Ed VanDyne on turning plastic to fuel gold

Ed van Dyne, Founder & CEO of Plastic 2 Green, a serial entrepreneur, innovator, and engineer wants to solve the world’s plastic problem. His team is pioneering novel technology that converts discarded plastic into ammonia—one of the most efficient ways to use hydrogen energy.

Ed shares his vision of a zero carbon, zero smokestack process that breaks down mixed plastic waste and presents a sustainable alternative to traditional ammonia production, which heavily relies on fossil fuels.

Partnerships with governmental bodies, like the Department of Energy, USA, have enabled an ambitious plan of establishing three production plants in the next five years.

Ed, Rajeev and Teymoor explore the challenges and strengths of his business model: sourcing plastic waste, the impact of low-cost plastic production on our planet, and the importance of collaboration with organizations in the plastic supply chain. While market readiness for these emerging sustainable fuel alternatives is growing, competition from fossil fuel remains fierce – the world needs sustainability innovators more than ever.

Join us for an enlightening conversation about the future of renewable energy, the potential of green ammonia, and how the unique innovation of Plastic 2 Green will play a vital role in tackling the plastic crisis.
