Product roadmap

2018 2019 2021 2021 2022

We are doing the tests in a lab scale and studying the plastic sample (raw materials) behaviours.

Product roadmap / Stage Gate

20192018 We are in between two phases since we want to co develop to achieve an optimal -product market fit.

Product life cycle

The gases will be recirculated in the process.

The subproducts can be sold or used.

The crude oil can be refined into fuel (diesel, gasoline…)

and we can get monomers & polymers and make new

plastic.

We receive the plastic waste in our facilities

The plastic will be grinded and will enter the process. In the process we will get:

crude oil, gases & subproducts (example :

bitumen)

BlueBenu

This product life cycle is focused on the plastic to plastic approach.

Concept description Pyrolysis/ current methods

HTL Our uniqueness

● we can process mixed types of plastic unlike other methodologies

● cut the costs & time on sorting materials ● more supply opportunities / bigger impact ●

1 Mixed plastic types

● we can process contaminated plastics from the open environment or from hospitals

● we can also process plastics that are in degradation state due to weather or other factor

2 Contaminated plastic waste

● freedom to be deployed in small villages ● less negative environmental & social impact ● more opportunities (marit

3 Container size machine

Requirement specification (general)

Right temperature & pressure

Temperature & pressure need to be controlled during the whole process since they are crucial for the process to happen.

Also the pre-heating system needs to be fully functional for the process to work.

No metals or minerals in the process

Metals & minerals can cause interference in the process.

Some metals like aluminium can be accepted as a catalyst.

Plastic size

The plastics need to be around 0,5 millimeter to 1 millimeter. Bigger particles might clog the reactor and valvules which will cause the process to be stopped.

Requirement specification (especifics) - The storage area will accept the waste plastic delivered to the facility, if the plastic does not meet the

quality requirements a first pretreatment of bulk grinding to achieve metal separation is performed. - The feed needs to be fine ground to powder prior loading into the reactor. - If the reactor has been idle a start procedure is needed followed by system health check up:

pressure control stable, temperature requirements met throughout the reactor, pumping system delivering expected fluxes; when all subsystems of the reactor prove to be functional loading of the feed follows.

- The plastic powder is fed to the mixing unit which mixes vigorously the powder (30%w/w) and water (70%w/w) to produce a relatively homogeneous suspension (slurry) which can be pumped into the system between 280-320 atm.

- The slurry is heat up to 90C and mixed with preheated supercritical water (500C) while entering the main heating unit

- After reaction follows discharge, water recirculation and flammable gas recirculation, product collection.
