is advanced chemical preprocessing, designed to break down surface treatments and remove PFAS, dyes, elastane, and finishing agents. This enables clean and efficient molecular separation of polyester and cellulose from even the most complex blends. Our patented five-step process combines wet-mechanical treatment, deep chemical cleaning, decolorization, and polymer separation — all based on green chemistry, with no toxic chemicals and full recirculation of solvents and water. Textile Change enables scalable, clean recovery of raw materials from blended textile waste — powering the shift toward recycling of complex textile waste.
