Eni, Versalis and COREPLA (the National Consortium for the Collection, Recycling and Recovery of Plastic Packaging) aim to provide a practical and sustainable solution to the recovery of plastic packaging waste on a national scale.
They have signed an agreement that will see them pool their expertise to collect and recycle plastic packaging, with a particular focus on non-mechanically recyclable plasmix. The agreement aims to launch a study plan that will exploit all the plasmix fractions available in the COREPLA chain. Versalis is, in fact, in the process of designing a first chemical recycling plant using the pyrolysis technology and set to be built in Mantua.
COREPLA will make a vital contribution to determining the availability and composition of the plasmix managed through its chain at a national level with a view to making it compatible with the various requirements of the technologies involved.
