Plastic Chemical Recycling Data Tables
The Plastic Chemical Recycling data tables library brings together 27 structured reference tables for the Plastic (Chem) business — feedstock properties, equipment specs, product yields, cost breakdowns, and regulatory checklists. Chemical plastic recycling — depolymerization, solvolysis, virgin-grade output, and CPCB compliance terms. Use each table to size a plant, brief vendors, or sense-check the numbers on an opportunity you're evaluating. Open any table for the full data with how-to-read notes, key insights, and the methodology behind the figures.

Feedstock Cost vs. Yield by Type
A comparison of four PET-type feedstocks for depolymerisation — clear bottles, coloured PET, polyester textiles, and multi-layer packaging — showing estimated yield percentage, cost profile, and the reason for yield loss in each case.
Feedstock Quality Parameters & Business Impact
Six feedstock quality parameters that determine depolymerisation plant profitability — polymer purity, moisture content, PVC contamination, bulk density, ash/dirt content, and organic residue — with ideal ranges and business consequences.

Six team roles for the commissioning (pilot runs and first start) phase of a depolymerisation plant — covering start-up management, automation fine-tuning, process troubleshooting, panel operation, monomer quality testing, and equipment vendor support.
Plant Construction (EPC) - Team Roles
Six team roles and headcounts for the EPC (plant construction) phase of a depolymerisation plant — from the EPC project manager coordinating budget and timeline to the certified welders and QA/QC inspectors ensuring construction quality.
Plant Scale vs. Land Area Requirements
Land area requirements for three scales of depolymerisation (chemical plastic recycling) plant — from a small modular pilot at 1.0–1.5 acres to a large industrial hub at 10–20+ acres — with the key characteristic of each scale tier.
