PVC in the mixed waste stream? No problem.
PVC in the waste mix? No problem. Together with VinylPlus®, we at ARCUS Greencycling Technologies have proven that PVC in plastic waste does not hinder the pyrolysis process—not even on an industrial scale.
Our results show:
✅ Blended plastics containing PVC can be processed safely
✅ The resulting pyrolysis oils meet petrochemical standards
✅ Even legacy additives (e.g., lead compounds in cable jackets) do not compromise quality
✅ Confirmed by industry partners and scientists (including Prof. Kevin Van Geem, Ghent University)
💡 A major step toward the efficient recycling of complex plastic waste—and another milestone on the path to a circular economy.
