After process, 85%-95% of the liquids are extracted from the bottles and they are collected into a tank. Before draining out, they would be treated first in order to avoid water pollution. As for the compacting effect, the bottles’ volume ratio before and after compacting is around 6:1.

Applications of the Recycled PET Bottles

There are industries that reuse recycled PET bottles. They serve as the driving force of PET bottle recycling and outdated liquid recycling, otherwise the bottles still exist as waste plastic even though they are dewatered and compacted.

For example, the waste PET bottles recycled in German are compacted into smaller sizes and sold to China. Chinese factories process the waste bottles into textiles such as woolen sweaters, which are transported back to the German market. The price of the raw materials equals only 32 Euro cents, while the woolen sweaters are sold at the unit-price of 50-100 Euros. There are good profits.
