One of the world’s most pressing priorities is to create and adopt an eco-friendly global circular economy that facilitates efficient and sustainable use of the Earth’s limited resources. Developing eco-friendly technology and high-value products is an important part of this. To address the issue of plastics, Hanwha is breathing new life into the material through our Plastics–to–Chemical (PTC) technology, which enables continuous recycling by extracting naphtha from waste plastics and reproducing them into basic raw materials through core catalysts and process technologies. We will also continue our research into materials such as ECO–DEHCH, an eco-friendly premium plasticizer, as well as with research into biodegradable and bio-based plastics and carbon molecular sieves.
