BBC wall-to-wall coverage for Clean Planet Peninsula project

#ENERGY
Clean Planet Energy (CPE) builds infrastructure to enable the sustainable use of plastics, and reduction of carbon emissions.
Clean Planet Energy's ecoPlants convert hard-to-recycle plastics into ultra-low-sulfur fuels and circular naphtha. CPE's facilities reduce the dependence of fossil-based products in both transportation and the production of new plastics. The ecoPlants utilise the IP and patents from Clean Planet Technologies.
CPE is currently constructing and permitting ecoPlants in locations all over the world.

ecoPlant

> Input
One Clean Planet ecoPlant is designed to process 20,000 tonnes of hard-to-recycle waste plastics every year (60 tons/day).​
< Output
Each ecoPlant produces over 100,000 barrels (~14k tons) of ultra-low-carbon fuels and/or circular naphtha, annually.​
Technology
An ecoPlant uses a combination of Pyrolysis and CPE's patented SAFe Hydroprocessing Technology, among other proprietary designs.

waste plastics
Of the 400 million tonnes of plastic produced worldwide every year, over 70% is discarded within 12 months. Only 8% of this is ever recycled, meaning over 200 million tonnes of plastic ends up in landfill, incineration, or in our oceans, every year.
Plastic offers numerous benefits. Plastic reduces food waste through packaging, saves lives in healthcare applications, and can extend the lifespan of various products. However, the improper handling of plastic waste and insufficient infrastructure for its disposal pose significant challenges.
A CPE ecoPlant can process and recycle almost any plastic, stopping this waste from entering our environment:
#1 - PET
Soft drink bottles, fruit juice containers, cooking oil bottles, water bottles.
Recycled by traditional recycling services

CPE choose not to accept as sustainable alternatives exist
#2 - HDPE
Milk jugs, cleaning agents, shampoo bottles, films, bleaching agents.
Not widely recycled by traditional services

CPE ecoPlants accept & recycle all types of HDPE
#3 - PVC
Electrical appliances, thermal insulation, banners, buoyancy aids, some toys.
Not widely recycled by traditional services

Not currently accepted in Clean Planet ecoPlants
#4 - LDPE
Most films, shopping bags, highly-resistant sacks and most wrappings.
Not widely recycled by traditional services

CPE ecoPlants accept & recycle all types of LDPE
#5 - PP
Bottle tops, biscuit wrappers, containers, plant pots, drinking straws, lunch boxes.
Not widely recycled by traditional services

CPE ecoPlants accept & recycle all types of PP
#6 - PS
Egg & food boxes, fast food trays, disposable cups, & packaging foam.
Not widely recycled by traditional services

CPE ecoPlants accept & recycle all types of PS
#7 - The Rest
Nylon, fiber textiles, polycarbonate (cups, bottles) & components
Not widely recycled by traditional services

CPE ecoPlants accept & recycle all types of #7
CONTAMINANTS
Dirt, Water, Food-Waste, Moulds and more
Requires 99% clean plastics before processing

Able to process waste plastics with 15% contaminants.

circular products
Tomorrow 1.2 billion CO2-emitting road trips will take place, 100,000+ flights will depart, 75,000+ cargo & fishing ships will set sail, and over 1 million tonnes of new plastics will be manufactured. All of these require hydrocarbons (e.g. fossil fuels).
Last year around 43 billion tonnes of CO2e, NOx and SOx emissions were released into the atmosphere.
Clean Planet ecoPlants produce circular alternatives, reducing the need to extract new hydrocarbon products from the ground; lowering CO2e lifecycle emissions.

sustainability
Clean Planet Energy’s ecoPlants recover waste products, creating liquid fuels and circular-products. The process minimises the carbon emissions associated with conventional hydrocarbon usage and refining.
Clean Planet Energy commissioned a 3rd party peer-reviewed study with a focus on quantifying the potential reduction in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions that can be achieved by producing Clean Planet's products from waste plastics, compared to that of conventional fossil-based products.
