Unicharm chooses Diaper Recycling Technology – Unicharm Diaper Recycling Technology - Arhive

Diaper Recycling Technology, a technology company solely focused on advanced diaper recycling solutions, successfully commissioned a new central recycling process capable of processing 500 KG/hour per module while achieving breakthrough energy requirements.

Melvin Tan, operations manager of Diaper Recycling Technology, says:  “The team has worked hard to achieve these new milestones and we are all appreciative of the hard work and dedication of the engineering and process teams to achieve this significant milestone.

Part of our drivers to develop the new air-less process were not only to benefit our end-customers but also to benefit the environment.”

Martin Scaife, managing director of Diaper Recycling Technology, comments: “We are very happy with the new process performance, not only the reduced power requirements but more significantly the purity of the material streams allowing risk free pulp re-feed back into the core-former and the high value re-sell of the PE/PP material stream.

We also have to thank the R&D team on their newly developed SAP separation process. This breakthrough is key to ensure that the SAP can be re-used back within the production process without detrimental effects to the end-user.

The new process not only ensues a pure SAP stream but as the process operates without passing SAP through fans the ever critical SAP outer cross-linker surface is retained thereby ensuring no negative product impacts.”
