Agilyx AS (AGLX) -Mitsubishi Chemical announces successful trial of purification process linked to Agilyx Technology for recycling acrylic, finalizing the end-to-end technology to be used in a first-in-class commercial scale plant in Europe.
Agilyx AS (AGLX) -Mitsubishi Chemical announces successful trial of purification process linked to Agilyx Technology for recycling acrylic (plexiglass) back to virgin equivalent material, finalizing the end-to-end technology to be used in a first-in-class commercial scale plant in Europe.
•Acrylic / PMMA / Plexiglass, has a total market size of
more than 1.3 million tons, equivalent to ~40 Agilyx systems
OSLO, Norway, May 6, 2022 - Agilyx (Euronext Growth Oslo: AGLX.OL: OTCQX:
AGXXF) partner Mitsubishi Chemical has announced positive results following purification trials using Agilyx technology. As part of Mitsubishi's project to make acrylic (commonly known as plexiglass) fully circular, the company recently ran purification trials for methyl methacrylate (MMA, a building block of PMMA) recycled from waste acrylic (PMMA).
After proving that molecular recycling is possible on a large scale with Agilyx technology, using a variety of feedstocks (coloured and clear PMMA, extruded and cast PMMA, with post-industrial and post-consumer waste), Mitsubishi recently completed refinement trials to test the purity of the final product. The purification process worked so effectively at removing contaminants that the result was recycled MMA with the same purity as virgin MMA.

About Agilyx
Agilyx is a technology company that enables customers to recycle
difficult-to-recycle post-use plastics to high value, virgin-equivalent
products. With a focus on diversion and conversion of plastic waste, Agilyx is
uniquely positioned with a molecular recycling technology offering and an
integrated feedstock solution by way of Cyclyx, an innovative feedstock
management consortium of partners that drives up global plastic recycling rates
by chemically fingerprinting plastic waste and matching it to appropriate
recycling processes. Agilyx was the first to establish a commercial scale closed
loop plastic-to-plastic chemical recycling facility and holds over 17 patents.
Agilyx conversion technology utilizes pyrolysis without a catalyst and can
convert mixed waste plastic to naphtha and fuels or depolymerize specific
plastics such as polystyrene and PMMA (acrylic) back into virgin-quality
products. Learn more at www.agilyx.com.
