The production line can not only recycle common PET bottles such as mineral water bottles, beer bottles, and beverage bottles, but also process all kinds of PET containers, such as food packaging bottles and cleaning products bottles.
Customized PET Bottle Washing Plant
We are committed to providing customized PET bottle recycling plant solutions, not only can we customize the configuration, output, and appearance of the recycling line according to the customer’s needs, but we can also design a suitable PET bottle washing line placement plan according to the customer’s plant size and layout needs.
Regardless of the size of the customer’s plant, we can customize the optimal layout of the PET bottle recycling plant to make full use of the space ensure efficient operation of the equipment, and maximize production efficiency. Through well-designed placement solutions, we can not only maximize production efficiency, but also optimize workflow, improve equipment utilization, and bring greater convenience and benefits to our customers’ production operations.
Raw Material And Final Products
The PET bottle recycling plant is capable of processing used PET bottles such as cola bottles, beverage bottles, mineral water bottles, etc., and processing them into high-quality bottle flakes that can be used to produce PET bottles or other related products again. Through sophisticated processing technology, we ensure that the quality of bottle flakes produced is stable and meets the relevant standards and requirements. The following are the standards for PET flakes produced by this recycling line.
- Moisture content: <0.5-1%
- pH: <8.0
- PVC content: < 100ppm
- PE/PP content: < 200ppm
- Impurity content: ≤300-500mg/kg
- Powder content: ≤ 2000-3000mg/kg
- Particle size: < 16-18mm
PET Bottle Washing Plant Workflow
The PET bottle recycling process includes steps such as de-labeling, shredding, floatation and sinking separation, hot washing, friction washing, and drying. Each step is carefully designed and adjusted to ensure optimal recycling results and productivity. From waste PET bottles to usable flakes, the entire process is efficient and environmentally friendly.
The process can be optimized and adapted to actual needs or production volumes. For example, two hot wash tanks can be used when processing larger volumes and two rinsing steps can be added after the hot wash tanks to ensure effective cleaning.
Key PET Bottle Recycling Machine
PET bottle label remover machine: This machine is designed specifically to remove labels from PET bottles. Equipped with multiple carbide blades, it efficiently removes labels by rotating and cutting. Round bottles can achieve a label removal rate of 98%-99%, while flat bottles typically reach 85%-90%.
PET bottle shredder: The machine is specially designed to crush PET bottles into flakes for subsequent washing. The blade material of this crusher is 9Crsi and the screen size is 16-18mm.
Sink float separation tank: The machine separates PET bottle flakes from PP, PE caps, or PVC labels. PET sinks due to its higher density, while PP and PE float. A screw conveyor at the bottom of the cleaning machine moves the PET flakes forward.
PET flakes hot washing machine: The machine effectively cleans and decontaminates bottle flakes using hot water and detergent, usually at a temperature of 85°C to 95°C. The machine can also be used to clean and decontaminate bottles and flakes.
PET friction washing machine: The function of the machine is to subject PET flakes to friction and water in a rotating drum or chamber. This helps to remove stubborn contaminants from the surface of the bottle flakes. This friction washer is usually placed at 45 degrees for better drainage.
PET flakes dryer machine: The machine utilizes centrifugal force to effectively remove water from PET bottle flakes, which can control the water less than 3%-5%, plus drying pipes to control the water less than 0.5%-1%.

PET Bottle Washing Line Tips
- De-labeling separation: Flat bottles and round bottles should be de-labeled separately because of the different knives used.
- Crushing water: when crushing need to use a lot of water to rinse sediment, to prevent contamination of subsequent cleaning.
- Blade maintenance: Sharpeners keep blades sharp and regular maintenance extends equipment life.
- Deep water tank option: When the bottle pieces are thin, the use of a deep water tank will help the bottle pieces to sink.
- Hot washing: Hot wash pot with cleaning powder or lye to effectively remove stubborn stains.
- Moisture control: add drying pipes after the dryer to control the moisture at 0.5%-1%.
- Wind separation: The wind separator separates fine labels and dust to enhance the purity of bottle flakes.
- Drying support: drying pipes need to be installed before the air separator to ensure that the material is dry.
