A number of cracking/depolymerisation processes are currently operating commercially. These include the Texaco gasification process and the BP Chemicals polymer cracking process. Both have been operating since the mid 1990s. 

For over 40 years Texaco has been commercially involved in gasification. For regular feedstock, the Texaco gasification technology has proven its reliability and flexibility in over 100 plants throughout the world. 

Texaco gasification is based on a combination of two process steps, a liquefaction step and an entrained bed gasifier. In the liquefaction step the plastic waste is cracked under relatively mild thermal conditions. This depolymerisation results in a synthetic heavy oil and a gas fraction, which in part is condensable. The noncondensable fraction is used as a fuel in the process. The process is very comparable to the cracking of vacuum residues that originate from oil recycling processes. 

The Texaco gasification process, currently owned by GE, is also of the EF type. A main difference with the aforementioned technologies is that the fuel is fed as a water slurry, whereas Koppers-Totzek- and Shell-based coal gasifiers use some steam.
