Abstract

Depending on the states of polyurethane scraps generated in the production sites of polyurethane or recycling center of polyurethane scraps, appropriate recycling technologies can be employed for the recycling of resources. In this study, recycling technologies for the polyurethane scraps were classified into physical recycling, chemical recycling, and energy recycling and reports in the literatures were discussed.

다양한 발포체와 탄성체로 사용되는 폴리우레탄은 생산 현장에서 발생하는 폐기물과 사용 후 발생하는 폐기물들이 상태에 따라 적절한 재활용 기술이 적용됨으로써 자원 순환에 이바지 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 재활용 기술을 물리적인 재활용, 화학적인 재활용, 에너지 재활용으로 구분하여 문헌에 보고된 내용들을 고찰하였다.
