Singapore-based packaging provider Tetra Pak South East Asia has ordered a recycling system for used beverage cartons (UBCs) from technology firm Andritz.
ANDRITZ will install the system at a Dong Tien Binh Duong Paper board production mill in Ben Cat Town, which is located in Vietnam’s Binh Duong Province.
Scheduled to begin operations later this year, the stock preparation line will feature the PrimeFFD BT pulper and PrimeClean TO (Two-in-One) cleaner, two new products from ANDRITZ’s Prime product line.
The PrimeFFD BT pulper is part of ANDRITZ’s FibreFlow drum pulper series and will be capable of processing around 50t of alternative raw material a day.
The pulper will operate in batch mode and convert UBCs into high-quality fibres.
It will also separate and reject valuable poly-aluminium components for use in corrugated roofing sheets production.
