Press release) announced, a joint initiative from plastics for
Promotion of solutions for the recycling of polystyrene.
The PSRA brings actors from the entire polystyrene value chain
Together, including plastic manufacturers, processors, recyclers and
Technology developers, the technical cooperation, data exchange and
to promote the development of the infrastructure. Allianz promotes both
Mechanical as well as advanced recycling processes that aim at
to improve the recovery rates and sustainable final markets for
To create polystyrene materials.
Through membership at Plastics, Aduro with a wide network of
Plastic manufacturers, recycling companies, processing and brand owners
connected that are for sustainability and circular economy in the
Insert plastic industry. Via plastics, aduro is on working groups and
take part in political discussions that the regulatory framework,
Design standards and infrastructures to expand the role of
Chemical recycling and advanced conversion technologies required
are.
The Hydrochemolytic (TM) technology (HCT) developed by Aduro uses water in
Connection with a catalyst at moderate temperatures to carbon
To break open carbon and carbon heteroatoma bonds in polymers,
which creates connections with a lower molecular weight. As opposed to
other technologies based on a high heat supply to a
HCT works to cause uncontrolled splitting up the polymer molecules
gentler conditions that enable controlled reaction routes. The
Catalyzed, selective chemistry from HCT leads to higher yields
Hydrocarbon products with high purity of the functional groups
minimal loss of polymer output material due to undesirable by-products
Like carbon residues or heavy tars and gases. Experiments to laboratory and
Large technology flow systems have the suitability of HCT to convert
Post-Consumer polystyrene in defined hydrocarbon intermediate products such as
Toluol, ethylbenzene and cumol. These outputs are with downstream
Chemical infrastructures compatible and do not require any further upgrade.
While the further development and validation are still underlining, underline
These results the potential of HCT for the production of valuable chemical
Products and intermediate products from difficult to recyclable raw materials and mirrors
Aduro’s technical strength in the use of waste flows.
Aduro makes a contribution with the accession to the Polystyrene Recycling Alliance
to an industry -wide cooperation that is based on the systemic and
Material -specific challenges of polystyrene utilization concentrated,
such as the limited collective infrastructure, low recycling rates
And false ideas in public. These challenges stand
At the center of the PSRA mission, access and the introduction of
to expand mechanical and advanced recycling solutions. The early
Work from Aduro to convert polystyrene into targeted hydrocarbon
Intermediate products using its hydrochemolytic (TM) technology are in
Sound with the goals of alliance, innovation, data exchange and the
To promote the development of sustainable final markets. Participation in the PSRA complements
The comprehensive research and development of aduro in the area of various
Plastics and renewable raw materials and reflects the commitment of the
Company, scientifically sound approaches for the
To promote circular economy.
? The recovery rates for polystyrene are still low, and we are
Join the polystyrene recycling Alliance to examine how the
Chemical approach from Aduro contribute to coping with this challenge
can, “said Ofer Vicus, Chief Executive Officer from Aduro Clean Technologies.
? Through our membership of plastics, this commitment becomes the entire
Value chain of the plastic industry expanded so that we are one
Can make a contribution to guidelines, standards and technical cooperation,
While the industry is towards circulatory economy solutions
moved. “
? We look forward to aduro as a new member of both the plastics industry
To welcome the association as well as the polystyrene recycling Alliance, “says
Patrick Krieger, Vice President of Sustainability at Plastics .? The participation
The company reflects the joint commitment to promoting
Recycling solutions and the establishment of a more cooperative, innovative and
more sustainable plastic industry. “
Aduro is currently building its pilot facility for the Next Generation Process (NGP)
in London, Ontario. The NGP pilot plant was available for operation under
continuous flow conditions designed and the evaluation of the
Hydrochemolytic (TM) technology (HCT) using real raw materials
support. The modular and scalable design enables flexibility for
Project -specific applications for a variety of customer requirements. The
Participation of Aduro in the PSRA complements this development by the
Technical exchange, the coordination of samples and a closer coordination
easier to the changing requirements of the industry.
Polystyren is a widespread plastic that in the areas
Packaging, gastronomy, construction and electronics are used. The
worldwide production
(https://www.towardsmenmasmasmaschen.com/insights/polystyrene-market) exceeds
40 million tons a year, with North America about 3.4 million tons of it
matters. Despite this amount, the majority of the post-consumer polystyrene land
on landfills. According to the United States environmental protection authority
Recycled less than 6 % of polystyrene packaging. Foam formats such as
expanded polystyrene (EPS) represent a special challenge because
Eps waste is incurred annually and the municipal
Collection is limited.
In Canada, plastic waste in 2018
4.4 million tons, of which only 8 % were recycled. The recovery rates
For polystyrene, they are particularly low – they are estimated at around 10 % – and
Only 35 % of the municipalities accept EPS in their recycling programs for households,
whereby access to recycling services for this material
is restricted.
Via the polystyrene recycling alliance (PSRA)
The Polystyrene Recycling Alliance is a joint initiative of the plastics
Industry Association (plastics), which is for improving access to
Polystyrenol recycling and its spread across North America. The
Allianz combines plastic manufacturers, processors, recyclers and
Technology developer to invest in the infrastructure, the clarification of the
Interest groups and the further development of mechanical and chemical
To promote recycling solutions.
Via the Plastics Industry Association (Plastics)
The Plastics Industry Association is the leading organization that the entire
Represent a plastic supply chain, including processors, plant manufacturers,
Form builder, material supplier, recycler and brand owner. Plastics was
Founded in 1937 and has set itself the goal of networking interest groups,
to promote sustainable practices, for a responsible policy
to use and promote innovations throughout the industry. The association
Manages several important programs, including NPE: The Plastics Show,
Operation Clean Sweep and the Future Leaders initiative in plastics (flip).
About Aduro Clean Technologies
Aduro Clean Technologies develops patented water -based technologies to
Chemically to recycle plastic waste, heavy crude oil and bitumen in
Lighter, more valuable oil and renewable oils in higher quality fuels
or convert renewable chemicals. The Hydrochemolytic (TM) technology of the
Company uses water as the most important active ingredient in a chemical
Platform that at relatively low temperatures and too low
Cost works. This is a groundbreaking approach that
Converted inferior raw materials in resources for the 21st century.
