Alterra Energy operates a commercial-scale plastic circularity facility in Akron, Ohio, converting hard-to-recycle post-use plastics into reusable raw materials for new products. Commissioned in 2020, its 60-ton-per-day plant is described as the only full-scale, continuous facility of its kind, using a patented thermochemical process and licensing that technology globally. The company says it has recycled millions of pounds of discarded plastic while working to keep material out of landfills and reduce reliance on fossil fuels.
