Tetra Pak Recycling – Current Trends and New Developments

Abstract

Tetra Pak packaging is considered an important source of high quality waste paper for pulp industry. Parallel to the fibre recovery a large quantity of PE-Al laminate is produced as by product. Reclaiming that perspective resource will be in focus of many pulp processing plants as conventional ways of disposing of such material are limited by new regulations. From many perspective technologies, only a few have achieved industrial level implementation.
