Nanopurification- Plastics purification
Plastics are made up of numerous additives which represent a contamination challenge when they are recycled to give them a second life.
Pyrowave has developed a patented filtration process that is low in carbon and electric. The result is 100% traceable resins with applications identical to those of virgin resins.
The nanopurification technology clears plastics waste to make it suitable for applications. It recovers virgin resins from a variety of plastics containing various additives and contaminants. Thanks to our molecular separation process, we are able to remove additives like flame retardants (PS), metals (PVC), stabilizers and pigments (ABS) from most plastic types.
Pyrowave is the first to successfully apply this nanopurification technology to remove a wide variety of additives from used polymers, which are likely not recycled today, and supply purified, high-quality recycled plastics to a variety of industrial sectors such as construction, electronics, automotive, toys, packaging etc. This separation technique, based on differences in molecular sizes ensures control of the final purity of the polymer, and produces a resin equivalent to the virgin resin.
