The Emerging Realities Of the Circular Value Chain

All is not equal here!

Technology Development & Disruption

 

Value?

• A value picture is emerging – initial LOI’s [low pricing] moving into offtake commitments

• Formulas under discussion balancing risk and exposures – Naphtha + premium doesn’t mean anything to a circular feed producer.

• Chemical producers need to materialize a market premium to downstream buyers – food packaging is key.

• The circular premium is being carefully guarded, but it will need to distributed to drive upstream supply.

• Quality / Yield will emerge as an important price driver – utility of the product ‘in use’

• Upgrading / No upgrading – prices will reflect the additional processing costs for a cracker operator & ‘straight in’ product should reflect a premium.

• Market is tight, tight, tight – will commoditize over the next decade
