Styrenyx®
Styrenyx breaks down waste polystyrene, a common hard plastic, into its original building block: styrene monomer. This includes flame-retardant-laden and other distressed feedstocks that are otherwise difficult to recycle. It uses controlled temperatures, with no catalyst required, and is the result of 8 generations of development, over 20 years of R&D, and 22 patents.

Feedstock to product
- INPUTPolystyrene feedstockDensified polystyrene waste is fed into the reactors.
- CONVERSIONDepolymerizationOur patented pyrolysis reactor depolymerizes the polystyrene into its original building blocks: styrene monomers.
- OUTPUTStyrene monomerThe end-product, a styrene monomer, enables all styrene monomer end-markets to create new, virgin-equivalent, high-quality polystyrene products, reducing the need for fossil-based production.
Critically reviewed by a third party
Agilyx commissioned Sphera Solutions to conduct a cradle-to-gate carbon footprint assessment. The study confirmed that Styrenyx significantly reduces carbon emissions compared to traditional, fossil-based styrene production.

TruStyrenyx®
TruStyrenyx is a full polymer-to-monomer advanced recycling solution for polystyrene. It combines Agilyx's Styrenyx pyrolysis process with purification technology. Together, these turn polystyrene waste, including material contaminated with flame retardants, into recycled styrene monomer of exceptional purity.

Full Circular Solution for Polystyrene Waste
Polystyrene waste has long been treated as a dead end. Styrenyx and TruStyrenyx technology turn it into a renewable source of virgin-quality material, keeping it in circulation instead of landfill. Through pyrolysis, waste is depolymerized into Agilyx Styrene Oil (ASO), then purified into styrene monomer at >99.8 wt% purity, ready as feedstock for polymer production.
