Letter from the Editor
Welcome to Chemical Recycling Global Insight 2022, a special publication written and produced by AMI Magazines, with support from AMI Consulting. The development of chemical recycling is a response to the global problem of waste plastics in the environment. Its advocates see chemical recycling as complementary to mechanical recycling which is itself growing in importance. In this publication, we look at the market
prospects for chemical recycling and how the industry is taking shape. The articles cover not just the scope of the waste plastics problem, but also influencing factors such as legislation and targets for use of recycled content. There is an article on the various technologies that come under the chemical recycling umbrella term, offering a guide to their differences and relative advantages. You will find our article on what’s new in chemical recycling projects very helpful in staying up-to-date with the many facilities being built around the world. Some of the players in this fast-moving industry are featured in a series of company profiles. We hope you find this publication informative and useful.
