Development of an industrial process for colour removal of plasticizers

The projects consist to apply commercially known colour removal technology to a used plasticizers blend produce in Tarkett vinyl sheet flooring plant. Using a continuous packed bed column, the intern will screen the performance and efficiency of several colour and metals removal resins. Following the colour removal experiments, the effect of adding the treated material in Tarkett formulation will be evaluated through different quality control tests developed by the company. In the instance that economically relevant results are obtained, a unit design will have to be carried out.
