INTRODUCTION
• Used Beverage Cartons (UBC) also called “Tetrapak”. On one hand,
Tetrapak poses a serious threat to the environment as waste, on the other
hand, a preferred source of economic recovery as a secondary raw
material. Tetrapak is composed of 60 - 70 % cellulose fibers and 30 - 40 %
polyethylene foils and aluminum (not always). All these components are
valuable raw materials for further industrial use. However, there is one
condition is that the components must be separated from each other
perfectly.

INTRODUCTION
What is UBC?
UBC means Used Beverage Cartons also called “Tetrapak”.
Threat: Serious threat to the environment as waste
Raw material: A preferred source of economic recovery as a secondary raw
material.
Tetrapak is composed:
60 - 70 % cellulose fibers
30 - 40 % polyethylene foils and aluminum (not always).

Impact of Waste on Environment
“Collection” is not the same as
“Recycling”
Recycling includes processing and making new products!

Stage Wise Operational Description- Pulping
• During periodical pulping at high consistency (being more suitable for
hard pulpable materials) fibres are separated from foils.
• The products in this stage are a washed foil mixture containing less than
1.5% b. d. fibres and fibre stock collected in a chest before a coarse
screening stage.
• In this step more than 80% of foils are separated.

Stage Wise Operational Description- High Density Cleaning & Coarse Screening
• In the high density cleaning stage, on a high-density cleaner, stock is made
free from sand and specifically heavy particles.
• In coarse screening, most of the remaining foils are removed. The foils are
intermittently drained to a reject thickening unit.
• Accept is collected in a chest before a fine screening stage.
04/21/23
Stage Wise Operational Description- Fine Screening • Pressure screen (slotted screen) removes fine foils and non-pulped
fractions. This reject is intermittently drained to a reject dewatering unit.
• Reject volume usually is not high, beverage cartonboards do not contain
kind of impurities usually in other sorts of processed raw materials.
• Fine screening accept is thickened up to 35 – 40 % b.d. on a belt press
with a palleting device.

• Recycling Used Beverage Cartons has following benefits:
– Enabling the efficient use of raw materials by extending
their life into new products.
– Reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
– Diverting valuable materials from landfill.
