TripleW Technology

Since 2016, TripleW has committed to addressing the environmental and financial challenges of waste management, through the development of superior circular solutions. Bioplastics, being both renewable and highly in-demand, are the perfect vehicle for creating value from food waste and closing the loop.

1

Food waste is the main feedstock for TripleW’s bioprocess which starts with separating and grinding the organics into a pumpable slurry.

2

The slurry is combined with TripleW’s microorganisms that ferment the mix and produce lactic acid in 24 hours.

3

A. The lactic acid is separated from the remaining waste with a combination of physical separations and a multi-step purification that yields Circulac.
B. The material that is separated from the lactic acid goes to renewable biogas production in a conventional anaerobic digester.
C. The final digested material can be used as fertilizer in agriculture. Nothing is wasted

4

Circulac can be used as the building block to produce the biopolymer PLA (poly lactic acid) a biobased alternative to fossil-fuel plastics.

5

Circulac is used as an ingredient for multiple consumer-based products including personal care, homecare and more.

6

To close the loop of material upcycling TripleW technology can convert both food waste, and PLA-based packaging waste back into Circulac.

Our Products

TripleW's CIRCULAC™: highly pure lactic acid and lactate salts produced by fermentation of food waste, made entirely from renewable carbon.

Implementing CIRCULAC™ yields a major reduction of carbon emissions from the manufacture of products in home care, personal care, food and beverage, and industrial applications, as well as from the production of PLA bioplastics. TripleW’s lactic acid will significantly contribute to climate change mitigation by displacing fossil-based materials with a circular alternative.
