Abstract

A method of forming a polyester from a regenerated composition comprising a regenerated diacid and a catalyst obtained from depolymerization of a polyester in a waste material is disclosed. The method comprises: reacting a diol and the regenerated diacid in the regenerated composition to form one or more compounds including an ester bond; optionally providing additional catalyst; and polymerizing the one or more compounds including an ester bond to form a polyester.
