General information

Short Summary
This technology enables the rapid processing of low-quality plastic waste using pyrolysis in mobile containers, directly at collection points, without additional transport and accumulation of waste. The electricity produced can power up to 150 single-family homes, and the resulting green hydrogen can be used for various industrial purposes.
Full Description
By utilizing pyrolysis in mobile containers, they can rapidly process low-quality plastic waste directly at collection points, without the need for additional transportation or waste accumulation. The resulting electric current can be utilized for green hydrogen production, which can be utilized for various industrial purposes such as transportation, heating, cooling, and more. They prioritize waste recycling, as opposed to incineration, in order to create a sustainable future. Pyrolysis is particularly useful in the processing of various plastic films, making their approach even more efficient and effective.Moreover, the daily electricity output can provide green energy for up to 150 single-family houses. Their approach is aligned with the waste management hierarchy, prioritizing recycling over incineration. The iinnovative technology is particularly effective in processing various plastic films, making it an efficient and effective solution for waste plastic treatment.It is already on the market, however the company's goal extends to creating a green loop from energy production to energy reuse.
Advantages and Innovations
The main advantage of using this technology lies in its ability to rapidly and efficiently process low-quality plastic waste using pyrolysis in mobile containers. This approach allows for the treatment of waste plastic directly at collection points, reducing the need for additional transportation and accumulation of waste.
One of the key advantages of this process is its ability to produce green energy, including both electricity and consequently hydrogen, which can be used in a variety of industries. Another advantage of this approach is its alignment with the waste management hierarchy, which prioritizes recycling over incineration.
