Majority of plastic waste goes to landfill or incineration

Market opportunity

  • Currently less than 20% collected for recycling
  • Enormous potential to utilize waste streams that currently go to landfill and incineration
  • McKinsey estimates that ~50% could be collected for recycling by 2030

Source: McKinsey: How plastics-waste recycling could transform the chemical industry (December 2018) 9

Chemical recycling: growth potential

Growth in global profit pool from 2016 to 2030 (billion USD)

Market Opportunity

  • A significant increase of pyrolysis based recycling is needed to fill a large part of the gap on the plastics disposal-reuse
  • alternative to recycle plastic waste for which no feasible mechanical recycling option exists

Supportive EU regulation

Market opportunity

2018

EU Plastics Strategy: 50% of all plastic packaging to be recycled by 2025

EU Green Deal: Boost efficient use of resources by moving to a clean, circular economy

2019

EU Plastic Tax of EUR 800 per tonne on non-recycled plastic packaging waste

2020

2021

Stringent regulation on EU exports of plastic waste

Chemical recycling: sustainability case

Climate change impact per plastic recycling technology: Kilograms CO2 eq. / kilograms polyolefins

92,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions avoided

Market opportunity

  • Reduction of need for virgin oil and gas
  • Increase in resource efficiency by diverting waste otherwise destined for incineration or landfill
  • Possibility to upcycle mixed plastic waste to food-grade packaging
  • Complementing mechanical recycling

At least 10 million tonnes of usable European feedstock for Pryme

Market Opportunity
