Biofabrik - Model WASTX - Fully Automated Plastic Recycling Plant
Plastic is primarily derived from crude oil. In order to reverse the process, we began to focus on chemical recycling, particularly pyrolysis. After more than a decade of research and development, we achieved exactly that with our WASTX Plastic technology. In a continuous and automated way, post-consumer plastic waste can be recycled into several profitable outputs.

Product Details
The containerized, fully automated and highly profitable WASTX Plastic is capable of transforming plastic waste back into its liquid form: Oil. Each WASTX Plastic processes up to 5,000 kg of plastic waste per day and module.
The WASTX Plastic is container-based and designed to be applied anywhere.
The control technology has been perfected through years of development.
Worldwide delivery and support through a strong partner network.
Replacement for Fossil Fuel
The in-spec oil from recycled plastic can be profitably traded on the market or further processed for various applications, eg. new virgin plastics.
Areas of Application
High levels of contamination and moisture make it difficult to recycle the polyolefin based foil, which is why they are usually incinerated or landfilled. Thanks to the modular design of the WASTX Plastic, impurities and moisture can be minimized already in the pretreatment stage and remaining residues do not interfere with the robust chemical recycling process.
According to the Federal Environment Agency, around 85% of all plastic waste in Germany is so-called post-consumer waste, which usually cannot be recycled mechanically. Thanks to the pre-treatment stage, which is available separately, the WASTX Plastic is also able to process multi-layer films and contaminants such as paper labels and food residues.
The modular design of the WASTX Plastic allows individual pretreatment depending on the starting material. An upstream granulator also reduces hard plastic to the particle size required for the core process. The technology can thus be adapted to the requirements of the site and still remain easily scalable.
Ocean Plastic
Every year, about 10 million tons of plastic waste end up in our oceans – roughly equivalent to one truckload per minute. Solar radiation and decomposition often make mechanical recycling of marine plastics impossible. Chemical recycling offers a way to return even heavily deteriorated plastic to the raw material cycle.
