PYROLYSIS PROJECTS | CHEMICAL RECYCLING
pyrolysis plant in South Korea with a 100,000 tonnes/yr capacity. Both parties are currently carrying out a feasibility study. By the end of this year, they should have completed evaluation of the most optimal methods to operate, scale and develop the technology within South Korea. In September, Shell Ventures and BlueAlp

Holding announced a strategic partnership to develop, scale and deploy BlueAlp’s plastic waste to chemical feedstock (pyrolysis oil) technology. Shell has taken a 21.25% equity stake in BlueAlp as part of the agreement. Shell and BlueAlp will form a joint-venture company to build two new conver- sion units in the Netherlands, which are forecast to convert more than 30,000 tonnes/yr of plastic waste. The units are planned to be operational in 2023 and will supply 100% of their pyrolysis oil as feedstock to Shell crackers in the Netherlands and Germany. Shell is exploring licensing a further two units for deployment within Asia to supply the Shell Energy and Chemicals Park Singapore. Chris van der Ree, CTO of BlueAlp, says his company’s immediate focus is to increase the technology’s current processing capacity and then license the technology. “Production of larger
volumes of pyrolysis oil are also hindered by inconsistent purity of feedstocks,” says Shell. It plans to deploy its own technology to upgrade the purity of pyrolysis oil at its assets. In October Shell Chemicals Europe also an- nounced a strategic cooperation and offtake agreement for pyrolysis oil made by Rotterdam- based cleantech company Pryme made from recycled plastic waste. Pryme will supply Shell from its first plant located in Rotterdam, The Nether- lands. Currently under construction, the plant is scheduled to become operational in 2022 and is forecast to convert 60,000 tonnes/yr of plastic waste into pyrolysis oil. In early November, Aduro Clean Technologies,
a Canadian developer of patented water-based technologies to chemically recycle plastics and transform heavy crude and renewable oils into new-era resources and higher-value fuels, an- nounced a pending partnership with Brightlands Chemelot Campus in Limburg, the Netherlands. Aduro says the objective of this partnership is to complete an installation that applies Aduro Hydrochemolytic Technology (HCT) to demon- strate, on a tonnes per day scale, the conversion of
