Verfahren zur Wiederverwertung von Polyamid-haltigen Teppichabfällen

摘要

The invention relates to a process for recycling polyamide-containing carpet waste by extracting the polyamide from the carpet waste with an extraction agent containing an aliphatic alcohol, after which the polyamide is recovered from the extract. The process according to the present invention gives a high yield of the polyamide. The presence of other constituents normally used in carpet-making does not interfere with the recycling.
