塑膠化學回收市場機會、成長促進因素、產業趨勢分析及預測（2025-2034年）

2024 年全球塑膠化學回收市場價值為 2.485 億美元，預計到 2034 年將以 21.2% 的複合年成長率成長至 16 億美元。

隨著先進回收技術的蓬勃發展，該產業正經歷重大變革，使得混合和受污染塑膠能夠轉化為高價值的單體、聚合物和燃料。這項轉型不僅支持了全球循環經濟運動，也減少了對垃圾掩埋的依賴。石油化工原料和聚合物製造等應用佔據了市場主導地位，而隨著垃圾發電計畫的推進，燃料生產預計將會成長。此外，隨著純化和溶解方法的不斷改進，回收化學原料的特殊用途也在不斷增加，尤其是在高性能聚合物生產和積層製造領域。歐洲仍然是領先的地區，這得益於其強大的監管框架、生產者延伸責任制以及多個行業對再生材料的廣泛應用。解聚、熱解和溶劑分解等先進製程的快速普及徹底改變了複雜和受污染塑膠廢棄物的回收方式。對研發、試點到商業化規模化以及公私合作的持續投入正在加速這一市場的擴張。各國政府和全球石化巨頭也正在合作，將化學品回收直接納入現有的生產和供應鏈生態系統中。

2024年，熱解製程創造了1.367億美元的產值。它能夠將聚烯烴和混合塑膠廢料轉化為有價值的石化原料和燃料，使其成為首選的回收技術。

到2024年，聚合物產量將佔全球總產量的30%，這得益於包裝和紡織業閉迴路回收計畫的推動。利用解聚和溶劑分解技術，製造商可以回收優質單體，用於生產新型高​​品質聚合物，從而促進生產的永續性。

2024年，美國塑膠化學回收市場規模預計將達到6,210萬美元，這主要得益於政府的大力支持、日益增強的環保意識以及完善的回收基礎設施。該地區正在快速建造先進的回收設施，熱解和解聚系統的應用也日益普及。包裝、汽車和電子等關鍵產業正積極利用再生材料，以實現永續發展目標並減少對環境的影響。

The Global Plastic Chemical Recycling Market was valued at USD 248.5 million in 2024 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 21.2% to reach USD 1.6 billion by 2034.

The industry is undergoing a major transformation as advanced recycling technologies gain momentum, enabling the conversion of mixed and contaminated plastics into high-value monomers, polymers, and fuels. This transition supports the global circular economy movement and reduces dependence on landfilling. Applications such as petrochemical feedstock and polymer manufacturing dominate the market, while fuel production is anticipated to rise as waste-to-energy initiatives gain traction. Additionally, specialized uses of recycled chemical feedstock are increasing, particularly in high-performance polymer production and additive manufacturing, as purification and dissolution methods become more refined. Europe remains the leading region, driven by strong regulatory frameworks, extended producer responsibility mandates, and the widespread integration of recycled content in multiple industries. The rapid adoption of advanced processes such as depolymerization, pyrolysis, and solvolysis has revolutionized the recycling of complex and contaminated plastic waste streams. Growing investments in research, pilot-to-commercial scaling, and public-private partnerships are accelerating this market's expansion. Governments and global petrochemical giants are also collaborating to integrate chemical recycling directly into existing production and supply chain ecosystems.

In 2024, the pyrolysis segment generated USD 136.7 million. Its ability to transform polyolefins and mixed plastic waste into valuable petrochemical feedstocks and fuels makes it the preferred recycling technology.

The polymer production accounted for a 30% share in 2024, supported by the packaging and textile industries' closed-loop recycling initiatives. The use of depolymerization and solvolysis techniques allows manufacturers to recover premium-grade monomers used to create new, high-quality polymers, driving sustainability in production.

U.S. Plastic Chemical Recycling Market was valued at USD 62.1 million in 2024, propelled by strong government support, heightened awareness of environmental responsibility, and well-established recycling infrastructure. The region is witnessing the rapid construction of advanced recycling facilities, with the growing adoption of pyrolysis and depolymerization systems.
