據烴加工網站1月28日報道 霍尼韋爾宣布打算與Avangard Innovative成立一家合資企業，在德克薩斯州建造一座先進的回收廠，該工廠將使用霍尼韋爾最近宣布的UpCycle工藝技術，將報廢塑料廢物轉化為可用于制造新塑料的可回收聚合物原料。

霍尼韋爾新的UpCycle工藝技術減少了在生產純塑料時對化石原料的需求，其目標是實現塑料的循環經濟。

Avangard Innovative是美洲最大的塑料回收商，將率先在美國部署UpCycle工藝技術。霍尼韋爾和Avangard打算組建一家合資企業，共同控股并運營位于德克薩斯州沃勒的Avangard天然氣處理廠。計劃中的先進回收廠預計將具備每年將30000公噸混合廢塑料轉化為霍尼韋爾回收聚合物原料的能力，預計2023年開始生產。

霍尼韋爾高性能材料與技術公司總裁兼首席執行官Vimal Kapur表示：“與具有回收和廢物管理經驗的公司合作，霍尼韋爾可以通過將回收技術帶到收集源頭，幫助關閉塑料供應鏈內的循環。UpCycle工藝技術擴展了可回收塑料的類型，包括原本無法回收的廢塑料，使霍尼韋爾能夠在推動循環塑料經濟方面發揮關鍵作用。”

當與其他化學和機械回收工藝結合使用時，以及收集和分類的改進，霍尼韋爾的UpCycle工藝技術有可能將可回收的塑料廢物數量從目前的15%增加到90%。

Avangard Innovative首席執行官里克·佩雷斯表示：“與霍尼韋爾合作建立一個聯合先進回收廠，使Avangard Innovative能夠通過將零廢物用于填埋場來強化其保護環境的使命。霍尼韋爾解決方案采用模塊化的工廠設計方法，實現了簡單的部署和安裝，同時在規模經濟性和當地產生的廢塑料數量之間取得了正確的平衡。”

Honeywell to supply tech for largest plastics recycler in U.S.

Honeywell announced its intent to form a joint venture with Avangard Innovative to build an advanced recycling plant in Texas. The facility will use Honeywell’s recently announced UpCycle Process Technology to transform end-of-life plastic waste into recycled polymer feedstock that can be used to create new plastics.

Honeywell’s new UpCycle Process Technology reduces the need for fossil feeds in the creation of virgin plastics, with the goal of enabling a circular economy for plastics.

Avangard Innovative is the largest plastics recycler in the Americas and will be the first to deploy the UpCycle Process Technology in the United States. Honeywell and Avangard intend to form a joint venture to co-own and operate a facility within Avangard’s NaturaPCR complex in Waller, Texas. The planned advanced recycling plant is expected to have the capacity to transform 30,000 metric tons of mixed waste plastics into Honeywell Recycled Polymer Feedstock per year. Production is anticipated to begin in 2023.

“Partnering with companies that have recycling and waste management experience allows Honeywell to help close the loop within the plastics supply chain by bringing the recycling technology onsite to the collection source,” said Vimal Kapur, president and chief executive officer of Honeywell Performance Materials and Technologies. “The UpCycle Process Technology expands the types of plastics that can be recycled to include waste plastic that would otherwise go unrecycled, enabling Honeywell to play a key role in driving a circular plastics economy.”

When used in conjunction with other chemical and mechanical recycling processes, along with improvements to collection and sorting, Honeywell’s UpCycle Process Technology has the potential to increase the amount of plastic waste that can be recycled to 90% from only 15% today1.

“Working with Honeywell on a joint advanced recycling plant allows Avangard Innovative to reinforce its mission to preserve and protect the environment by targeting zero waste to landfill,” said Rick Perez, CEO, Avangard Innovative. “The Honeywell solution employs a modular approach to plant design, enabling a straightforward deployment and installation, while striking the right balance between economy of scale and amount of waste plastic generated locally.”
