Plas-TCat™, Bio-Tcat™, and Tex-TCat™

Anellotech has developed innovative technologies to recycle mixed plastics, fabrics, and sustainably produce bio-derived chemicals and fuels. Plast-TCat™ focuses on the chemical recycling of plastics, converting large volumes of mixed waste plastics directly into valuable chemicals. This technology offers a novel route to olefins and aromatics from low-value plastic waste feedstocks, capable of processing all major plastics using proprietary catalysts and a fluid bed reactor-regenerator system. It can potentially reduce CO2 emissions by up to 50% compared to monomers from fossil resources. Bio-TCat™ utilizes fluid bed catalytic pyrolysis to convert biomass from loblolly pine into bio-based benzene, toluene, and xylene, chemically identical to petroleum-derived counterparts. Tex-TCat™ aims to convert mixed textile waste into valuable commodity chemicals (BTX) commonly used in manufacturing virgin synthetic feedstocks, thereby reducing clothing waste destined for landfills or incineration. Anellotech aims to introduce cost-effective, sustainable technologies that reduce greenhouse gas emissions and promote circularity.
