Byproduct Valorization
The extraction of value or valorization of waste may be achieved by focusing on specific waste streams and then identifying the value chain and process related to recovery of that particular material.
By~Product Synergy provides a method for waste generators, processors and technology solution providers to directly collaborate with those who seek a source of circular raw materials.

By~Product Synergy was established to prevent the duplication of individual efforts in the development of markets of circular resource conservation and recovery. Please free to use this resource as a tool in your Circular Market Development Efforts.

Understand established traditional Scrap Commodity Markets is an important factor required in recognizing potential wastestream values and access to historic and current Secondary Commodity Prices is an esential tool.

By~Product Synergy supports the concepts of Elemental Molecular Regeneration of resources and multiple approaches of recovery including thermal decomposition through the advancement of Bio-Refining.

Emission Credits & Offsets
A growing awareness of efforts to become carbon neutral will see the emerging of various Emission Credits schemes around the world, new programs to adopt Carbon Offset Credits or Recycling Offset Credits may be established. An Emission Credit is a credit earned by a company when it reduces air emissions beyond what is required by permits and rules. It is an asset that can be used by its owner or sold to companies that need emission offsets.
Emission reduction credit offsets, or trades, occur when companies which pollute too much, purchase from others emission reduction credits to more than make up for their pollution.

Byproducts & Sidestreams
Almost all industrial processes involve Byproducts & Sidestreams – raw materials, wastewater, excess energy and chemicals – that go to waste after the manufacturing process. Today, these side streams can be harnessed for reuse or even processed further as new commodities with business value. There is a growing interest towards the recovery of these byproducts and side streams.
