Recycling Technologies provides a machine called the RT7000 that uses an advanced thermal process to recycle unsorted mixed plastic waste into a valuable hydrocarbon product called Plaxx. The RT7000 addresses the large and growing problem of plastic waste by providing an economically viable and environmentally friendly solution. It converts mixed plastic waste, which would otherwise be landfilled or incinerated, into Plaxx, a solid fuel that can be used to produce new plastics or fuel various industrial processes.

- 1. Cost-effective solutions for mixed plastic waste
- 2. Recycling Technologies provides a machine and a service to recycle unsorted plastic waste. Our flagship machine, the RT7000 utilises our advanced Fluidised Bed Reactor, the WarwickFBR™ . This system converts unsorted Mixed Plastic Waste – that is currently disposed of in landfill or incinerators – into a valuable low sulphur hydrocarbon we call Plaxx™ . Our system offers the lowest cost environmentally responsible solution for Mixed Plastic Waste.
- 3. We are drowning in the plastic waste that is accumulating on land and in our oceans. Recycling Technologies helps turn waste plastic into a valuable resource for today's and future generations. Recycling Technologies’ machine, the RT7000 produces a valuable hydrocarbon product called PlaxxTM . Solid at room temperature, PlaxxTM is easily transported for multiple uses. The problem of Mixed Plastic Waste Requires a commercially viable solution Waste Plastic is a truly versatile and valuable material, so it’s not surprising that its production and use is growing exponentially. However, the acute problem of plastic waste is forcing companies to use less than ideal methods to discard it. They either bury it, burn it or in some cases, dump it. At Recycling Technologies, we offer a recycling system that is an environmentally beneficial and commercially attractive alternative. Plastic 300 250 200 150 100 50 Mtonne WORLD EUROPE 1950 2010
- 4. Recycling Technologies has developed an innovative modular solution which converts Mixed Plastic Waste into Plaxx™ . MODULE 1.Unsorted Mixed Plastic Waste is shredded and dried using standard techniques. MODULE 2.The Mixed Plastic Waste undergoes Advanced Thermal Treatment, producing a hot hydrocarbon gas from which contamination is removed. MODULE 3.The clean gas is condensed to form a clean low sulphur hydrocarbon we call Plaxx TM . Our modular design allows us to take the solution to the problem avoiding the need for transporting waste. SMALLER SCALE – A DISTRIBUTED SOLUTION The RT7000 is sized to allow it to be located at sites with Mixed Plastic Waste. This distributed approach removes the need for costly transportation to centralised facilities. MODULAR CONSTRUCTION The modular design allows assembly and testing in our factory which is less costly and disruptive for clients than on-site construction. This concept also facilitates financing/leasing as systems can easily be relocated. PATENTED TECHNOLOGY This unique approach to Mixed Plastic Waste has been patented in the UK and international applications have been filed. Plaxx™ PlaxxTM is a valuable hydrocarbon product. Solid at room temperature, Plaxx TM is easily transported for multiple uses. It can be used as a feedstock for more plastic, closing the virtuous circle. Alternatively it is a Slack Wax equivalent and can be sold globally for this purpose. In making Plaxx TM , a valuable commodity product, Mixed Plastic Waste has been recycled. Alternatively Plaxx TM is a low sulphur Heavy Fuel Oil, which can be used for heating, power generation or marine propulsion. This flexibility allows Mixed Plastic Waste to be recycled in the most commercially and environmentally beneficial way. The practical approach to recycling plasticIntroducing the RT7000 TM PlaxxTM We are really excited that the RT7000 will allow plastic to enter the Circular Economy.

- 6. How does it work We are witnessing a sea change in the economic case of this conversion and Recycling Technologies is at the forefront of delivering commercial solutions. PETER JONES OBE ENVIRONMENTALIST “It is evident that this technology should have financial, environmental and economic benefits, not only for Swindon Borough Council but further afield as well.” BERNIE BRANNAN, BOARD DIRECTOR, SERVICE DELIVERY, SWINDON BOROUGH COUNCIL The RT7000 is being installed at Swindon Commercial Services. SUSTAINABILITY AS A SERVICE Recycling Technologies is working with companies that currently have the problem of Mixed Plastic Waste. We will provide an RT7000 on suitable customer sites and the personnel to recycle Mixed Plastic Waste as a service, removing the need for our customers to worry about the operations. Our aim is to make recycling Mixed Plastic Waste the easy and profitable option for our customers. Who is this solution for? MATERIAL RECYCLING FACILITIES with significant quantities of residual plastic waste after PET and HDPE etc have been removed. PAPER & CARDBOARD RECYCLING MILLS that have mill reject material. This does contain some cardboard fibre but is predominantly a wide mixture of plastic packaging and aluminium that can be separated by the Recycling Technologies’ innovative process. RETAIL DISTRIBUTION CENTRES Packaging from retail outlets is returned to the distribution centres. Significant quantities of plastic are currently generated and disposed of, however this RDC material can be processed and recycled. ANAEROBIC DIGESTION plants produce volumes of mixed plastic packaging waste after the bio-material has been removed for the digestor. We have successfully trialed material directly from the output of food waste AD plant. SUITABLE SITES Ideally customers need to have space to incorporate a layout such as above within a covered area. If space is restricted some of the layout can be housed externally. COMPLIANCE Emissions from the RT7000 comply with the all applicable legislation, Waste Incineration Directives (WID) do not apply as waste is not being combusted. 12M 20M 25M “

Technology Partners Recycling Technologies has taken a university project into a proven process and commercial product. Now, working with a range of university and industrial partners, the RT7000 is the definitive solution for Mixed Plastic Waste. Financial Support In addition to Recycling Technologies’ own substantial investment and resources, our drive to recycle Mixed Plastic Waste is shared by a range of government bodies and institutions who have provided financial assistance for the development of the RT7000 and PlaxxTM . The process offers a very attractive financial proposition, eliminating costly landfill and disposal, with a sustainable recycled product. The Market Recycling Technologies directly addresses a massive market: solving financial, practical and environmental problems. There is substantial customer demand with work currently in progress for ACE, Swindon Borough Council and other materials recovery facilities (MRF). Recycling Technology provides the most economically beneficial solution to the problem of Mixed Plastic Waste for markets globally. ADRIAN HAWORTH MARKETING DIRECTOR “
