Abstract

The present invention relates to recycling technology for synthetic polyester and polyester + polyurethane textile waste, natural cotton textile waste and textile waste having a mixed composition (cotton + polyester + polyurethane) produced during garment manufacturing processes. In this technology, a piece of equipment known as an agglutinator is used to shred the waste, which is then processed in a thermokinetic blender to produce polymer pellets, and the synthetic textile waste is then used as raw material in thermoplastic injection-moulding processes, and the natural textile waste and textile waste of mixed composition are used as reinforcing fillers for extruded thermoplastic composites with a polyolefin-based matrix. These thermoplastic composites are also used as raw material for injection-moulding.

[01] A presente invenção se insere no campo de aplicação de têxteis, mais concretamente, no reaproveitamento de resíduos têxteis sintéticos e naturais, oriundos dos processos de corte e enfesto de tecidos, visando a formação de pellets para uso em moldagem por injeção para fabricação de peças técnicas e artefatos. [01] The present invention is part of the field of application of textiles, more specifically, the reuse of synthetic and natural textile waste, arising from the processes of cutting and layering fabrics, aiming at the formation of pellets for use in injection molding for manufacturing of technical parts and artifacts.
[02] ANTECEDENTES DA INVENÇÃO [02] BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[03] Segundo dados da ONU Meio Ambiente, a indústria têxtil é um dos maiores motores econômicos do mundo, avaliado em cerca de 2,4 trilhões de dólares de riquezas gerados no ano e responsável por gerar mais de 75 milhões de empregos em todo mundo. No Brasil, a indústria têxtil brasileira é responsável pela produção de 1 ,8 milhões de toneladas de produtos têxteis, tornando o país o quarto maior produtor mundial de itens de vestuário em todo mundo. No Brasil, existem cerca de 30 mil empresas de confecções, onde estas empregam 75% dos trabalhadores do setor têxtil nacional. [03] According to data from the UN Environment, the textile industry is one of the largest economic engines in the world, valued at around 2.4 trillion dollars of wealth generated in the year and responsible for generating more than 75 million jobs worldwide . In Brazil, the Brazilian textile industry is responsible for the production of 1.8 million tons of textile products, making the country the fourth largest producer of clothing items worldwide. In Brazil, there are around 30,000 clothing companies, where they employ 75% of workers in the national textile sector.
[04] A indústria da moda também se destaca por ser uma das mais poluentes do mundo, sendo responsável pela emissão de 10% de gás carbônico na atmosfera. Os processos industriais dos setores da moda também são bastante intensivos em relação à utilização de recursos e consumo de energia. No setor, atualmente existe uma crescente conscientização dos impactos globais do atual sistema linear de produção, que resulta em um grande volume de resíduos gerados que acabam sendo descartados incorretamente. [05] No cenário atual, a consciência sobre a importância da sustentabilidade é cada vez maior, onde o reuso e a reciclagem de descartes torna-se uma tendência mundial como uma alternativa ao desperdício dos recursos naturais. No setor têxtil, durante a produção de uma peça de vestuário, o processo produtivo é dividido em várias etapas, desde o planejamento e construção do molde, seleção de aviamentos, corte, enfesto e costura, gerando desperdícios significativos de matéria-prima na forma de aparas, retalhos e peças rejeitadas. Estes resíduos não apresentam valor para o setor, pois se tornaram pequenos pedaços de tecidos nos quais são impossíveis de cortar de forma contínua em uma parte de peça de vestuário. [04] The fashion industry also stands out for being one of the most polluting in the world, being responsible for the emission of 10% of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Industrial processes in the fashion sectors are also quite intensive in terms of resource use and energy consumption. In the sector, there is currently a growing awareness of the global impacts of the current linear production system, which results in a large volume of waste generated that ends up being disposed of incorrectly. [05] In the current scenario, awareness of the importance of sustainability is increasing, where the reuse and recycling of discards becomes a worldwide trend as an alternative to the waste of natural resources. In the textile sector, during the production of a garment, the production process is divided into several stages, from planning and construction of the mold, selection of trims, cutting, spreading and sewing, generating significant waste of raw material in the form of trimmings, scraps and rejected parts. These residues are of no value to the sector, as they have become small pieces of fabric that are impossible to cut continuously in a garment part.
[06] De acordo com o Sindicato da Indústria Têxtil do Estado de São Paulo (SINDITÊXTIL/SP), em 2018, foram produzidas 140.000 toneladas de aparas de tecidos sintéticos, como o poliéster, poliamida e composições mistas. Deste volume produzido de rejeitos, estima-se que mais de 70% tenham sido destinados a aterros sanitários ou descarte ambientalmente incorreto. No Brasil, estima-se que diariamente são geradas cerca de 45 toneladas de resíduos têxteis. Além das aparas, sabe-se que mais de 150 milhões de peças de confecção não tem destinação definidas e acabam estocadas e posteriormente são destruídas. [06] According to the Textile Industry Union of the State of São Paulo (SINDITÊXTIL/SP), in 2018, 140,000 tons of synthetic fabric shavings were produced, such as polyester, polyamide and mixed compositions. Of this produced volume of waste, it is estimated that more than 70% have been destined for landfills or environmentally incorrect disposal. In Brazil, it is estimated that around 45 tons of textile waste are generated daily. In addition to shavings, it is known that more than 150 million garments have no defined destination and end up being stored and later destroyed.
