Plastalyst develops green, safe and efficient catalysts that make plastic recycling financially attractive.

Identification
According to the United Nations (2018), only around 9% of the 6.3 billion tons of plastic waste produced over the last 65 years have been recycled. The problem is that our mechanical recycling cannot process mixed plastic. Pyrolysis is deemed the answer. However, high operating temperatures lead to preventively high costs. Plastalyst is the answer. Through novel catalysts, it can recycle plastic at 90% fewer energy costs. This means that businesses can finally recycle more plastic at low costs.
