Create sustainable circular chemistry from waste with Siemens. Our innovative products and services deliver efficient processes, higher plant availability and flexibility to help you meet the demands of chemical recycling while also staying competitive.
Due to the rising consumption of plastics, tyres, batteries and other materials, as well as strict government regulations, there are ample growth opportunities in recycling. Let us leverage the potential to make a positive impact and establish a circular economy while diverting waste away from landfills and nature.
Recycling not only makes the old new again, but it also saves energy, which means fewer fossil fuels burned and a reduced CO2 footprint. Siemens technology contributes to many projects across the value chain in every recycling category.
Running a recycling plant goes beyond recycling end-of-life materials. It requires a plant-wide communications network that meets the highest security standards. Boost safety, uptime and efficiency with a fully digitalised and holistic view of your plant.

Digitalise your material handling with our innovative solutions for identification, documentation and billing to increase efficiency, and ensure end-to-end real-time information on all processes in your plant.
Leverage cutting-edge technology for the pre-processing of end-of-life feedstock:
Chemical conversion turns plastic waste into valuable raw materials. Our technology makes the operation of reactors more efficient while monitoring and documenting both emissions and material feeding, or modelling processes in a digital twin — enhancing overall safety and process uptime.
It takes post-treatment steps including distillation, hydrogenation, purification, drying or pelletising to turn the recycling output into valuable raw materials. Digitalising all processes — and connecting the workflow to billing systems — provides a holistic view of your recycling plant.
Siemens and Pyrum drive circular economy innovation and digitalisation and have a shared vision for change
Through its partnership with Siemens, Pyrum has optimised its thermolysis process to recover steel, textile fiberes and carbon black from used tyres while cutting COâ‚‚ emissions. Siemens Digital Twin and SIMATIC PCS neo solutions provide Pyrum with intuitive control, remote access and scalable, sustainable growth.
We are helping chemical plants in their efforts to drive circular chemistry. From reducing pollution to reusing waste, Miguel Angel Fernandez, Siemens AG, explains our innovative and environmentally-friendly applications.
Siemens offers a wide spectrum of solutions for qualitative and quantitative measurements of exhaust gas. Sonja Umbach, Siemens AG, shows how we help you to comply with emissions regulations to make a real impact on your business.
