Chemical recycling and capacity Sample Clauses

Chemical recycling and capacity. Chemical recycling technologies for textiles are rapidly emerging and many companies are currently constructing pilot and commercial recycling plants for cellulosic as well as synthetic textiles. Chemical technologies are better suited for the treatment of textile material blends compared to (thermo-) mechanical technologies as the recycled material can be purified and separated to obtain a pure, colourless polymer or monomer virgin-like quality. On the other hand, these technologies typically require higher energy and water inputs as well as larger scales to ensure economic viability. Generally, chemical recycling companies also request sorted and disassembled or separated input albeit mostly for economic rather than technical reasons. A distinction is made between monomer recycling (materials are broken down into their constituent monomers) or polymer recycling (polymers are extracted and kept largely intact). Three categories of technologies were identified: • Polymer recycling of cellulosic via pulping • Recycling of synthetic and blended textiles • Monomer recycling of synthetic textiles Page38 Chemical recycling plants of large capacity are limited, together processing approximately 15 kt/y of textile waste. However, many companies are building up pilot and commercial plants for both cellulosics and synthetics as is shown in table xx with the projections set.

  • Safety Glasses Section 1. The City shall supply prescription safety glasses with plastic lenses to employees who are required to wear safety glasses and who are members of the classifications contained in Appendix C to this contract. Safety glasses which are authorized must be industrial grade safety glasses which meet or exceed the requirements of ANSI Specification Z87. 1.

Photogray, progressive, scratch coating and/or anti-glare lenses may be considered for those employees who primarily work outdoors or as prescribed. In the event that additional classes are identified as needing either prescription safety glasses or protective eyewear, such classes may be added to the classification list in Appendix C upon approval of PAGE and the City. Section 2. The City agrees to pay the full cost of required prescription safety glasses, with frames not to exceed $75.00. This excludes the cost of the eye examination which will be the responsibility of the employee. The effected employees will be allowed one (1) replacement of safety glasses every two (2) years. In the event the safety glasses become lost, unserviceable, or broken on the job, the employee must present a written request for replacement to the Department Head and Human Resources Director.
