Ep. 34 - WashAwayWaste? Does a home appliance hold the secret to the planet's plastic problem?

Intelligent Performance

In this episode, we unveil an inventive approach to tackling the alarming statistic that a staggering 91% of plastic is not recycled, and much of the plastic we diligently place in recycling bins find its way to landfills. At the heart of this innovative solution is Phillip Major, the CEO of Cyclion, whose brainchild has the potential to radically transform the way we handle plastic waste.

Cyclion has pioneered a method that employs a common household technology - a washing machine, coupled with a concoction of specialized liquids, to process plastic waste. This ingenious method not only vastly improves the capture of valuable metals intertwined within the waste but also repurposes the remaining materials into usable products. It's a stride towards a circular economy, where waste is not an end, but a new beginning.

As Cyclion is in the crucial phase of capital raising to fuel their mission further, Phillip expounds on the significance of this venture. The funds garnered will be instrumental in refining their technology, broadening their operational scope, and scaling the impact of their solution on a global stage.

Listeners are invited to explore Cyclion's ongoing capital raising campaign on Birchal, and learn how they can contribute to a venture that aims to redefine plastic waste management. This episode is not just a narrative of innovation and environmental responsibility but a call to action to each one of us, to partake in a movement that could significantly dent the plastic problem the planet grapples with. Dive in, as we unravel a story that rethinks waste and presents a pathway to a sustainable and plastic-waste-free world.
