A disruptive plastic recycling technology

Our photoelectrochemical process combines light and electrochemistry to convert 100% mixed post consumer plastic waste (including PET, HDPE, LDPE, PP, and PVC) selectively into renewable chemicals via oxidation-reduction reactions.

Our vision

We want to reduce carbon emissions by diverting plastic waste from landfills and our environment by transforming it into renewable chemicals. By simplifying traditional chemical production pathways and replacing fossil fuel-based inputs, we reduce the industry’s reliance on scarce resources and lower carbon emissions. This approach not only cuts costs across interconnected chemical production processes but also creates a more sustainable and efficient chemical manufacturing ecosystem.
