plant at the Brightlands Chemelot Campus in the Netherlands and awarded the construction contract to US engineers Fluor. The plant will employ Itero’s patented modular technology based on pyrolysis to convert 27,000 tonnes/yr of plastic waste into oils, waxes and gas. Valoregen is building what it says will be the
largest hybrid recycling site in France combining mechanical and chemical recycling at a location in Damazan. It is hoped bringing these technologies together under one roof will minimise waste and increase energy efficiency. When it opens at the end of Q1 2023, the facility will have the capacity to process up to 70,000 tonnes/yr. In late August, Technip Energies and Agilyx announced the launch of TruStyrenyx, an all-in-one solution for the chemical recycling of polystyrene combining Agilyx’s pyrolysis process and Technip’s purification technology. This launch followed favourable results from pilot plant testing conduct- ed on various types of waste polystyrene including samples laden with flame retardant. A collaboration between Clariter, BioBTX,
Bollegraaf, and N+P unveiled in the autumn will see the construction of what is described as Europe’s largest and most advanced chemical recycling sorting plant at Delfzijl in the Nether- lands. With a capacity of 350,000 tonnes/yr, the facility will target the lowest-grade plastic waste and is expected to come online by 2025. KTS, a Koch Engineered Solutions company, and
Ioniqa, announced a partnership to scale up and commercialize Ioniqa’s PET depolymerisation technology. As part of this collaboration, KTS committed to investing up to €30m. In September, LyondellBasell announced the successful start-up of its MoReTec pyrolysis-based

recycling pilot facility at its Ferrara, Italy, site. Then in October, it signed an agreement with 23 Oaks Investments to create Source One Plastics, a joint venture to build an energy efficient sorting and chem- ical recycling facility at the Wesseling site in Germany. The final investment decision for the proposed 50,000 tonnes/yr plant is set for the end of 2023. SK Innovation announced it will invest around $1.2bn to build a multi-process chemical recycling plant at its facility in Ulsan, South Korea. The com- plex could have a capacity of 250,000 tonnes/yr, and will include high-purity polypropylene extraction, PET depolymerisation and pyrolysis. Construction is scheduled to begin in September 2023. At the K Show in October, Sabic presented a video celebrating the one-year construction milestone of the site it is building with Plastic Energy in Brightlands Chemelot, the Netherlands, known as SPEAR-SABIC Plastic Energy Advanced Recycling BV. The plant, which will produce ISCC-accredited circular polymers, is on schedule for an official opening in Q2 2023.
