Extrusion International 4-2024

24 Extrusion International 4/2024 INDUSTRY NEWS Verma and Ganesh Karankal, who are both experienced and respected businessmen, we wish to promote the expansion of sustainable recy - cling solutions in the Indian market and contribute our expertise,” says Manual Lindner, CEO and owner of Lindner Recyclingtech. Lindner Recyclingtech is consid - ered a pioneer in the recycling in - dustry. The founding of Lindner Re- cyclingtech Bharat adds another site to the subsidiaries in Germany, the USA, Singapore and France. Lind- ner, with its mobile, semi-mobile and stationary shredders, also pro - vides turnkey solutions for the pro- cessing of refuse-derived fuels (RDF) and plastics recycling. “Lindner has been manufacturing RDF success - fully for many years. With Lindner Washtech we also have a wealth of experience in plastics recycling, which will continue to grow thanks to the cooperation with Erema, the branch leader in extrusion,” asserts Ganesh Karankal, sales director of plastics recycling. Chirag Verma, Co-owner of Lind- ner Bharat, is also enthusiastic about the partnership. “India is a densely populated country with huge volumes of waste. Accord- ing to estimates, the mountain of rubbish will rise to more than 400 million tonnes by 2050. There is a lot to do in the area of recycling. Together with Lindner, we want to support the efforts of the waste and recycling economy in India and are looking forward to this chal- lenge.” Lindner www.lindner.com Realignment  Since 2020, BDI-BioEnergy In- ternational GmbH (BDI) and Next Generation Elements GmbH (NGE) have partnered to develop Syn - Cycle technology, based on the T:Cracker, for the chemical recy- cling of plastics. They have worked together to establish an industrial demonstration plant for SynCycle technology in collaboration with KRUWE GmbH in Kühnsdorf/Carin - thia/Austria. The joint efforts have successful - ly combined individual expertise into a comprehensive process solu - tion. As part of their alliance, BDI, in collaboration with Kanzler Ver- fahrenstechnik GmbH (KVT), EOSS Industries Holding GmbH (EOSS), and the Rieckermann Group, will now take over the marketing and further development of SynCycle technology. The know-how de- veloped by NGE and the T:Cracker product for processing polyolefins into pyrolysis oil will be adopted by BDI. Moving forward, the reactor process technology will be further developed at the Kühnsdorf site, and the technology will be rolled out worldwide as part of customer projects. They have already acquired a first reference customer from Eu - rope who will industrially employ SynCycle technology starting in 2025. NGE, as part of the NEXT GENERATION GROUP, will now focus intensively on the experi - ences gained with preparation technologies concerning dry, wet, and melt preparation. The synergy of these preparation technologies is a significant success factor for the implementation of projects in mechanical and chemical recycling toward a sustainable circular econ- omy. The experience and knowl- edge regarding the end applica - tion and end product enable the NEXT GENERATION GROUP, with its leading companies Next Gen - eration Recycling GmbH (NGR) for melt preparation/extrusion and HydroDyn Recycling GmbH for wet preparation/washing technology, to technologically conceptualize, design, engineer, and implement comprehensive solutions, provid - ing customers with a qualified technology partner along the en - tire value chain from plastic waste to product. As part of the realignment, NGE has transferred its shares in Syn - Cycle Operations GmbH to BDI. The pyrolysis technology for biomass, "PyroDry" and "PyroPower," which are also owned by NGE, remain un- affected by these changes and will continue to be developed indepen - dently.
