首个废塑料高值化利用产业项目试产

Core Insights - The Guangdong Jieyang Dongyue Chemical 200,000 tons/year mixed waste plastic resource utilization demonstration project has successfully completed its trial production, marking a significant advancement in the chemical recycling of waste plastics [1][2] - The project utilizes an innovative "one-step" process for chemical recovery, which eliminates the need for complex sorting of low-value mixed waste plastics, achieving a product recovery rate of over 92% [1][2] Group 1 - The project is the world's first continuous and large-scale chemical recycling project for waste plastics, successfully passing industrial verification [1] - The "one-step" process allows for direct conversion of mixed waste plastics into high-value chemical raw materials, significantly reducing sorting costs [1] - When international crude oil prices are above $45 per barrel, the cost of producing basic chemical raw materials from waste plastics is comparable to that of using crude oil [1] Group 2 - The technology can replace approximately 100 million to 150 million tons of crude oil annually when processing 50 million tons of waste plastics, leading to a reduction of about 250 million tons of CO2 emissions [2] - The project aims to transform the petrochemical industry from reliance on crude oil to a model based on waste plastic resource recycling [2] - The long-term goal includes the establishment of a 3 million tons/year industrial base, creating a global hub for green circular economy in the chemical industry [2]
