Circular Economy of Plastics
Temperature and pressure driven recombination of plastics and organics into virgin chemicals to be reused in current industry.
Plastic waste accumulation in landfills and oceans.
Municipalities, factories, NGOs,
Hydrothermal liquefaction of unsorted plastics and organics. The feesdtock gets converted into virgin petrochemicals that can be reused in the current industry by refinery plants.
- Increase production of renewable and recyclable raw materials for products and packaging
- Enable recovery and recycling of complex products
- Prototype
- New application of an existing technology
It is a continuous process that avoids residue accumulation and reactor clogging. (I would like to get and NDA before continuing)
Hydrothermal Liquefaction
- Machine Learning
Cause it up-cycles waste and closes the loop for a circular economy of plastics.

We are still in the R&D stage. Prototyping and testing will take another few years (dependently on funding).
We need to raise between 50000 to 200000 euro in soft funds to properly develop the technology. Then we could aim for 11m euro for up-scaling to commercial scale reactor and go to market.
We need funding to be able to buy tailor made equipment and test the results.
Applying for soft funds and searching for mentors that are in the field to maximize success rate.
- Hybrid of for-profit and nonprofit

8 interns
Manufacturing partners in Italy (Spike Renewables)
Extensive knowledge in the field, large reactor in use (needs upgrading though).
Spike Renewables is our partner and equipment manufacturer.
B2B & B2G
We perceive 2 income streams by accepting the waste and by selling the product to refineries. Plus our customers can benefit from green certificates.
Solve can connect us with professionals in the field who would be eager to mentor our progress and help us set up the right environment for fund raising.
- Technology
- Funding and revenue model
Any organization that is professionally working with Hydrothermal Liquefaction.
We need to invest considerable amounts of funds for purchasing equipment.
We would give our CEO Kamila and COO Sarah training in various business fields.
