The plant consists of the following process sections: (1) Chip Handling, Crystallization and Solida State Postpolycondensation (SSP); (2) Spinning and winding; (3) Chemical & Textile Laboratories and Balance Equipment; (4) Refrigeration and Compressed Air Plants. Bright and undried PET chips are feed to the crystallization system (30 TPD capacity) and then processed in the continuously operating SSP line, which has turn-down ratio of 1:4 (min. capacity 7.5 TPD and nominal capacity 30 TPD). The two (2) extruders have multiple zones of heating and cooling, with screw diameter of 150 mm. Each of the two (2) spinners has 4 spinning positions applying 4-end spinning and 4-end winding. Spinneret diameter is 165 mm. Each spinning head is equipped with: 2 one-fold gears for 2-stream melt metering (spinning) pumps, 2 synchronous e-motors, 2 static frequency converters for spinning pumps, 1 annealer, and 1 air quenching chamber. Draw-winding systems have 4 positions. Each position has: 2 spin finish application systems for 4-ends, 1 yarn suction system for 4-ends, 1 pretension godet with separator roll, 5 heated drawing godet, 1 pre-intermingling system, and 1 automatic Barmag winder (model # ACW 6I-1200/4). The winder is equipped with turret, 2chuks for 4 bobbins with push out system, birotor traveling system. The package size is 250 mm width and max. 390 mm diameter. The product of PET – SLS has fineness of 1100 / 192 dtex/l.

Spinnerets dia 410 mm (8 in operation and 16 standby), 6-10 den for titer, 1860 holes, round and hollow profile. The plant has Siemens PLC control system. All technical documents are available.

Used PET Continuous Polycondensation Unit supplied by Zimmer of Germany immediately available for sale. The plant is designed for the continuous production of polyester (PET) starting from pure terephthalic acid (PTA) and ethylene glycol (EG). The process stages are: big bag unloading, catalyst system, delustering system, paste preparation, esterification, prepolycondensation and final polycondensation.

Used PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate or Polyester) polymerization and yarn spinning plant including the following units: (1) 42 TPD continuous polycondensation unit supplied by SINCO of Italy, (2) 31 TPD continuous polycondensation unit supplied by BEPEX of USA, (3) 9.5 TPD batch polycondensation unit supplied by Hitachi of Japan, (4) 7.5 TPD batch polycondensation unit supplied by OHL of Germany, (5) 5 TPDX 4 PET yarn spinning lines supplied by TMT Machinery of Japan. The PET yarn products are industrial grade of 1000 - 2000 denier.

Used 6,500 TPY PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) Fiber Plant. This plant uses PET chips to manufacture fibers in deniers ranging from 1100 to 2200 dtex. Major market of the PET fiber products are high modulus yarn used in geotextile applications, and low shrinking yarn used mostly for tarpaulins. The process includes crystallization, solid state polymerization reaction, extrusion, cross quenching, spinning, drawing and winding. The plant also has an automatic doffing and packing system. Major equipment was manufactured by Barmag and Rieter.

Used 450 TPD PET Plant. The PET reaction trains use the technology from DuPont for PTA based esterification process and the upgrades to enhance the polymerization capacity. This technology includes six (6) process sections: PTA & MEG slurry mixing, esterification, catalyst and additive injection, pre-polymerization, polymerization, and ship formation. The pre-polymerization uses glycol enhanced mass transfer without mechanical agitation. The polymerization occurs by a cage-type finisher agitator without central shaft. Continuous wiping of finisher vessel wall eliminates degradation. The product bottle resin has polymer IV 0.6 (+/- 0.01), catalyst concentration less than 250 PPM as Sb, DEG content 1.2% in polymer, IPA 2.15% weight, toner (Cobalt Acetate) 60 PPM, phosphoric acid 20 PPM, COOH 40, acetaldehyde 90 PPM, moisture content 0.2%, bottle chip weight 15 – 18 mg/chip, chip size 3.0 X 2.0 X 2.5 mm. The SSP (Solid State Polymerization) plant uses UOP technology further processes the PET resin of 0.60 dl/g IV into 0.84 dl/g IV, which is bottle grade quality resin. The SSP process includes 4 steps: (1) crystallization, (2) annealing, (3) SSP reaction, (4) cooling.

Used 150,000 TPY Polyethylene Terephthalate Plant using Buhler of Germany technology built in 2008. Includes 400 TPD Zimmer Process Continuous Polymerization (CP) line, and 2x 200 TPD Bueller Process Solid State Polymerization (SSP) lines. Raw material is Purified Terephthalate Acid (PTA).
