HydroPRS process is under construction by ReNew ELP in Teesside, Northeast England. This 80,000 tpa capacity recycling site is located at Wilton International, an established industrial site, with readily available utilities and potential for labora- tory, scale-up, and pilot facilities. ReNew ELP looks to be operational in early 2023 with the first 20,000 tonne line, with three further lines to follow by 2025. ReNew ELP has a contract with Geminor UK to act as principal feedstock supplier to the Teesside project. The new agreement will see at least 15,000 tonnes of PE and PP rich plastic diverted away from incineration and into recycling per year, making up
from Mura. The two companies will also build multiple 120,000 tpa facilities in the US and Europe, adding as much as 600,000 tpa of capacity by 2030, Dow said in July. “Using supercritical steam means the technology is also inherently scalable,” says Dow. “Unlike other methods, which heat waste from the outside, the steam imparts energy from the inside, providing an efficient conversion of plastic waste; a process which can be maintained regardless of scale.” Dow says it is actively pursuing a number of com-
mercial partnerships with customers and brand owners to scale chemical recycling technology “as quickly as possible.” It has, for example, announced a strategic investment with Plastogaz SA, a technology start-up and proprietor of a chemical recycling technology. Dow says: “Plastogaz’s proprietary catalytic hydrocracking technology solu- tion is more efficient and less energy-intensive than some other current forms of advanced recycling.” Dow and Fuenix Ecogy Group are also expand-
