SubsidieMeestersOpenLOOP recycling technology - sustainable and profitable solution to the management of PET/cellulose waste
OpenLOOP aims to advance a clean chemical recycling technology for PET and cellulose waste, producing high-value feedstocks while ensuring industrial integration and automation.
Projectdetails
Introduction
OpenLOOP is delivering a novel chemical recycling technology that:
- Can be used to degrade any mixture and blend of PET (polyethylene terephthalate) plastic and CELLULOSE waste.
- As a final output yields high-value feedstock: 5-HMF (5-hydroxymethylfurfural), LA (Levulinic acid), H2 (hydrogen), and rTA (recycled Terephthalic Acid).
- Is clean and can be successfully implemented in an industrial environment.
Technology Overview
The OpenLOOP technology consists of several IOSs proprietary processing steps involving chemical procedures:
- Enzymatic hydrolysis to separate PET and CELLULOSE.
- Neutral hydrolysis to depolymerise PET.
- rTA purification.
- Dehydration to extract 5-HMF.
- 5-HMF and LA purification.
Project Goals
In the OpenLOOP project, we intend to:
- Mature the technology.
- Integrate it into the industrial environment of IOSs DEMO plant.
- Automate procedures to make them safe and simple to operate.
- Validate the technology.
- Engineer process steps to deliver optimal productivity.
- Design commercial packages.
- Develop the supply chain.
