Catalysts for Valorisation of Organic Waste Mixed with Plastic
A significant amount of plastic waste is difficult to recycle due to contamination, mixing with other types of plastic and the use of multi-layer packaging. Chemical recycling is a promising method that can convert difficult to recycle plastics into fuel, carbon or petrochemical feedstocks in a cost-effective manner. The technology owner has develo -
Catalysts for On-site Treatment of Organic Waste Mixed with Plastic
There are mainly three methods of recycling plastic waste. Mechanical recycling, thermal recycling, and chemical recycling. A lot of plastic waste is, however, hard to recycle because it is mixed, contaminated, multi-layered, thus no longer mechanically recyclable. Thermal recycling is along with GHG emissions, high CAPEX and OPEX, centralised syst -
Recycling Plastics into Fuels and Chemicals Using Sunlight
This technology provides a more eco-friendly solution to convert non-biodegradable plastics into fuels and chemical feedstocks. In Singapore, about 96% of the plastics waste is incinerated, which contributes to Singapore's CO 2 emissions and aggravates global climate change. The remaining 4% is recycled only after the plastics have been cleaned and -
Catalyst for Green Biodiesel Production from Unrefined Feedstock
Biodiesel is a sustainable liquid biofuel originated from animal fats, vegetable oils or waste oils. This renewable energy source is biodegradable, non-toxic and carbon neutral with low sulfur content. Carbon neutrality is a concept in which the emission of carbon dioxide upon burning of biodiesel is balanced by the carbon dioxide uptake by plants -
Environmentally Friendly and Highly Efficient Multi-Fuel Power Generation System
This technology is related to the development of a highly innovative, energy efficient and environmentally friendly power production unit for decentralized (on or off grid) power generation. The unit has the capability for combined heat and power (CHP)production, as needed. The device is able to convert the fuel (LPG/NG/Biogas) into electrical and -
Innovative Plant Oil High Yield Production Platform
We consume around 185 million metric tonnes of plant, or vegetable, oil each year. There are practically unlimited market opportunities with this feedstock already used widely in human food and animal feed, industrial oleochemicals (plastics, lubricants etc), and biofuels. Future growth is primarily limited by production constraints such as land us -
Production of High Quality Biodiesel Fuel and Chemicals from Biomass Wastes
Biodiesel fuel (BDF) has been widely produced from palm oil in Asia, soy bean oil in the USA, canola and sunflower oil in EU. However, some scientists warned that the utilization of BDF produced from these otherwise edible oils are not effective, especially in terms of fighting against climate change. What are the suitable raw materials for BDF? In -
Fuel Cell for Consumer & Medical Electronics
This fuel cell technology fits discretely into consumer and medical electronics. It can recharge in seconds and run off-the-grid for years, as it does not require a power outlet. The fuel cell has been demonstrated in a hearing aid and is sutiable for personal devices.
