PLASCRED CIRCULAR INNOVATIONS INC. 
The Primus facility, a testament to PlasCred's commitment to the circular economy, was engineered for beta testing of PlasCred's unique upcycling process. To maximize flexibility, the process was designed to function with or without catalysts, ensuring optimal and consistent system parameters.
Initial tests, without utilizing catalysts, using polypropylene plastic beads as the primary material revealed outstanding results. The plant achieved yields of about 80%, producing high-quality zero sulphur green condensate that meets industry specifications.
Density @ 15°C /g cm-3 | Viscosity @ 7.5°C / mm2 s-1 | |
Polypropylene | 0.756 | 1.242 |
Polyethylene | 0.782 | 1.640 |
Mixed Plastics | 0.769-0.779 | 1.523-1.595 |
Enbridge Spec* | 0.600 – 0.775 | < 2 |
*The Enbridge Inc. specifications provide a benchmark indicating the desirable range of properties for materials to be used as pipeline diluents. Materials within these specifications are likely to perform better in pipeline transportation as they align with the established standards for density and viscosity, which are critical for ensuring smooth operation, minimizing friction, and maintaining the integrity of the pipeline infrastructure.

The insights and data gathered from the Primus testing will be instrumental in the construction of the inaugural PlasCred Maximus plant. This upcoming facility is designed to produce approximately 2,000 up to 10,000 barrels a day of zero sulphur green condensate and remove approximately 300 up to 1,300 metric tonnes a day of plastic waste from the environment while using minimal energy.
As PlasCred continues its revolutionary journey, the company is preparing for catalytic runs in the upcoming weeks. "Our primary aim is to transform unrecyclable plastic waste into pristine zero sulphur green condensate," stated
In their commitment to scalability and adaptability, PlasCred has planned rigorous testing over the next six months, incorporating a variety of mixed waste plastics and a proprietary blend of catalysts. This initiative solidifies PlasCred's dedication to addressing the global plastic waste challenge and reinforces its leadership in environmental sustainability.
PlasCred is at the forefront of rebalancing the future of plastics. The company is transforming plastic waste by granting it a valuable second life. With a vision of advancing towards a climate-positive future, PlasCred aspires to be among the largest advanced plastic waste upcycler's in
