One such technology, Dawn Technology, converts non-food plant-based feedstock into glucose and lignin, proven in its pilot plant in Delfzijl (the Netherlands). This glucose can be used in chemical and fermentation processes for diverse products such as monomers for bio-based plastics.<\/p>\n<p>[&#8230;]<\/p>\n<p>The trials at Avantium\u2019s Dawn pilot plant have shown high glucose yields from polycotton waste, indicating scalability and cost-effectiveness. This method is therefore the first viable process to effectively recycle both polyester and cotton fractions in high yields. With global textile production expected to reach 149 million tons by 2030 and a recycling rate of less than 1%, Avantium&#8217;s technology offers a sustainable solution for a circular, low-carbon textile industry and aligns with new regulations that make textile producers responsible for waste management.<\/p>\n<p>Avantium supported this groundbreaking project by hosting PhD students from the Industrial Sustainable Chemistry research group of the University of Amsterdam in its laboratories and its Dawn pilot plant in Delfzijl. The first author of the paper, PhD student Nienke Leenders, works on secondment at Avantium.<\/p>\n<p>[&#8230;]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read the full article via this link:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/newsroom.avantium.com\/avantium-finds-important-solution-for-polycotton-textile-waste-recycling\/#\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/newsroom.avantium.com\/avantium-finds-important-solution-for-polycotton-textile-waste-recycling\/#\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n              <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n  \n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":4965,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[31,30],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5668","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-chemical-recycling","category-shoes"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Avantium Finds Important Solution for Polycotton Textile Waste Recycling - Avantium - RecycleRefashion<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Avantium developed a patented technology to break down the cotton in polycotton fabric, leaving the polyester intact.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/recycle.oliv.fr\/en\/avantium-finds-important-solution-for-polycotton-textile-waste-recycling-avantium\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Avantium Finds Important Solution for Polycotton Textile Waste Recycling - Avantium - RecycleRefashion\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Avantium developed a patented technology to break down the cotton in polycotton fabric, leaving the polyester intact.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/recycle.oliv.fr\/en\/avantium-finds-important-solution-for-polycotton-textile-waste-recycling-avantium\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"RecycleRefashion\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2025-01-31T11:20:23+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2025-02-20T11:27:03+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/recycle.oliv.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Fibre-scaled.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"2560\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"1404\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Sophie Cornou\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Sophie Cornou\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/recycle.oliv.fr\\\/en\\\/avantium-finds-important-solution-for-polycotton-textile-waste-recycling-avantium\\\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/recycle.oliv.fr\\\/en\\\/avantium-finds-important-solution-for-polycotton-textile-waste-recycling-avantium\\\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Sophie Cornou\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/recycle.oliv.fr\\\/en\\\/#\\\/schema\\\/person\\\/e9ecba5cad8b23f82886d492df560a23\"},\"headline\":\"Avantium Finds Important Solution for Polycotton Textile Waste Recycling &#8211;
