About this project

The description is as the source gives it.

The LARS project builds Europe's first large-scale integrated pre-treatment and chemical recycling plant to convert post-consumer mixed plastic waste into pyrolysis oil, a sustainable naphtha substitute for producing circular polymers. The facility will process up to 100 kt/yr of waste, yielding over 40 kt/yr of pyrolysis oil with more than 115% relative GHG emission reduction and avoiding 1.75 Mt CO2eq over the first 10 years. It supports EU recycled content regulations, creates jobs, and promotes circular economy models.

Statuses, countries and reductions are as the public source states them, and may be out of date.
