Intro


Patented in the name of nature.

“Nature only knows a closed-loop economy. And that has been working for millions of years.”

Will the world run out of raw materials soon?

 

The answer is simple:
Yes and no.

Yes, if we go on like this.

No, if we no longer consider waste as waste, but as valuable raw material.

We are consuming today as if there was no tomorrow. If we continue to waste our resources at today’s rate, we will need more than two planets by 2050. That is the unmistakable forecast of the European Commission in its “Roadmap for a Resource Efficient Europe”.

Our solution: Closed loops are the model for a world without plastic-waste and lack of resources – just like in nature.

Protecting the environment and the climate as a business model for the future.

 

We stand for investments into a global distribution of sustainable environmental technologies. We are absolutely convinced that only production processes with a closed material loop will be successful in a world with increasingly limited resources.

Our solution
Recovery of valuable resources in a closed-loop process.

ARCUS 5.0 SERIES

Highly functional. Highly effective. Highly profitable.

 

There is no more waste and no squandering of resources. With the ARCUS processing plant, you can process a large proportion of mixed plastic waste back into valuable resources.

 
 
 

INPUTS

PE・PP・PS・ABS・PVC・PET・and most others

OUTPUTS

Feedstock for the petrochemical industry.

 

250 kg - 800 kg plastic waste per hour → 150 kg - 500 kg ARCUS-Liquids per hour

Source: Screening LCA (Sphera Solutions GmbH, 2018) * Evaluated indicator: Climate change midpoint, excluding biogenic carbon (v1.09) [kg CO₂ eq.] (ILCD/PEF) * Values calculated with GaBi Software 8.7, SP36
  • The main comparison is between the ARCUS Technology and Incineration.

  • Synergies between mechanical recycling and chemical recycling (ARCUS) are desired.

  • ARCUS offers a superior follow-up alternative process by substituting Incineration of residues from mechanical recycling.

Source: Screening LCA (Sphera Solutions GmbH, 2018) * Evaluated indicator: Primary energy demand from renewable and non renewable resources (net cal. value) [MJ] * values calculated with GaBi Software 8.7, SP36

All technologies allow primary energy savings (therefore negative values) through energy (electricity, heat) and material credits (naphtha, virgin plastics).

The ARCUS process is superior to thermal recovery (incineration) in terms of both CO₂ balance and primary energy demand.
