Whilst all eyes were focused on the All Energy Conference, history was quietly being made in Shetland with the processing of plastics found in most island communities, These materials would normally find their way to local landfill sites or further shipped to the mainland and probably end up on similar landfill sites thus the problem being moved elsewhere resulting increase of carbon foot print. We have processed GRP Wind turbine material, Subsea mooring line, HDPE used in the Aquaculture industry, Fishing nets, salmon nets, retail plastic and converted this into a bio fuel / energy which could be made available locally again reducing the local carbon footprint and the current costs of landfill or shipping costs. By implementing our technology, it would help compliance with SDG 12 “ landfills also produce carbon dioxide and water vapor, and trace amounts of oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen, and non-methane organic compounds. These gases can also contribute to climate change.

This game changing containerized technology is a perfect solution which has the ability to be located at strategic locations such as the new green hubs that are being created with little thought to consider the option to look at beyond recycling and by converting the plastic waste into a product which could be used locally.

We have had our process and technology reviewed by Subject matter experts based upon of the (TRA) originally defined by NASA during the 1970’s. The use of TRLs enables consistent, uniform discussions between people and companies of technical maturity across different types of technology. A technology’s TRL is determined during a Technology Readiness Assessment (TRA) that examines program concepts, technology requirements, and demonstrated technology capabilities. TRLs are based on a scale from 1 to 9 with 9 being the most mature technology. The European Union has adopted the TRL scale in 2010 and it has been summarized in ISO 16290:2013 our technology has been determined as a TRL 7. Our technology will also help our Scandinavian partners to comply with the Norwegian standard NS-EN 17988 and , SN-CEN/TS 18101.

We are currently working very close with well-known EPC contractor and academia both in the UK and Scandinavia with a view to scale the technology up with a view to export the technology globally both from and onshore and marine based perspective. We are part of Project 14: Co-conversion of Plastic and Biomass – Turquoise Hydrogen and looking to prove proof of concept by third quarter this year.
