SynPet - Circular Naphtha Substitute for Plastic Waste Recycling
SynPet S.A. specializes in an innovative approach to plastic waste management, offering a circular naphtha substitute derived from end-of-life plastics using their proprietary TCP technology. Unlike traditional methods that demand clean, segregated, or dried plastics, SynPet's technology accommodates all types of plastic waste without pre-treatment, including those previously non-recyclable. This substitute is a direct replacement for conventional pyrolysis oil and can be seamlessly integrated into cracker feedstock, providing consistent performance and value. By doing so, SynPet significantly reduces reliance on fossil fuels and decreases CO2 emissions annually by 258,000 tons. This transformative technology enables industries within petrochemicals, packaging, and consumer goods to maintain production quality while simultaneously contributing to a circular economy, thus averting environmental damage from landfills and incinerators, and fostering greener urban environments through partnerships with municipal agencies.From Plastic Waste to Circular Naphtha Substitute
SynPet’s breakthrough circular naphtha substitute is a high-quality alternative to standard pyrolysis oil. Unlike conventional options, it requires no additional upgrading, enabling direct blending into cracker feedstock.
Delivering consistent performance, seamless integration, and superior value, our circular naphtha substitute serves as a key building block in the first stage of circular plastic production.
Our unique TCP technology ensures that all waste plastics, including those that cannot be recycled by mechanical recycling or other methods, such as pyrolysis and gasification, are recycled into a miraculous product, circular naphtha substitute.
Since SynPet's unique TCP technology can recycle waste plastics into circular naphtha substitute without sacrificing quality, its products have the same quality as conventional naphtha and can be directly processed by petrochemical companies.
Plastics have unique properties, such as lightness, durability, thermal and electrical insulation, and low production cost.
This is exactly why it is used in many sectors, such as automotive, packaging, and health, and as a result, its production is increasing day by day. Global plastic production reached 460 million tons in 2019, while it was only 2 million tons in 1950.
Unfortunately, 91% of the plastics we use cannot be recycled using conventional methods, and only 1% can be recycled multiple times.
Even when plastic is recyclable, if there are contaminants, such as food waste or sludge, it is not recycled due to clean-up costs and is sent to incinerators or landfills like other non-recyclable plastics.
But now, the dynamics of traditional plastic waste management are changing. SynPet has created the most comprehensive circular economy model ever for plastic waste management.
-
Until now, being sent to incinerators or landfills was considered the fate of non-recyclable, end-of-life plastics. So it was necessary to repeatedly produce new plastics, and naturally, naphtha.
-
Rapid plastic production is a major threat to environmental sustainability, as it increases both fossil fuel use and CO2 emissions.
-
But now, all plastic waste management habits are being redesigned by the unique technology of SynPet.
-
All plastic waste, including the ones that have never been recycled before, such as shredder residue, can be reintegrated into the plastic life cycle.
-
While reducing fossil fuel consumption, SynPet also saves 258,000 tons of CO2 emissions per year compared to landfills and incineration.
Current technologies, such as pyrolysis and gasification, can process limited plastic waste and reintroduce it into the circular economy, and they also require that plastic waste be very clean, segregated, or completely dried.
Since the pre-treatment of waste is very costly and inefficient, most plastic waste is sent directly to the landfill or incineration plant without recycling.
TCP technology requires no pre-treatment and can process all types of plastics unsorted and wet, including those that are currently considered impossible to recycle.