[07] Dentre os resíduos têxteis sintéticos, destaca-se o poliéster, a poliamida e blendas destes materiais com poliuretano (elastano). No caso do poliéster, o material é um dos mais versáteis do mundo, com alto valor agregado, podendo ser reaproveitados para produção de novas matérias primas a partir da reciclagem dos resíduos de poliéster gerados nas fases pós-industrial e pós-consumo. [08] Diante desta problemática, existe uma tendência mundial em buscar novas alternativas de economia circular para a indústria têxtil. Deste modo, a presente invenção apresenta um desafio tecnológico para o reaproveitamento e reciclagem de resíduos têxteis sintéticos, visando a produção de novas matérias-primas de valor agregado para uso em moldagem por injeção, contribuindo com a redução do impacto ambiental e aumentando a sustentabilidade. [07] Among the synthetic textile waste, polyester, polyamide and blends of these materials with polyurethane (elastane) stand out. In the case of polyester, the material is one of the most versatile in the world, with high added value, and can be reused for the production of new raw materials from the recycling of polyester waste generated in the post-industrial and post-consumer phases. [08] Faced with this problem, there is a worldwide tendency to seek new circular economy alternatives for the textile industry. Thus, the present invention presents a technological challenge for the reuse and recycling of synthetic textile waste, aiming at the production of new raw materials with added value for use in injection molding, contributing to the reduction of the environmental impact and increasing sustainability.

[055] DESCRIÇÃO DETALHADA DA INVENÇÃO [055] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[056] O processo de obtenção de pellets a partir da reciclagem resíduos têxteis sintéticos e resíduos têxteis naturais para moldagem por injeção, objeto da presente invenção, descreve detalhadamente todos os processos para obtenção de pellets a partir de resíduos têxteis sintéticos de poliéster e/ou poliéster com poliuretano e a obtenção de pellets de compósitos termoplásticos de poliolefinas reforçados com tecido de algodão ou de composição mista, são mostradas imagens e tabelas e uma discussão detalhada referentes a modalidades preferidas com o intuito que a presente descrição possa ser considerada como uma exemplificação dos princípios da invenção, não limitando a presente invenção ao que foi ilustrado e descrito neste texto. As etapas do processo são detalhadas como na sequência: [056] The process of obtaining pellets from recycling synthetic textile waste and natural textile waste for injection molding, object of the present invention, describes in detail all the processes for obtaining pellets from synthetic textile waste of polyester and/or polyester with polyurethane and obtaining pellets of thermoplastic composites of polyolefins reinforced with cotton fabric or of mixed composition, images and tables are shown and a detailed discussion referring to preferred embodiments with the intention that the present description can be considered as an exemplification of the principles of the invention, not limiting the present invention to what has been illustrated and described in this text. The process steps are detailed as follows:
[057] Tratamento inicial dos resíduos têxteis sintéticos e resíduos têxteis naturais e processamento a seco [057] Initial treatment of synthetic textile waste and natural textile waste and dry processing
[058] A primeira etapa do tratamento inicial dos resíduos têxteis refere- se a uma etapa de triagem, onde os resíduos são separados por composição. Após a triagem, o material é adicionado em uma cortadeira, onde as aparas têxteis são cortadas em tamanhos entre 1 e 30cm2, tal como demonstrado na Figura 1 . [058] The first stage of the initial treatment of textile waste refers to a sorting stage, where waste is separated by composition. After sorting, the material is added to a cutter, where the textile trimmings are cut into sizes between 1 and 30cm 2 , as shown in Figure 1.
[059] As aparas cortadas são adicionadas em um moinho aglutinador, onde o material é desfibrado até que esteja completamente descaracterizado, se transformando em uma fibra desagregada (Figuras 2 e 3). O moinho aglutinador é tipicamente utilizado para reciclagem de filmes plásticos. O aglutinador também é conhecido como moinho aglomerador, sendo composto de maneira genérica de um recipiente de aço, com navalhas fixas posicionadas nas paredes do moinho e navalhas rotativas acopladas a um motor elétrico. As navalhas fixas e rotativas cortam e atritam as aparas têxteis contra as paredes do equipamento, elevando a temperatura do processo até fazer com que as aparas sejam desfibradas. [059] The cut chips are added to a binder mill, where the material is shredded until it is completely uncharacterized, turning into a disaggregated fiber (Figures 2 and 3). The binder mill is typically used for plastic film recycling. The agglutinator is also known as an agglomerator mill, being generically composed of a steel container, with fixed blades positioned on the mill walls and rotating blades coupled to an electric motor. The fixed and rotating knives cut and rub the textile shavings against the equipment walls, raising the process temperature until the shavings are shredded.
