Breaking the Wall of Plastic Waste

Poliloop

Global Call Winner Science Start-Ups

Nominated by:

BMW Foundation Herbert Quandt


Presented by:

Liz Madaras

Poliloop

Hungary

We developed a microbial cocktail that degrades, metabolizes, and mineralizes fossil-based plastics. Our process is applicable for several types of single-use plastics (PET, PP, LDPE, HDPE, PS, CPE, EVA, composite, and multilayer packaging -all tested) and can operate under suboptimal conditions. The end-product is a non-toxic sludge that can be used as a soil improver. This is comparable to how natural polymers are recycled infinitely in nature.
