Turning Unsegregated Waste into Industrial-Grade Thermoplastic Pellets

Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) is a global crisis — and the key obstacle lies in unsegregated, untreated waste piling up in landfills. At CIECO, we’ve developed a revolutionary zero-waste, no-segregation technology that transforms mixed MSW into bio-based thermoplastic pellets, with zero residual waste, no water usage, and no toxic emissions.

Here’s a step-by-step look at how our patented waste conversion process works.

🔁 Step-by-Step Waste Conversion Process

1. Raw Waste Collection & Initial Screening

We collect unsegregated waste — including organic matter, plastic, paper, rubber, glass, and even legacy waste — without the need for source segregation.

Reserve pits are used to safely store and mix the waste before processing.

---

2. Mechanical Pre-Treatment

The waste undergoes a series of mechanical steps to remove contaminants and prepare it for conversion.

Magnetic separation removes ferrous metals

Gravity separation isolates heavy inert materials

Scrubbing, shredding, compacting prepares waste for homogenization

---

3. Advanced Chemical Treatment

We apply a proprietary chemical binding process using water- and oil-based compounds that:

Stabilize mixed materials into a cohesive pulp

Neutralize harmful pathogens and gases

Ensure a safe, moldable output without creating hazardous byproducts

---

4. Thermal Processing without Combustion

The chemically treated pulp is subjected to low-temperature thermal blending (60–100°C), which:

Melts embedded plastics and organic binders

Dries and compacts the mixture

Avoids combustion, eliminating emissions of dioxins or furans

---

5. UV Drying & Granulation

The processed material is:

UV-dried in a sealed chamber to remove moisture

Compressed and pelletized into uniform granules

Enhanced with stabilizers to create strong, reusable thermoplastic pellets

---

6. Air Emission Control

Any gases released during the process are:

Passed through a graphene filter and scrubber system

Cooled and neutralized, ensuring only clean air is released into the environment
