Recycling Technology Innovation Act

This bill amends the Clean Air Act to exclude certain units that convert plastic or post-use polymers into products from the definition of solid waste incineration unit. Sec. 2, Definition of solid waste incineration unit: The bill adds a new exclusion for units that convert or transform plastic or post-use polymers through processes like pyrolysis, gasification, depolymerization, catalytic cracking, solvolysis, or chemolysis, if at least 50 percent by mass of the outputs are products, as determined by the Administrator by rule. It also allows owners or operators of similar units not meeting this exclusion to petition the Administrator for treatment as excluded, with a process requiring public availability of the petition, public comment, and a decision within 180 days. The term 'product' is defined as a usable substance or material with consumer, commercial, or industrial application that can be sold or used as an input in manufacturing, excluding electricity, heat, steam, soot, char, dust, or ash.
