Exploring chemical recycling and bio-based plastics production in existing refineries

How do we meet the growing demand for plastics? The global refining, gas, and petrochemical industries are under pressure to decarbonise and adopt sustainable practices while meeting increasing needs for plastics. This webinar will provide you with the following insights in addressing these challenges: - Explore advanced solutions such as chemical recycling, bio-based plastics, and mechanical recycling - See how Axens integrates recycling technologies into existing refineries - ...

Proven decarbonisation pathway for sustainable biofuels and chemicals production from waste webinar

The flexibility to make use of varying waste streams as feedstocks to replace primary fossil resources is a common goal in operations today. You may be looking at sources such as woody and agricultural biomass, MSW, RDF, SRF, sewage sludge, or non-recyclable plastic to produce bio or circular chemicals or sustainable fuels: Bio Syngas, green hydrogen, SAF, sustainable maritime fuels, or BioMethanol. The key question is how to decarbonize these assets to meet sustainability and ...

Applying Crude to Chemicals: Technologies for effective petrochemicals production

With the consumption of petrochemicals increasing globally and the demand for transportation fuels under pressure from energy transition initiatives, refiners are being driven to optimize their facilities and explore revenue streams outside of the traditional transportation fuel value chains. There are several alternatives and methodologies to capture additional value from crude oil through conversion into petrochemicals to consider. This webcast covers: - How to convert a ...

Enabling circularity via plastics chemical recycling

Chemical recycling of plastics is an emerging route to supplement mechanical recycling since polymers can be converted into monomer form.  As opposed to mechanical recycling, wherein the polymer properties degrade with each cycle, the monomers can be re-polymerized without any polymer property degradation. Petrochemical and refining operations of the future will include more plastics oil, obtained from chemical recycling, in the feedstock mix to establish circularity in the ...
