STYRENIC PLASTICS | INNOVATION
fully operational. Start-up is scheduled for early 2024 with an initial capacity of 26,000 tonnes, which includes separate campaigns for its polysty- rene and polyolefin operations. In a second phase, the plant will be converted into a dedicated polystyrene plant and expanded with an additional line to process up to 65,000 tonnes of plastics annually. The scale-up of the plant will make it Europe’s largest plant for depoly- merisation of polystyrene. The Indaver recycling process is a thermochemi- cal technology whereby long carbon chains in the plastic are depolymerised. The core process, from the extruder to the distillation, will be a bespoke construction to guarantee high-quality recycling. Ineos Styrolution has also teamed up with Indaver in a four-year project to demonstrate the production of ABS based on recycled feedstock. The Life ABSolutely Circular project, funded by the EU’s LIFE programme, will develop a lab-scale solution to prove production and the environmen- tal and economic benefits of using a depolymerisa- tion recycling technology. The project aims to scale up to a demonstration plant and then ultimately to commercialisation.
Dissolution Ineos Styrolution established a joint development agreement with Polystyvert, a Montreal, Canada- based clean technology startup that has developed what it calls a cost-effective, low-carbon footprint dissolution technology to recycle all types of styrenic polymers in a closed-loop, including PS, ABS, SAN,HIPS and SBS. The company’s patented dissolution method of
recycling takes plastic waste in its solid form and dissolves it in an essential oil solvent. Once dissolved, the process can separate contaminants
