Pyrolysis and Catalytic Conversion of Plastics

This animation demonstrates Pyrolysis and Catalytic Conversion of Plastics -process that was created as a part of Plast2Recycle -project.

Pyrolysis is one of the most promising chemical recycling technologies, which has the capability to handle also more challenging waste plastic streams. In pyrolysis, the degradation of organic materials takes place under the effect of heat and in the absence of oxygen.

This video has been produced as part of activities of Integrated pilot platforms for plastic recycling - Plast2Recycle European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) funded project (2019-2022).
