据烃加工网站1月28日报道 霍尼韦尔宣布打算与Avangard Innovative成立一家合资企业，在德克萨斯州建造一座先进的回收厂，该工厂将使用霍尼韦尔最近宣布的UpCycle工艺技术，将报废塑料废物转化为可用于制造新塑料的可回收聚合物原料。
霍尼韦尔新的UpCycle工艺技术减少了在生产纯塑料时对化石原料的需求，其目标是实现塑料的循环经济。
Avangard Innovative是美洲最大的塑料回收商，将率先在美国部署UpCycle工艺技术。霍尼韦尔和Avangard打算组建一家合资企业，共同控股并运营位于德克萨斯州沃勒的Avangard天然气处理厂。计划中的先进回收厂预计将具备每年将30000公吨混合废塑料转化为霍尼韦尔回收聚合物原料的能力，预计2023年开始生产。
霍尼韦尔高性能材料与技术公司总裁兼首席执行官Vimal Kapur表示：“与具有回收和废物管理经验的公司合作，霍尼韦尔可以通过将回收技术带到收集源头，帮助关闭塑料供应链内的循环。UpCycle工艺技术扩展了可回收塑料的类型，包括原本无法回收的废塑料，使霍尼韦尔能够在推动循环塑料经济方面发挥关键作用。”
当与其他化学和机械回收工艺结合使用时，以及收集和分类的改进，霍尼韦尔的UpCycle工艺技术有可能将可回收的塑料废物数量从目前的15%增加到90%。
Avangard Innovative首席执行官里克·佩雷斯表示：“与霍尼韦尔合作建立一个联合先进回收厂，使Avangard Innovative能够通过将零废物用于填埋场来强化其保护环境的使命。霍尼韦尔解决方案采用模块化的工厂设计方法，实现了简单的部署和安装，同时在规模经济性和当地产生的废塑料数量之间取得了正确的平衡。”

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.”
