INEOS Styrolution, the global leader in styrenics, today discloses first results of the ResolVe project. The project team now has proof of concept of closed loop recycling. The process converts waste polystyrene back to pure styrene via a depolymerisation process, followed by a polymerisation process resulting in a quality identical to virgin polystyrene. The results show that polystyrene is very well recyclable.
