Our Solution
We stand for a sustainable future through decentralized recovery of plastic waste.
Instead of incinerating, landfilling or laboriously sorting plastics, we enable direct conversion at the point where the waste is created.
With our modular container solution you bring pyrolysis directly to your site. The system converts plastic into energy and gas. Through standardized connections you integrate it straight into your existing infrastructure. This lowers your disposal costs, generates your own energy on site and measurably reduces your ecological footprint.
The wempyre container
Our container is easy to set up at your location and fully replaces the removal of your plastic waste.
Simply turn your current costs into electricity and resources.
The advantages of the wempyre container
Cost savings
By recovering plastic on site you save twice: you cut the cost of waste removal and use the recovered resources directly, for example to reduce your electricity costs.
Green energy
The container provides you with green energy directly from your own waste streams. Thanks to its plug & play setup, installation is simple: connect it and you are ready to go. This saves time and allows you to benefit from the advantages quickly.
Recovery of mixed plastics
Mixed plastics can be processed directly on site. That saves resources and actively strengthens the circular economy.
Reducing your emissions
Using the container reduces your Scope 3 emissions in the areas of waste and energy procurement.
Savings per container per year
Buy less electricity or hydrogen
From one tonne of plastic the container generates around 1,536 kWh of energy per day. You use it directly on site and no longer have to buy it in.
Lower waste costs
Your plastic waste stays on site and is recovered there. Collection, transport and disposal fees disappear.
Example calculation: 1 t of plastic per day over 230 operating days, energy valued at €0.15 / €0.20 / €0.25 per kWh, disposal costs of €40 / €70 / €100 per tonne. Actual savings depend on your local energy prices and waste volumes.
Your role as operator
You run the plant at your site. The technical and safety-critical responsibility stays with wempyre.
What wempyre handles
Technical safety and plant responsibility, annual maintenance, safety-critical intervention in case of a fault, support through permitting and commissioning, and technical support during operation.
What stays with you on site
Provide the location, power and connections, feed in the plastic waste, a short visual check per shift, and empty the ash container following a checklist. Trained staff on site is enough for the daily routine.
Key regulations for you
If your company has revenue above EUR 150 million, you are required to report your ESG impact.
Time to implementation is decisive to reduce ESG impact and avoid penalties.
Cutting waste volumes through on-site processing is the simplest solution for you.
Costs and operation on site
How much does my company save with the wempyre container?
Depending on energy prices and disposal costs, one container saves between €62,000 and €111,000 per year, around €87,000 in a typical case. You save twice: collection and disposal of your plastic waste disappear, and you buy less electricity or hydrogen. The example calculation above shows both effects in detail.
How affordable is the energy from the container?
On a cost basis, energy from the container comes to only around 3.4 to 4.2 cents per kWh. That is well below typical industrial electricity prices. Your feedstock is waste you currently pay to get rid of.
What do I get from my plastic waste?
You choose the output per container: hydrogen, syngas or energy. That way the output fits your operations exactly, whether for process heat, electricity or as a feedstock.
Can I buy or rent the container?
Both. Either way, remote support, maintenance and on-site service are included. The waste analysis and the setup of the plant at your site are part of the package too.
How much effort does day-to-day operation take?
Very little. Your team feeds in the plastic waste, carries out a short visual check per shift and empties the ash container following a checklist. wempyre takes care of maintenance, technical safety and any intervention in case of a fault.
What does my site need?
Space for the container, a power connection and the connections for your chosen output. Standardised interfaces make integration plug & play. We assess your site together with you.
Do I need a complex permit?
Usually not. With a throughput below one tonne per day, the container currently only needs to be notified under the German Federal Immission Control Act (BImSchG) and does not require a full permit. We support you with the notification and commissioning.
