Materials News Vlissingen, the Netherlands’ North Sea Port. The plant will be built upon US-based Alterra Energy's thermochemical liquefaction technology. Elsewhere, Anglo-Dutch gas/oil company Shell’s corporate venture arm and BlueAlp Holding have formed partnership to develop, expand and deploy BlueAlp’s plastic waste to chemical feedstock technology, which has already been developed to a commercial scale. The technology transforms tough to recycle plastic wastes into a recycled feedstock, such as pyrolysis oil that can be used to make sustainable chemicals. Shell's goal of recycling 1 million tonnes/year of plastic waste in its global chemicals plants by 2025 will be aided by this investment. Blue Alp/Shell’s joint venture will build two new conversion units in the Netherlands under the terms of the agreement, with Shell taking a 21.25% equity stake in BlueAlp. To start-up by 2023, these units are expected to convert more than 30 kilotonnes/year of plastic waste and supply 100% of the pyrolysis oil as feedstock to Shell's Moerdijk and Rhineland crackers. Shell, which has had a successful pilot using pyrolysis oil at the Moerdijk petrochemicals plant since August 2021, along with increased use of recycled feed at its Norco petrochemical complex in the US since November 2019, is looking to licensing two more units for use in
