PET polymers may now be broken down into their constituent chemicals by GR3N’s novel MADE (Microwave Assisted Depolymerization) technology, which enables the creation of brand-new, premium PET pellets for usage in textiles and packaging. Compared to previous techniques, this alkaline hydrolysis-based procedure is more effective in handling impurities. EV vehicles
At Schneider’s location in Italy in March 2024, GR3N and the EcoStruxure Automation Expert presented MADE. The first industrial facility is planned in Spain and is estimated to process over 40,000 tons of PET trash a year. The plant’s modular architecture allows for future expansion. The IEC 61499 standard is the foundation of GR3N’s system, which facilitates smooth hardware-software integration for scalable and adaptable operations.
A few advantages of the partnership are lower engineering expenses, a quicker time to market, and the freedom to grow without vendor restrictions. The open automation system offers additional optimization options by streamlining control, improving data analytics, and integrating IT and operational operations. It also draws in the next generation of workers with its contemporary, IT-focused methodology. EV vehicles
With the first large-scale operation scheduled for 2027, this alliance seeks to expand quickly to additional locations, placing GR3N and Schneider Electric at the forefront of environmentally friendly plastic recycling.
