Recycling feasibility and project consultancy
Understand whether your project can secure suitable feedstock, produce material buyers want and operate on viable economics.
Test the assumptions behind your investment
- Can the project secure suitable feedstock?
- Available volumes, material composition, contamination, supply reliability, collection logistics and delivered cost.
- Can the proposed process deliver?
- Technology suitability, throughput, recovery yield, utilities, staffing and operating requirements.
- Will the output meet buyer requirements?
- Target applications, buyer specifications, competing materials, pricing evidence and potential routes to sale.
- How sensitive are the project economics?
- Capital expenditure, operating costs, working capital and cash flow, tested against changes in prices, utilisation and yield.
From capacity to saleable output
- Rated input capacity
- tonnes per hour
- Scheduled operating hours
- hours in the assessment period
- Effective utilisation
- fraction of scheduled capacity actually used
- Saleable yield
- fraction of processed input meeting the intended output specification
- Saleable output
- tonnes in the assessment period
Utilisation allows for downtime and reduced throughput. Buyer demand, selling prices and costs are assessed separately.

The sectors below are the ones whose own pages list this service in their support mapping. Each link goes to that sector's page, which sets out the decisions and the surrounding support. It is a selected set rather than an exhaustive boundary — the service can apply more widely than the hubs currently describe.
If you are still shaping the scope, the project scoping guide walks through the questions that make a brief usable. No email required.
Recycling & Resource Recovery
Assess feedstock, markets, process and economics, and produce a feasibility report with an editable financial model.

Depending on the agreed scope:
- Feedstock and materials audit
- Market and buyer requirements assessment
- Process options and operating assumptions
- Feasibility report and editable financial model
- Business plan and staged implementation roadmap
We distinguish estimated material availability from supply a project can realistically secure, and equipment capacity from saleable output. These assumptions are made explicit in the assessment.
