Agilyx and Braskem looking at developing North American advanced plastics recycling project

In Brazil, Agilyx and Braskem have initiated a feasibility study to explore the development and construction of an advanced plastics recycling project in North America. 

The project aims to examine an efficient pathway to produce polypropylene (PP) using difficult-to-recycle mixed waste plastic, powered by Agilyx advanced recycling technology. Mixed waste plastics for this project would be sourced through Agilyx’s feedstock management company, Cyclyx International, Inc. In addition, this project is targeting circular PP with the necessary properties for demanding customer applications such as food packaging, consumer, and hygiene products.
