04 Jul 2024 --- Trinseo, a specialty material solutions provider, has opened its polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) depolymerization facility in Rho, Italy. The pilot facility houses next-generation recycling technology, which helps advance a circular infrastructure for acrylic solutions. Depolymerization is a chemical recycling process that returns acrylic solutions to the constituent monomer, methyl methacrylate (MMA). Complementary to other recycling technologies, depolymerization helps close the loop for acrylic recycling with several advantages over traditional processes, highlights Trinseo.