[060] O tempo de desfibragem em moinho aglutinador pode ser controlado através de um amperímetro presente no motor do moinho, onde o amperímetro mostra valores baixos e constantes quando as aparas têxteis são desfibradas. Para a desfibragem dos tecidos, utilizou-se um moinho aglutinador de termoplásticos Premiata, modelo PRM 30A. O tempo de aglutinação é apresentado na [060] The defibration time in a binder mill can be controlled through an ammeter present in the mill motor, where the ammeter shows low and constant values when the textile shavings are defibrated. For fabric defibration, A Premiata thermoplastic binder mill, model PRM 30A, was used. The agglutination time is shown in the
[061] Tabela 1. [061] Table 1.

Secagem e desumidicacão dos materiais Drying and dehumidification of materials
[062] Após a desfibragem dos tecidos em moinho aglutinador, para todos os processos conseguintes, os resíduos têxteis sintéticos e naturais foram secos em uma estufa com circulação de ar em tempos de 1 h a 4h, em temperaturas de 70°C a 1 10°C, de modo a remover a umidade presente nos materiais. [062] After defibration of the fabrics in a binder mill, for all subsequent processes, the synthetic and natural textile waste was dried in an oven with air circulation in times of 1 h to 4 h, at temperatures from 70°C to 110° C, in order to remove the moisture present in the materials.
Preparação de pellets para moldagem por injeção a partir de resíduos têxteis sintéticos Preparation of pellets for injection molding from synthetic textile waste
Processamento dos resíduos têxteis sintéticos em câmara de misturas [063] Em um reômetro de torque Haake, acoplado a uma câmara de misturas Rheomex 3000p, utilizando rotores do tipo roller foram preparadas composições de resíduos de poliéster e/ou poliéster + poliuretano, e suas respectivas blendas com PBT virgem, nas proporções em massa de 100/0 a 25/75 de resíduo têxtil sintético e PBT virgem. Normalmente, a câmara de misturas é utilizada para preparar misturas e compostos em escala piloto para termoplásticos, elastômeros e compósitos. O processamento em câmara de misturas foi realizado em temperaturas a partir de 150°C até 300°C, com velocidade dos rotores entre 60 e 150rpm. A ordem de adição em câmara de mistura é 100% do polímero virgem e o resíduo têxtil é adicionado em até 3 etapas, controlando o torque do equipamento para garantia da eficácia do processo de mistura. O fator de enchimento da câmara de misturas foi de 70%. O resultado desse processamento é apresentado na Figura 4. Processing of synthetic textile waste in a mixing chamber [063] In a Haake torque rheometer, coupled to a Rheomex 3000p mixing chamber, using roller-type rotors, compositions of polyester and/or polyester + polyurethane waste were prepared, and their respective blends with virgin PBT, in mass proportions from 100/0 to 25/75 of synthetic textile waste and virgin PBT. Typically, the mixing chamber is used to prepare pilot scale blends and compounds for thermoplastics, elastomers and composites. Processing in a mixing chamber was carried out at temperatures from 150°C to 300°C, with rotor speeds between 60 and 150rpm. The order of addition in the mixing chamber is 100% of the virgin polymer and the textile residue is added in up to 3 stages, controlling the torque of the equipment to guarantee the effectiveness of the mixing process. The mixing chamber filling factor was 70%. The result of this processing is shown in Figure 4.
Processamento dos resíduos têxteis sintéticos em misturador termocinético Processing of synthetic textile waste in thermokinetic mixer
[064] Em um misturador termocinético modelo MH-600 do fabricante MH Equipamentos, foram preparadas composições de resíduos de poliéster e/ou poliéster + poliuretano, e suas respectivas blendas com PBT virgem, nas proporções em massa de 100/0 a 25/75 de resíduo têxtil sintético e PBT virgem. O misturador termocinético (Figura 5) também é conhecido por misturador Drais, Dryser ou K-mixer. Sua principal aplicação é a produção de concentrados de pigmentos (masterbatches, compósitos, blendas, compostos de PVC e WPG (wood plastic composite). [064] In a thermokinetic mixer model MH-600 from the manufacturer MH Equipamentos, waste compositions of polyester and/or polyester + polyurethane were prepared, and their respective blends with virgin PBT, in the mass proportions of 100/0 to 25/75 of synthetic textile waste and virgin PBT. The thermokinetic mixer (Figure 5) is also known as a Drais mixer, Dryser mixer or K-mixer. Its main application is the production of pigment concentrates (masterbatches, composites, blends, PVC compounds and WPG (wood plastic composite).
[065] O misturador termocinético consiste em um misturador horizontal, sem fonte de aquecimento, onde a fusão do material é realizada através do cisalhamento da amostra com o rotor e a câmara de misturas do equipamento. Os parâmetros de processamento são apresentados na Erro! Fonte de referência não encontrada.. O fator de enchimento utilizado para a câmara do misturador termocinético foi de 50 a 70%. O resultado deste processamento é apresentado na Figura 6.
