A process for recycling plastic waste from the sea has been dubbed “Green Plasma“.
A process for recycling marine plastic waste has been dubbed “Green Plasma.” It converts fishing nets left on the seabed, as well as various types of ropes and polystyrene boxes, into syngas, a fuel that can be used to generate electricity in ports and waste collection areas. According to initial tests, the process can convert up to one hundred kilograms of marine plastic waste into syngas daily, including the most difficult to recycle. This is excellent news, considering that up to 12 million tons of plastic are estimated to end up in the seas each year, causing serious problems for marine ecosystems.
