          Advanced recycling, also called chemical recycling, uses heat and chemical reactions to break down plastic waste into its molecular building blocks.

          It’s promising on paper, and the chemicals industry has heavily promoted advanced recycling, as has the Trump administration. Except, the industry is running into trouble.

          In the past weeks, two of just a handful of advanced recycling sites in the United States have suspended operations: the Freepoint Eco-Systems plant in Hebron, Ohio, and the Braven Environmental plant in Zebulon, N.C.

          Now, just seven advanced recycling plants remain in the United States, barely making a dent in the amount of plastic that’s discarded, according to Beyond Plastics, an environmental advocacy group.

          The industry’s troubles have bolstered critics who have called advanced recycling a false solution. They say it releases toxic chemicals into the atmosphere and cannot reliably and economically be ramped up.

          One type of advanced recycling called pyrolysis offers a way to transform plastic waste into oil, which can be used as industrial heating fuel, a substitute for diesel or as raw material for producing new plastics. That potentially reduces the need to use fossil fuels to make plastic.

          The Freepoint plant in Ohio stopped operations after being hit with violations for dozens of unreported equipment malfunctions and illegal emissions. It also failed to produce enough pyrolysis oil to meet Ohio’s definition of recycling. That meant it faced reclassification as a waste incinerator, which would have come with stricter regulations.

          Roger Ruan, a professor in renewable engineering and environment at the University of Minnesota, said that current pyrolysis plants, which tended to produce fuel for burning rather than new plastic, were just an “expensive way to burn fossil fuels.”

          But he said early failed efforts had given the technology a bad name. He said he still saw a way forward if larger companies with resources and expertise started to adopt the technology.

          Jennifer Dunn, a professor of chemical and biological engineering at Northwestern University, cautioned that environmental harms still are not well understood. Many analyses of pyrolysis technologies don’t account for emissions of pollutants beyond greenhouse gases and basic air pollutants, she said.
         </span>

        <p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px">
         <span>
          The best case scenario, Professor Dunn said, would be for advanced recycling plants to install the most stringent pollution control devices and continually monitor their emissions, something they’re currently not required to do. But that would make advanced recycling more expensive.

          More promising, she noted, was research into new materials that can reduce the use of plastics . Scientists have been trying to develop plastic substitutes from materials like seaweed and algae, for example.
