Abstract
A method for recycling waste material including waste paper comprises the steps of introducing the waste material into a pressure vessel, re-pulping the waste paper in the pressure vessel at an elevated processing temperature and pressure to form a treated waste material including substantially re-pulped waste paper, thereafter introducing cooling water into the pressure vessel so as to cool the treated waste material in the pressure vessel to a discharge temperature below the elevated processing temperature and reduce odor emitted by the treated waste material, and thereafter discharging the treated waste material from the pressure vessel. The recovered paper pulp fraction is suitable as a feedstock in the manufacture of a variety of paper products including paper tissue and paper towel products.
