Description

Description

A research collaboration between Cotton Incorporated and North Carolina State University aims to determine whether post-consumer cotton textiles can be transformed into cellulosic building blocks for new and usable products. The project focuses on developing a chemical-free, low energy consumption, and low CAPEX conversion process to efficiently convert recycled cotton textiles into bio-based building blocks suitable for manufacturing sustainable chemicals and additives. The technology has been proven at bench scale and is moving towards a pilot scale demonstration.
