Problem
The majority of plastic waste is not recycled in the U.S., leading to increased landfill waste and environmental pollution. Traditional recycling methods struggle to process hard-to-recycle plastics, limiting the reusability of these materials. This reliance on fossil fuels to create new plastics contributes to environmental degradation.
Solution
Resynergi offers a decentralized advanced recycling solution that converts hard-to-recycle plastic waste into its molecular building blocks, enabling infinite reusability. Their patented Continuous Microwave Assisted Pyrolysis (CMAP) technology uses microwaves to break down plastics into valuable feedstock for new plastic products. The modular system is designed for safe operation within local communities and can be scaled to meet the needs of Material Recovery Facilities. This approach reduces landfill waste, promotes a circular economy, and decreases reliance on petroleum-based plastics.
Target Audience
The primary customers are municipalities, waste management companies, and Material Recovery Facilities (MRFs) seeking to improve plastic recycling rates and reduce landfill waste.
