The F\u00fcrth-based company Pruvia plans to build one of Europe's largest commercial plastic-to-oil plants at the Gendorf Chemical Park in Bavaria from summer 2025.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The process developed and patented by Pruvia converts non-recyclable mixed plastic waste into circular, non-fossil naphtha by means of a continuous pyrolysis process. This raw material recovered from waste<\/strong> can be used in the petrochemical industry to produce new plastics. The modern plant is intended to replace fossil raw materials and at the same time for the sustainable defossilisation of the chemical industry<\/strong> through environmentally friendly recycling management of plastics.<\/p>\n

With the Commissioning planned for the 4th quarter of 2026<\/strong> the plant in Gendorf will be able to process an annual capacity of 35,000 tonnes of mixed plastic waste. Pruvia is initially investing an amount in the mid double-digit million euro range in Gendorf and will employ around 30 people from the time of commissioning. The Doubling annual capacity to 70,000 tonnes is planned for 2028<\/strong>.<\/p>

\u201eThis investment decision is a strong signal for the attractiveness of the Gendorf Chemical Park. Pruvia is an absolute pioneer and offers a solution to one of the most pressing questions facing mankind: What to do with the huge amounts of plastic waste? Pruvia therefore fits in perfectly with the other highly specialised companies in the Gendorf Chemical Park. We want to further strengthen this position as a location for technological flagship companies by attracting young, dynamic and innovative companies from future-oriented industries.\u201c<\/p>\n

Chemical plastics recycling becomes competitive<\/h2>\n

In a industrial demo plant in Leuna<\/strong> Pruvia, in collaboration with the Fraunhofer Centre for Chemical-Biotechnological Processes CBP, has already proven the scalability of the technology. At the Gendorf Chemical Park, the company wants to utilise the special Competitiveness of its technology<\/strong> now demonstrate this with a large-scale commercial plant.<\/p>\n

\u201eThe marketability of chemical recycling has so far failed for two main reasons: High energy consumption and high operating costs. We have found the solution to both challenges. Our MLM-R technology is characterised by excellent energy efficiency and low operating costs.\u201c<\/p>\n

Martin Nitz<\/strong>, Pruvia co-founder and CEO<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Dr Andreas Kurz, COO at Pruvia, adds: \u201eWith our process, we are potentially setting an infinite material cycle in motion, as the naphtha from our plant is used to produce Always new product quality<\/strong> can be produced and recycled.\u201c<\/p>\n
