ENOC, Quantafuel, Dubal Holding to study possibility of Plastic to Liquid plants

ENOC Group, Quantafuel and Dubal Holding announced their plans to study the potential of establishing and operating plastic to liquid production plants which turns plastic waste into “valuable products," a step to a circular economy, the companies said in a statement. 

“Driving innovation and implementing sustainable operations is at the heart of what we do, and we look forward to exploring opportunities which will help build a sustainable, circular economy,” said Saif Humaid Al Falasi, Group CEO of ENOC. 

The plastic to liquid project will be a significant step towards a circular economy by converting non-recyclable plastics into valuable products, the companies said. 

“Together, we can really make a difference and tackle the plastic waste in the region while at the same time creating valuable resources. We are also happy that our collaborating E&C Contractor SAIPEM has agreed to work with us on this exciting journey,” said Quantafuel’s Chief Commercial Officer Chris Lach. 

The initiative aims to promote dynamic economic growth alongside positive environmental impact, the companies said.  

Dubai has previously proposed a Waste-to-Energy Project, which is expected to convert 1,900,000 tonnes of waste per year. The project is expected to be commissioned by 2024.
