Encapsulated polystyreen

EPS as a waste fraction

• EPS is raw material for new EPS
  • Processing steps:
  • Crumbling: 1,000 litres becomes 100 – 250 litres
  • Melting: 1,000 litres becomes 15 – 20 litres
• Benefits:

• No processing costs
• However, sales proceeds
• Much lower transport costs

Still to be arranged

• Where can it be located?
• Who is going to operate it
• Which companies are participating? With what volume?
• Organising collection.
• Funding?
