Plastics are versatile materials, however the current way of usage is incredibly wasteful. Fossil fuels are used for the production and a large part of the waste is incinerated. Therefore, it is necessary to improve plastic recycling to achieve the goals that are set in the Paris Climate Agreement regarding the reduction of CO2 emissions.
Blue Cycle has reconsidered the relationship with plastic and developed a plant in which more types of plastic waste can be broken down into their valuable raw form. The generated oil will ultimately be used as a resource for new plastics to close the cycle. This reduces the amount of CO2 emissions related to plastic production and waste incineration. In this way, Blue Cycle contributes to the solution for the general environmental problem.
