1 PLASTICS IN A CIRCULAR ECONOMY - KEY CONCEPTS PLASTICON CONTRIBUTION Abdulrahman Al-Fageeh March 14 th, 2018
2 CONTENT Intensities & the eco-efficiency of plastics Plastic waste perception of litter to be resolved as part of the circular economy Sustainability transforming our way of living as we speak Various examples of reuse, recycle and utilization Conclusion 2
3 THE ECO-EFFICIENCY OF PLASTICS Automotive Consumer Products Energy Pipes & Fittings Plastics save 5-9 times more CO2 Extends it s shelf life by up to 3 times 7 times more energy is saved Prevent water losses by 8 times & reduce installation costs by up to 60% Plastics have a relative low carbon footprint compared to traditional materials 3
4 A CHALLENGE WITH 9.6 BILLION PEOPLE BY We will need 35% more food 50% more energy 40% more water SOURCE:ACCORDING TO A UNITED NATIONS REPORT 4
5 PLASTIC WASTE PERCEPTION OF LITTER TO BE RESOLVED AS PART OF THE CIRCULAR ECONOMY Adequate waste management is required to reach an acceptable standard of living & Citizens take responsibility for their waste Illegal dumping in nature is a major cause of environmental deterioration Gulfnews.com Marine litter and Microplastics China s Great Green Wall Poor waste collection in coastal cities and poor control over seaside landfill causes massive plastic pollution of the oceans* 80 % of marine litter is from land-based sources istock@ewg3d To impulse the recycling culture in the local community and help reducing MSW impact on environment Waste, plastics should be properly recycled, incinerated. In China 100 Billion Trees Bloom: China s Great Green Wall * Ocean Conservancy study,
6 SUSTAINABILITY TRANSFORMING OUR WAY OF LIVING AS WE SPEAK SABIC is proud of being the first in the Kingdom to achieve carbon credits and register a groundbreaking energy-efficient process. We have once again demonstrated our commitment to sustainable development. Yousef Al-Benyan Chief Executive, SABIC 6
7 CIRCULAR ECONOMY THINKING Circularity as aspirational design criterion Focus on materials consumption and recycling At each value chain step circularity must a key business model criterion, take the whole chain into account No established method of determining a circularity score Raw Material Design Product Distribution Use Collection Recycle Renewable Recoverable materials Design for recycling Disassembly Renewable energy Minimize materials use Local production Supply chain design Durable products Reparable products Component Separation Collection infrastructure Reuse Disassembly Recycle Consensus on quantification criteria and methods still to be found 7
8 CIRCULAR ECONOMY AND THE CHEMICAL INDUSTRY A circular economy is one that is restorative and regenerative by design, and which aims to keep products, components and materials at their highest utility and value at all times Source: Ellen MacArthur foundation In which the value of products, materials and resources is maintained in the economy for as long as possible, waste generation is minimised. Source: Pierre Henry DG Environment, EU The chemical industry is challenged by customers and regulators: To reduce the use of fossil resources To reduce the burden that plastic waste puts on the environment Current business models must be adapted or even radically changed 8

11 ICE TM HOUSE AT THE WORLD ECONOMIC FORUM IN DAVOS The Circular Economy utilizes product design with materials that contribute to conserve energy and are recoverable, reusable and recyclable. CONSTRUCTION: Driving cutting-edge building designs 50% energy savings thanks to transparency and insulation 250% times impact resistance and ease to reuse: durability 50% weight savings: resource efficiency 100% recyclable ICE TM* house driving sustainable, cutting-edge building designs 11
12 CO 2 UTILIZATION PLANT AND PERFORMANCE World s largest CO 2 capturing plant at United, SABIC affiliate in Saudi Arabia designed to capture and purify up to 500,000 metric tons of CO million tons Total CO 2 utilization in ktons CO 2 utilization First operative year 1500 tons of CO 2 per day can be used from new capture and purification plant Continues to recover more CO2 as feedstock for valuable products such as urea, methanol and liquid CO2 for the food industry 12
13 SABIC S SOLUTION: CERTIFIED RENEWABLE PE AND PP MATERIALS BY USING OUR EXISTING PROCESSES TO PRODUCE IDENTICAL PRODUCTS AS IN OUR EXISTING PORFOLIO BY REPLACING PART OF THE FOSSIL BASED FEEDSTOCK USED IN OUR PROCESSES BY RENEWABLE FEEDSTOCK BY USING INDEPENDENT MASS BALANCE CERTIFICATION TO GUARANTEE THE PROCESSING OF RENEWABLE FEEDSTOCKS AND ALLOCATION TO SPECIFIC PRODUCTS 13
14 THE BEAUTY OF FEEDSTOCK RECYCLING SABIC IS THE FIRST IN INDUSTRY TO SCALE UP HIGH-QUALITY RECYCLING PROCESSES FOR CHEMICAL RECYCLING OF MIXED PLASTIC WASTE TO THE ORIGINAL POLYMER. FOSSIL BASED STEAM CRACKER POLYMER PLANT CONVE RTER FEEDSTOCK RECYCLING ENERGY RECOVERY MECHANICAL RECYCLING LANDFILL USE Contributes to sustainability targets Builds brand reputation Turns waste into valuable product Aligned with EU ambitions 14
