Closing the Loop on Non-Recyclable Materials

Roughly a quarter of all collected waste in Europe is genuinely non-recyclable — mixed plastics, contaminated textiles, sewage sludge, hospital residues. For decades, the default answer has been landfill or mass incineration.

Advanced thermochemical gasification offers a third route: convert these streams into syngas, hydrogen, heat, and a stable solid that can return to the construction industry as a raw material.

One process, multiple outputs

Each LOOPER unit produces useful gas streams *and* a solid mineral residue. Together they close the loop — what entered as waste leaves as energy and building material.
