ACTPAC Project

ACTPAC aims to establish a complete industry-viable transformation route for the conversion of non-degradable plastic wastes into high value chemicals as well as to synthesise biodegradable polyesters with PE-like properties. Thus, a zero-pollution, bio-based solution to the existing environmental challenge is created, by keeping plastic wastes out of the environment, while reclaiming their values for a better circular bioeconomy. To this end, a series of technologies and innovative chemo-/biological transformation systems will be developed and demonstrated at pilot scale. Two novel arrays of monomers (value-added chemicals) with differing chain lengths will be developed. Correspondingly, a broad spectrum of polymer products with different properties and thus suitable for various application will be produced.
