Abstract
In particular embodiments, a process for producing bulked continuous carpet filament from recycled polymer utilizes two vacuum pumps (A,B) in combination with a single extruder (). In various embodiments, the dual vacuum arrangement (e.g., at least two vacuum pumps (A,B)) operably coupled to the single extruder (e.g., MRS extruder ()) may be configured to remove one or more impurities from recycled polymer as the recycled polymer passes through the extruder.
