SABIC & Jessa Hospital achieve successful step towards creating circular polymers based on advanced recycling of used medical plastic

In a TRUCIRCLE™ collaboration project with Jessa Hospital, Belgium, SABIC has successfully achieved an important step towards creating circular polymers based on advanced recycling of used medical plastic.SABIC, a global leader in the chemical industry, has successfully demonstrated the feasibility of recycling used medical plastic back into the medical materials stream. The project was initiated together with the dialysis department at Jessa Hospital, one of the largest non-university medical cluster in the Limburg region of Flanders, Belgium. Serving as a pilot proof-of-concept, used medical plastic generated at Jessa’s hospitals was converted to pyrolysis oil in an advanced recycling process, delivering circular feedstock for SABIC’s production of TRUCIRCLE™ polymers in medical grade quality with same performance, purity and physiological safety as virgin-based medical grade polymers. This is indispensable for medical approvals by regulators.
