Collect and Recycle’s Post

♻️Revolutionising recycling and reducing crude oil demand Pyrolysis oil, produced through the chemical recycling process of pyrolysis, is set to fundamentally reshape the waste management, chemical, fuel and plastic industries, according to Mark Victory, Senior Editor of Recycling at ICIS. 🔗Read more in #NewEnergyWorld, the magazine of the #EnergyInstitute: https://ow.ly/8ILa50SSL4N

Interesting carbon footprint challenges for the chemical industry.

📅 Save the date! Join us, March 12, at the "AMI Chemicals #Recycling Conference" in Houston 🇺🇸. Our experts, Séval Schichtel & Vinicius Celinski, will share insights on "Customized solutions for advanced recycling processes." Dive into the multi-step process of producing #PyrolysisOil and explore how our adaptable #adsorbents & #catalysts can revolutionize your operations. Discover the crucial role #purification plays in achieving cracker-compatible pyrolysis oil from a wide array of #PlasticWaste feedstock Whether you're looking to enhance pyrolysis oil quality or reduce total cost of ownership, you shouldn’t miss this presentation! #GreaterChemistry

Hated by (too) many, chemical recycling has been disregarded as a solution to help mankind deal with the excess residues it produces. For some, the chemical industry is the culprit of all the bad things happening to the environment, and cannot be part of the solution. I disagree with that. For sure the chemical industry is part of the problem, but it can be, and it should be, part of the solution too. It's good to know that some of the big names in the industry are taking the lead in extracting raw materials from residues, using a chemical approach. https://lnkd.in/dEs44cB7

We often use the term 'pine chemicals,' but what is this sustainable raw material? Dive deeper into the world of pine chemistry with this short video. Watch now to learn the basics and discover the eco-friendly solutions we're crafting for a greener tomorrow. https://lnkd.in/dRKRWKsM #sustainable #ecofriendly

This is one of the better meta-analyses I've seen of #polymer #chemical #recycling and #climate. Interestingly, a challenge faced by polyolefins (PP, HDPE, & LDPE) is the high efficiency of their initial production compared to resins like ABS and PTFE. Overall, the authors are much more sanguine that I have been on the potential climate benefits of #pyrolysis and #gasification to make monomers. Importantly, #energy recovery from #plastic always pencils out poorly, highlighting the importance (and challenge) of distinguishing between carbon flows for chemical raw materials and energy production. https://lnkd.in/guq848EX

Agilyx Great initiative and nicely demonstrated by the video👍 ….. but EPS difficult to recycle? Not at all! EPS is one of the best (often seperately) collected materials. It can be recycled in a number of ways that are economically proven and contribute to reduce environmental impact. Available recycling techniques are ao: - mechanical recycling as EPS particles - compacting and melting into Re-GPPS - Dissolution - Chemical recycling Complementary techniques, applicability and environmental preference depending on application and local circumstances.

Are you familiar with The Challenges of Petroleum-Based and Related Products? - The Petroleum Packaging Industry is unique from most other industries due to the complications caused by residual products (petroleum or related liquids) left in the packaging after use. - Disposal is predominantly “landfill only” across the US, and due to the absence of a dedicated collection and recycling system to separate it from other waste streams, it results in a “negative value” of the packaging materials at the end of life (use). - Because the petroleum packaging industry (including automotive, transportation, and other industrial applications) only constitutes a small fraction of all packaging waste across the US, there are minimal opportunities to benefit from broad, multi-industry investments and/or community-based solutions. - Key stakeholders in the petroleum-based and related products supply chain must be part of the solution to address the problem or run the risk of being perceived as contributing to it. - Taking action to develop solutions addressing petroleum-based and related products and materials is becoming necessary for companies to avoid public scrutiny and maintain reputational value, which can be critical to maintaining shareholder confidence and customers’ expectations for more sustainable products. Addressing a complex challenge such as this requires Collective Action. Cost-effective solutions require collaboration with multiple stakeholders (including competitors) upstream and downstream of the petroleum and related products value chain.

🌿 **Innovative Pyrolysis for Sustainable Rubber Recycling** 🌿 At Peaks-eco, our patented pyrolysis technology transforms waste tires into valuable secondary raw materials in an environmentally friendly way. In our pyrolysis units, rubber granules decompose without oxygen, producing rCB (recycled carbon black) for the rubber and plastics industry, crude oil, and natural gas for the chemical industry. The resulting gases are converted into electricity in our CHP units, making the entire recycling process energy self-sufficient. Pyrolysis is a promising method for handling solid waste, turning waste tires into high-value products and reducing environmental impact. https://buff.ly/34dDufy https://buff.ly/4fuLLhK #SustainableRecycling #GreenManufacturing #Pyrolysis #RubberRecycling #CircularEconomy #EnvironmentalProtection #PeaksEco #EcoFriendly
