Dr. Byungwook Hwang's research team from the CCS Research Department at the Korea Institute of Energy Research (KIER) has successfully developed a process that applies the circulating fluidized bed ...

Denovia's low-temperature depolymerization process converts contaminated textile waste into 98.3% pure monomers in minutes.

With a new process, ENGEL makes it possible to process plastic waste as flakes in injection molding directly after grinding. Since pelletizing as a separate process step is eliminated, the innovation ...

Each manufacturing sector has a distinctive set of tools, processes, technologies, and challenges. These differences make it extremely difficult, costly, and time consuming for manufacturers to adapt ...

We know that most plastics thrown into the recycling bin don’t get recycled, but what about the ones that do? According to new research, those also end up spitting bits of plastic back into the ...

'Flexible plastic' items like potato chip bags are often thrown away, but can be recycled back into food-grade films using an award-winning COtooCLEAN process. So-called flexible plastics aren’t very ...

China’s policy to ban imports of postconsumer scrap plastics has upended markets for some of this material—namely film and mixed plastics—in the United States. Two recyclers shared why they have ...

Plastic bottles and bags can be vaporised into chemical building blocks and turned into new plastics with all the properties of virgin material. There are hurdles still to overcome, but the new ...

Plastic materials are prone to degradation by atmospheric oxygen. These auto-oxidation reactions occur at ambient temperature but become especially relevant during melt processing. Adding antioxidants ...

HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) -- For the past two weeks, ABC13 Meteorologist Elyse Smith has covered how the City of Houston manages recycling, specifically looking at how plastic is recycled. And when it ...

A new process to recycle existing plastics indefinitely and reduce the flood of plastics into landfills is being developed by scientists at the University of California, Berkeley. From sandwich bags ...
