Victoria is a step closer to its first soft plastics recycling facility with EPA Victoria issuing a Development Licence to APR Chemcycle.
APR Chemcycle proposed to reprocess waste plastic by pyrolysis to generate commercial grade oil as product at a facility to be built at Rowsley Station Rd, Maddingley.
Once built and operational, the facility will be Victoria's first operational Advanced Chemical Recycling (ACR) facility, which will recycle soft plastics into oil to be used by the plastic manufacturing industry in the production of new plastic
The plastics reprocessed are "soft plastics" with Sustainability Victoria providing funding to APR https://www.sustainability.vic.gov.au/grants-funding-and-investment/grants-and-funding/funded-project-recycling-soft-plastics-into-plastic-crude-oil
