Technology description
Waste of man-made fibres generated at an acrylic fibre plant as off-spec fibre, tow, spinning waste, and trimming/handling losses arising across polymerization, spinning and downstream washing/drying/finishing steps (cradle-to-gate plant waste stream).; Downstream processing of as-spun fibre including washing/rinsing, drying and finishing. The provided technical description explicitly states that trimming/handling losses arise across washing/drying/finishing steps; therefore this unit process is separated. This process outputs the finished fibre intermediate for the purpose of maintaining an ordered chain before waste handling.; Flow represents a plant-level mixed stream of man-made fibre scraps/offcuts (not fabric wet-processing residues), consistent with the ILCD 'Production mix, at plant' field.; Treatment is not defined in the flow; route ends at generation and on-site handling/temporary storage for off-site management.; Primary technology context anchored to acrylic fibre manufacturing as the closest matching reference cluster (C1).
