- Chemical recycling of polyurethane (PU) from end-of-life vehicles (ELVs) is technically feasible, although several challenges still need to be addressed. One of iPRACS’s key research areas focuses on advancing the chemical recycling of PU waste streams and overcoming the hurdles on the path to industrialization. Recently, EURO-MOULDERS published a status report (https://lnkd.in/p/eBuvjvup) on the recyclability of polyurethane foam from end-of-life vehicles (ELVs), prepared by dr. Stephan Wendel. The report highlights the current
- Yes, also polyurethane leather can - as most materials - in principle be recycled. However, Zoë De Herdt is resolving (1) the effect of the additional complexities in formulations, (2) the scale required to balance additional downstream separations, and (3) potential integrations with upcoming polyurethane and polyester depolymerization platforms.
