Descripción del proyecto
OpenLOOP is delivering a novel chemical recycling technology that:
- Can be used to degrade any mixture and blend of PET (polyethylene terephthalate) plastic and CELLULOSE waste.
- As a final output yields high-value feedstock: 5-HMF (5-hydroxymethylfurfural), LA (Levulinic acid) H2 (hydrogen) and rTA (recycled Terephthalic Acid).
- Is clean and can be successfully implemented in industrial environment.
The OpenLOOP technology consists of several IOS’s proprietary processing steps involving chemical procedures: enzymatic hydrolysis to separate PET and CELLULOSE, neutral hydrolysis to depolymerise PET, rTA purification, dehydration to extract 5-HMF and finally, 5-HMF and LA purification.
In the OpenLOOP project we intend to mature the technology, integrate it into industrial environment – IOS’s DEMO plant, automate procedures to make them safe and simple to operate, validate it, engineer process steps to deliver optimal productivity, design commercial packages, develop the supply chain
