Abstract
⺠H3PO4 pretreatment for waste textiles was applied for sugar and polyester recovery. ⺠H3PO4 concentration, temperature, time, ratio of textiles: H3PO4 were investigated. ⺠100% polyester was recovered by enhancing H3PO4 concentration, time and temperature. ⺠Maximum of 79.2% sugar recovery can be achieved by enzymatic saccharification. ⺠The process was technically feasible and potentially profitable to recover polyester and sugar.
