UBQ's process takes your regular mix of undifferentiated waste stream of food, plastic, paper or whatever, which is "is reduced into its more basic natural components. At a particle level, these natural components reconstitute themselves and bind together into a new composite material – UBQ." It is all proprietary and patented, but I think I found the right one, US8202918B2:

On their website and in this video, the company describes how they are part of the movement from the take-make-waste linear economy to the circular economy, described by the Ellen MacArthur Foundation as one that "entails gradually decoupling economic activity from the consumption of finite resources and designing waste out of the system."

They claim that the resulting product is safe for people and the environment, and "does not present any health or safety concerns. Testing performed by leading independent laboratories, using the most stringent US and European hazardous waste rules, as well as Cradle-to-Cradle standards. It is also compliant under REACH." They note that "the material is competitively priced compared to conventional plastics, while providing a significant environmental added value."

For many years I have complained on Treehugger about recycling, where companies pat us on the head for separating our waste into bins so that maybe if we are lucky, some of the plastic might become a bench or plastic lumber. Then I complained about how the companies were going to save recycling by taking the plastic and going through elaborate chemical processes to turn it back into feedstock.

Now compare this to the $670 million project in Quebec that we recently covered, which turns waste and electrolyzed hydrogen and oxygen into ethanol and chemical feedstocks. I did not think it made much sense, but this UBQ concept seems so much more accessible, affordable, and achievable in a reasonable timeframe.

If this works as well as advertised and promised, it won't stop with plastic trays in Brazil; it is going to be a very big deal.

And then here comes a company, Certifed B yet, which means that it "balances purpose and profit" – they are legally required to consider the impact of their decisions on their workers, customers, suppliers, community, and the environment. It promises to take all our garbage (no more sorting!) and keep it out of the landfill, and instead turn it into useful thermoplastic resins without a lot of energy, water, or emissions, with a negative carbon footprint.

That plastic tray in the photo above doesn't look like much, but it could be the start of something big. UBQ Materials is a Certified B Corporation in Israel that, according to a press release, has "patented a technology which converts household waste into a climate positive, biobased, thermoplastic."

They are touting a big deal they have made with the world's largest McDonald's franchisee, Arcos Dorados in Brazil, to manufacture 7,200 new serving trays. In the process, they have already diverted 2600 pounds (1200 kilograms) of waste from landfills, and "every ton of UBQ produced prevents nearly 12 tons of carbon dioxide equivalent into the environment."

During an economic downturn, both individuals and governments may tighten their budgets, resulting in decreased healthcare spending. This could limit patients’ access to and affordability of HIV injections, potentially reducing demand for such treatments. However, the increasing prevalence of HIV infections sustains demand for therapeutic drugs, even during a recession. Consequently, there may be a moderately positive impact on the demand for HIV injections, driven by the rising need for treatment amidst economic challenges.

The growth of the HIV injection market is fueled by an increase in the number of individuals affected by HIV, greater awareness surrounding early diagnosis and treatment, and a rise in research and development initiatives. For example, as reported by the World Health Organization (WHO) in July 2023, HIV continues to be a significant global public health concern, with advanced HIV disease remaining a persistent issue in HIV response efforts. According to the same source, approximately 39.0 million people were living with HIV by the end of 2022, and around 1.3 million people acquired HIV in that same year.

As best I can tell, the waste is cooked at about 400 degrees until it breaks down into its basic components of lignin, cellulose, and sugars. Lignin is a biopolymer that is the stuff between cellulose reinforcing fibers in a tree, so when this is all mixed with the melted plastics and I believe some added thermoplastics, it becomes a strong composite material that UBQ can mold into not only trays for McDonald's, but also plastic pipes, wastebasket, pallets, and industrial products that do not have to be made from food-grade plastics. Almost any kind of waste can go into it, according to the patent, "there is no additional limitation on the type of waste, and no limitation and the source of waste. Appropriate types of waste include but are not limited to household refuse, industrial waste, medical waste, rubber marine sludge, and hazardous material."

According to the Life Cycle Assessment, there are significant environmental benefits compared to conventional thermoplastics like polypropylene, claiming a significant positive carbon footprint. It also reduces the amount of material going to landfill (where organic waste rots and gives off methane) and reduces the need for fossil fuels.

Here on Treehugger, I have been dismissive of claims that plastic waste could be recovered through fancy and expensive chemical recycling, writing in How the Plastics Industry Is Hijacking the Circular Economy that "this sham of a circular economy is just another way to continue the status quo, with some more expensive reprocessing." But the UBQ approach is different. It is not perfectly circular in that they are not producing a plastic as pure as the original; it is a composite that could be called downcycling instead of recycling.
