Blue Earth Solutions – The StyroSolve Process

Every chemistry teacher has said that Styrofoam™ would be around longer than the Statue of Liberty… Not any longer.

Blue Earth has the Solution, the StyroSolve© process!

We grind up expanded polystyrene ((EPS) or better known as Styrofoam (a registered trademark of DOW Chemical), in the form of packaging peanuts, insulation or building materials) and are mixed with our patented solvent called StyroSolve© to remove the compressed gasses.

The StyroSolve© turns the EPS into a gel, called Polygel©, when they are mixed together in the grinder/reducer.

The reaction to the StyroSolve© reduces the EPS by as much as 98%

By reducing the EPS to such a tiny amount reduces the number of trucks necessary to haul away the EPS, reducing the carbon footprint of transporting the EPS by 8 times.

The Polygel© is put into an extruder where two things happen:

* The StyroSolve© is evaporated off and captured to be reused

* The clean polystyrene is pelletized and sold to a plastics manufacturer as raw material
