Protonera is a pioneering Cambridge spin-out dedicated to redefining recycling by transforming mixed plastic waste into high-value platform chemicals. The company's advanced catalytic technology converts previously unrecyclable plastic streams, including blended textiles and soiled packaging, into clean hydrogen, depolymerized monomers, and organic acids. These outputs are designed to integrate seamlessly into existing chemical value chains, offering a sustainable alternative to traditional disposal methods.

Their innovative approach creates new revenue streams for recyclers, manufacturers, and cities while significantly reducing emissions. Protonera's modular reactor systems operate under mild conditions, allowing for flexible deployment and easy integration with current industrial sites. This technology is tolerant to contaminants, ensuring a greater share of real-world plastic waste can be diverted from landfills and incineration, promoting a circular economy where waste is viewed as a valuable resource for decarbonization efforts.
