RIYADH: In a step that could open up new possibilities for plastic recycling, Saudi Aramco TotalEnergies Refining and Petrochemical Co. has introduced a pioneering process that enables chemical recycling of plastic waste-derived oil as a feedstock to the refinery. 

A part of the Circular Economy initiative, which aligns with the Kingdom’s 2030 vision, the development is set to unlock new possibilities for recycling of low-quality mixed plastic including single-use plastics, according to a statement.
