Introduction - turning “problem” FOGs into opportunity High-impurity waste fats and oils are abundant and cheap, but they challenge conventional pretreatment. BioFlux™ converts and cleans these feeds into hydrotreating-ready material while minimizing contaminants and oxygen content - allowing refiners to reliably monetize hardest-to-use streams, including Category 1 tallow. What feedstocks are in scope? Used Cooking Oil (UCO) Distillers Corn Oil (DCO) Soybean oil and palm oil

Introduction Pyrolysis oils distilled from mixed plastic waste offer a potential goldmine for circularity, but only if they are upgraded to meet the stringent purity demands of modern chemical plants and refineries. This essential upgrade step hydrotreating is delivered at its most effective by Sulzer’s advanced MaxFlux™ technology. Why hydrotreat pyrolysis oil? Unpurified pyrolysis oil contains high levels of sulfur, nitrogen, halogens (like chlorine), oxygenates, and metals

Introduction Plastic pollution is a mounting global crisis, with millions of tons of waste entering landfills and the environment every year. Advanced chemical recycling especially pyrolysis offers a breakthrough path to convert even the most mixed and contaminated plastics into valuable resources. But the true transformation happens with Sulzer’s advanced purification technologies, designed to process pyrolysis oil (Pyoil) into market-ready, high-specification hydrocarbon st

Introduction Plastics are woven into the fabric of modern life, but plastic waste is one of the planet’s most pressing environmental challenges. As governments, consumers, and industries push for true circularity, advanced solutions for transforming waste plastics into valuable resources are more critical than ever. Sulzer’s MaxFlux™ hydrotreating technology stands at the forefront of this movement, enabling the efficient and economical upgrading of plastic pyrolysis oils (PP
