Europe's Demeto recycling project, which aims to chemically recycle polyethylene terephthalate (PET) using microwaves, will use technology developed by Switzerland's gr3n. Demeto is being funded as part of the EU's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme. The project has been designed for a large scale in order to demonstrate that it can be done on an industrial scale.
