Complexity: plastics are not one single material, but complex chemical products
Traditionally, the variability, complexity, and unknown composition of post-use plastics has made them unsuitable for making new, high-quality products.
If we can consistently characterize the chemistry of post-use plastics, we open the possibility of processing them to new plastics feedstocks.
Base Feedstocks
Butane Condensate Ethane Naphtha Natural Gas Propane
Products
Adhesives Bunker Fuel Chemicals Coatings Diesel Dyes Explosives Foams Paint Plastics Power Resins Synthetic Crude Synthetic Rubber
Basic Chemicals
Ammonia Aromatics Benzene Butadiene Butylene Ethylene Methanol Propylene Toluene Xylene
Chemical intermediaries
Acrylonitrile Ethylene Glycol Glycerin Isobutylene Styrene …and others
Pathways from feedstock to product
We understand the chemical complexity of waste plastics
Agilyx is Data-Driven
Over the last 16 years, we have built a dataset of more than 2,000 plastic waste characterizations and 1,000 hydrocarbon substrates.
For each source, we have more than 100+ data points and continues to build on this foundation.
Agilyx has recipes for more than 1,500 commercial conversions of various waste plastics to more than 1,000 variations of hydrocarbon products.
Data & Analytics
Our dataset of waste plastic is unmatched in the industry, enabling us to create vertically integrated, customized pathways from plastic feedstock to products.
Cyclyx: transforms waste plastic into a recyclable resource
Agilyx: a robust conversion processes is key to recyclability
- 7 th Generation with 16 years of improvement
- Continuous Process for high throughput
-
Versatile Technology for variety of outputs & pathways
-
Fully Automated system operations for scalability
- Robust Process allows contaminated feedstocks
- No Catalyst allows broad range of plastic feedstocks & blends
How to accelerate growth?
The current pace of technology scaling and infrastructure build increases volumes of unmanaged plastics waste.
Acceleration of collection rates, infrastructure and technology is required to meet targets.
Scenario A: STATUS QUO
Significant scaling of chemical recycling critical to close the demand gap
- Mechanical Recycling
- Other
- Chemical Recycling
- Landfill & energy
- Global Plastics Demand
Scenario B: CLOSING THE GAP
Capital light go-to-market strategy is based on technology licensing and royalty streams
= Decision gate
Levers to Growth
In the long term, Asia with even larger potential market
Biggest potential to scale globally in mixed-waste plastic (MWP) and larger PS plants supported by Cyclyx sourcing strategy
Focused capital investments in proof-of-concept (PoC) full-scale plants can accelerate growth and unlock demand for technology licensing
Partnership key to scaling: JVs with chemical companies & collaboration with
Accelerating Growth: partnerships and co-investment
NextChem: validation and acceleration of growth
• Technological solutions to ensure the Energy Transition • Licensing, EPC Services and Project Development
Partnership Models: scaling to accelerate capital light growth
Opportunities to Accelerate
- Collaboration with technology licensor
- Manufacturers favor licensing BUT preference for co-investment around proof of concept
- Co-investment facilitates decision making; speed into development and to construction
Shared plant (JV)
Conversion Project: estimated financial parameters
Principal assumptions for 100TPD PS to 200TPD MWP installations
PRODUCT YIELD/OFFTAKE: 75% - 90%
• Product yields increase in quality with distillation • Bi-products (light and heavy oils) are also of value • Products can be further refined in customer downstream installations
PLANT COSTS: fixed and variable
- Electricity + Utilities: ~\$2.5M to \$3M
- Plant Operations: ~\$6M to \$10M
- Costs can vary significantly by geography
- Greenfield vs. integrated facility costs vary widely
REVENUES & MARGINS: significant variation between PS and MWP
- Annual Revenues: \$30M to \$40M
- Gross Margins: 80% for PS to 90%+ for MWP
- EBITDA Margins: 50% to 60%
- Feedstock Margin: PS ~\$1,000/ton; MWP ~\$600/ton
CAPITAL: Agilyx core equipment & balance of plant (BoP)
- Total capital cost: \$85M \$160M
- Time to operation: 24 to 42 months
PLANT UTILIZATION: 90%
• Days of operation: 330 per year
THROUGHPUT: nameplate capacity in TPD
- Currently, our base unit is 50 TPD
- MWP facilities require scale of >200 TPD
-
1 short ton = 2000 lbs.
-
