Environmentally conscious bioplastics in 2016
According to industry insiders, in 2016, bioplastics promoted the environmental awareness of the plastics industry as never before. So, what are the compelling new developments in the bioplastics industry this year?
New plastic economy
In early 2016, a report entitled “New Plastics Economy: Rethinking the Future of Plastics†was released at the World Economic Forum in Davos. The report outlines a revolutionary new way of dealing with global plastic waste streams, especially global plastic packaging waste. The report, written by the MacArthur Foundation, calls for a circular economy principle for these wastes to be reused, which can change the plastics economy and completely reduce emissions to the ocean and other negative externalities.
Environmentally conscious bioplastics in 2016
This report focuses on creating efficient post-processing methods for plastics; it significantly reduces the flow of plastics into natural systems, especially the oceans. The MacArthur Foundation announced in its report that it will pioneer the cross-value chain global dialogue mechanism to promote changes to the new plastics economy. This move brings together key stakeholders in the entire plastic packaging chain, starting with packaging to rethink and redesign the future of plastics. Since the establishment of the organization, members have grown steadily. At the upcoming World Economic Forum in January 2017, the new plastics economy will showcase its latest research to business and government leaders.
New biopolyester
This year, many innovative bioplastics have also attracted attention: Avantium, the biochemical company based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, pioneered a new bio-polyester, PEF, and announced that it will start building a capacity of 50,000 tons. / Year's model factory to produce PEF precursor - FDCA. The surprise of this announcement is that the new model plant will be jointly built with the German chemical giant BASF and will be located at BASF's integrated production base in Antwerp, Belgium. The two companies said the goal was to build the world's leading FDCA and PEF plants. The potential of this material is huge, and if successful, the PET bottles that are currently in use may be eliminated – although PEF will also face the competitive pressure of PTF. PTF is also an innovative bio-polyester that has greatly improved gas barrier properties compared to PET. DuPont Industrial Life Sciences and Archer Daniels Midland have jointly developed a fructose-based furan dicarboxymethyl ester and DuPont's patented bio-propylene glycol to produce this new bio-polyester.
PBS bioplastic
As a joint venture between PTT and Mitsubishi Chemical, PTTMCC is opening the world's first biopolybutylene succinate plant, which is expected to begin operation in 2017. As a degradable substitute for polyethylene, bio-PBS can be naturally decomposed into water and carbon dioxide in the soil, does not require composting facilities, and is highly compatible with fibers, easily penetrates into the pores and adheres around the fibers. Together with its heat resistance of up to 100 ° C, it is an ideal material for coated paper, barrier packaging, coffee capsules, fiber and injection molding applications.
PP bioplastic
Nestlé Finland's non-announced launch of PP bioplastics next year has caused quite a stir, which is clearly the real reason for its recent cooperation with IKEA. Brasko is known for its sugar cane-based PE bioplastics, which took a long time and made a lot of effort to mass produce it, but it did not succeed. A spokesperson for Nestlé said its company has developed a shorter process cycle that will prove production capacity next year. The factory is most likely to be located in Europe, he said: "In the vicinity of a production base using diesel as a raw material."
“We can do it well,†he said. “We can now use steam crackers to crack renewable hydrocarbons.â€
Greenhouse gases are not nothing
2016 is also the year in which CO2 officially joined the list of sustainable ingredients. Ford Motor Company became the first automaker to produce and test new foam and plastic parts using CO2 as a raw material.
New York-based Novomer Inc. should use the CO2 emitted by the manufacturing plant to produce innovative foam. Through a conversion system, Novomer produces a polymer that can be formulated into different materials, including foam and plastics that are easily recyclable. Ford said that if the new foam is as expected, it will appear on Ford cars within five years, such as seats and under the hood, using less than 600 million pounds of oil a year.
In June of this year, Covestro's first commercial production plant for CO2 polymers in Dormagen was officially launched. The plant uses carbon from CO2 to make a new type of polyol that is a core component of polyurethane foam. At the beginning of this month, the company delivered the first batch of CO2-based products, marking the official start of production at the new plant.
When it comes to greenhouse gases, polylactic acid producer NatureWorks is also investigating the possibility of using its third-generation raw material methane to produce Ingeo polylactic acid. The company invested $1 million to establish a new laboratory in the US headquarters in Minnesota to commercialize the fermentation process that converts methane to lactic acid. This is an adventure, but it is not only strategic for NatueWorks' diversification of raw materials. Once successful, it will harvest a simple and low-cost Ingeo production platform to open the highly competitive polylactic acid market. In this year's NatureWorks “rooted innovation†event, its CEO MarcVerbruggen predicted that “if we succeed, no one will build another plant that uses sucrose as a raw material.â€
NatureWorks Chief Operating Officer Bill Suehr in the new lab
What makes Natureworks happy is that this year, another polylactic acid producer has also entered the market. Verbruggen said: "Customers also want more than one supplier in the market, and competition will make us grow." Dutch company Corbion released its polylactic acid series this year, including standard polylactic acid and innovative high heat resistant polylactic acid resin. Interestingly, Corbion also announced that it is looking for raw materials that are different from the first generation of food crops, saying it is studying second-generation solutions, such as inedible biomass.
Corbion also revealed that it is working with France's Total to build a polylactic acid polymerization plant with an annual capacity of 75,000 tons at the Corbion Thailand production site. The existing lactide production facility will also be set up in the new plant. Corbion will supply the required lactic acid for the production of polylactic acid and lactide.
Say goodbye to bioplastics
Unfortunately, in 2016, a well-known bioplastics company withdrew from the market. PHA manufacturer Metabolix announced in July that its biopolymer business and corporate organization cut nearly 45 jobs and will "sell its biopolymer business assets." "This is a very large restructuring, unfortunately, but for the company's better development, it must be done," said Metabolix president and CEO Joseph Shaulson.
What is the outlook?
Bioplastics global capacity forecast
According to data recently released by the European Bioplastics Association, the bioplastics market will grow. By 2021, the preset capacity will increase from 4.2 million tons in 2016 to nearly 6.1 million tons. Bioplastics is a growing new industry that plays a key role in the transition to a biobased circular economy. However, the organization said: "Despite the many advantages, the data shows that the overall growth rate of the global bioplastics industry has slowed down, on the one hand because of lower oil prices, and on the other hand, the government's support for the bio-economy is not enough."
