- The feasibility study will evaluate a greenfield plastics recycling facility in East Java.
- The project aims to produce high-quality recycled polyolefins from mixed polyolefin-rich plastic waste.
- The Subnational Climate Fund Technical Assistance funds the study.
- Local partners Pelita Mekar Semesta and Reciki Solusi Indonesia contribute expertise in waste management.
Project Overview
Borealis, Borouge, Pelita Mekar Semesta, Reciki Solusi Indonesia, and the Subnational Climate Fund are collaborating to establish a circular waste management ecosystem in Indonesia. The initiative focuses on creating a greenfield plastics recycling facility in East Java.
Feasibility Study
The project begins with a feasibility study funded by the Subnational Climate Fund Technical Assistance. This study will assess the viability of transforming mixed polyolefin-rich plastic waste into high-quality recycled polyolefins.
Local Collaboration
Local partners Pelita Mekar Semesta and Reciki Solusi Indonesia bring their expertise in waste management and recycling to the project. Their involvement is crucial for implementing solutions tailored to the Indonesian context.
Environmental Goals
The collaboration aims to catalyze the transition to a circular economy by using waste as a feedstock, reducing plastic pollution, and promoting sustainable practices. The project aligns with efforts to reduce marine litter and improve local economic development.
