ADI chemicals newsletter: Waste plastic pyrolysis at turning point

Share this article

In the March 2021 edition of the ADI chemicals newsletter, we explored key developments shaping the global petrochemicals and sustainability landscape. Waste plastic pyrolysis is at a turning point as demand for high-quality oil surges, while petrochemical plants in Texas begin recovering from severe winter disruptions, causing price spikes. We highlighted Saudi Arabia’s approval of a major petrochemical complex, SK Global Chemical’s adhesive plant plans in China, and Japan’s net-zero 2050 roadmap. Circular economy advances include Austria’s HDPE recycling breakthrough, Repsol’s polyurethane recycling plant, and LG Chem’s sustainable packaging initiative with Innerbottle.
