R&D+i
LifeEcomethylal Project
- Project description: Recovery of non recyclable plastic waste using catalytic hydro-gasification plasma (CHGP) technology to convert these plastics into a chemical called methylal, which can be used in various applications.
- Collaborating partners: AIMPLAS, BPP, AIRESA, MIPLAST

AUTOFENTON Project
- Project description: Development of an efficient system that uses hydric resources to manage and transport hazardous packaging. With this new project Acteco shall be able to use UV radiation to regenerate used Fe (II), as well as producing on-site electrochemical hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and Fe(II) as a catalyst, in addition to establishing a strategy for water usage during hazardous packaging washing and harvesting rainwater equivalent to a maximum of 50% of all water consumed for an efficient washing process using the Fenton reactive.
- Programme: R&D SME PROJECTS by the Valencian Institute of Business Competitiveness (IVACE, as per its Spanish acronym)
Life ExtruClean
- Project description: Removal of hazardous substances in polyethylene packaging using supercritical carbon dioxide (sc-CO2) in the recycling process.
