Resynergi, an in-modular advanced plastic recycling technology, announced it has raised $18 million in Series B extension funding led by Taranis, the investment and asset management company of Perenco Group. This funding round enables Resynergi to commission its first commercial-scale site, equipping the company to address the outsized demand for sustainable, circular plastic resin and advance its mission to accelerate the transition to a circular economy.
Taranis Investment is committed to Resynergi’s vision for a more circular, low-carbon future. And the funding will enable Resynergi to expand operations for its first commercial-scale site, positioning the company to play a key role in addressing the estimated 70% global growth in plastic waste by 2050.
Following the funding, Katherine Corrigan from Taranis Carbon Ventures will join the Resynergi Board of Directors. Existing investors Lummus Technology and T1ST also participated in this Series B extension round, further reinforcing their commitment to plastic circularity and accelerating industrial transitions for a more sustainable future. Ilya Aranovich, VP of Corporate Strategy at Lummus Technology, and Marianne Abib-Pech, Managing Partner at T1ST and former Global CFO of Shell Aviation, remain on the company’s board of directors.
Resynergi’s Continuous Microwave Assisted Pyrolysis (CMAP) technology, branded Resynergi Modules and supplied by partner Lummus Technology, provides a transformative approach to plastic recycling. And the modular design allows for rapid scaling, enabling material recovery facilities and businesses to efficiently process up to 50 tons of plastic waste per day. With a smaller footprint and fast conversion times, Resynergi Modules offer a cost-effective and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional recycling methods.
