Tackling hard-to-recycle plastic at the source.

High density polyethylene: Common plastics grocery bags, detergent bottles, shampoo bottles, etc.
Low-density polyethylene: Soft plastics Plastic foil, frozen food packaging, bread bags, cling foil, etc.
Polypropylene: Bottle caps, straws, yogurt containers, medicine bottles, etc.

Complex plastics solved

Processes mixed, contaminated and hard-to-recycle plastic beyond conventional recycling.
High conversion rate

Up to 85% yield, maximizing resource recovery. 1 kg of plastic produces ~1 liter of circular feedstock.
At source

Process waste where it’s generated, reducing transport costs and emissions.
Fast setup

Plug-and-play system delivered in a standard 40-foot container.
Highly automated

Minimal staffing required with stable, continuous operations.
Scaleable

Modular units enable phased expansion with lower upfront investment.

How it works

01.

Preparation: Plastic is sorted, shredded, washed and dried to ensure consistent input quality.
02.

Feeding: The material is fed through an extruder where it is gradually heated and homogenized.
03.

Conversion: The molten plastic enters the reactor, which operates in an oxygen-free environment, where long polymer chains are broken down into hydrocarbons.
04.

Output: Hydrocarbon vapors are cooled and condensed into two oil fractions.

From waste to value

Refinery-grade
circular feedstock

The resulting product replaces fossil-based inputs in the production of new plastics, transforming plastic waste into circular feedstock for refineries and the petrochemical industry.

Key benefits

• Compatible with existing refinery and petrochemical infrastructure
• Enables circular plastic production
• Converts low-value waste into high-value hydrocarbons

In detail

01

Feeding: Pre-treated plastic is supplied on demand from the buffer silo to the extruder, where it is gradually heated to a molten state. This process creates an airtight seal and enables controlled flow into the reactor.
02

Thermochemical Conversion: Inside the reactor, in an oxygen-free environment, the molten plastic is thermally converted into hydrocarbon gases.
03

Condesation step 1: The hydrocarbon gases are directed to the first condensation step where the heavy hydrocarbons are cooled and liquified.
04

Condesation step 2: The hydrocarbon gases are directed to the first condensation step where the light hydrocarbons are cooled and liquified.
05

Residue Handling: Solid residues are separated from the process and safely discharged into a storage container.
