Novel Bioplastics Applications: Design Breakthroughs & Recycling Pathways
Novel Bioplastics Applications: Design Breakthroughs & Recycling Pathways
European Bioplastics organised a Workshop entitled Novel Bioplastics Applications: Design Breakthroughs & Recycling Pathways on 10 October at the K fair. The workshop brought together bioplastics projects and industry players. Applications and recycling solutions were presented by ReBioCycle, MoeBIOS, PROSPER, TERRIFIC, REPurpose, and BioSupPack. You can take a look at their materials and presentations below:
14:30–14:40 | Welcome and Introduction
14:40–15:15| Project Pitches: Innovations in Bioplastics
Focus: Goals, expected innovations, mock-ups/demonstrators, and opportunities for collaboration.
Innovative biobased and biodegradable products
- BioSupPack demonstrators: Víctor Sevilla (AIMPLAS) and Lorena Rodríguez (GPI)
- TERRIFIC prototypes: Alberto Castellanza (NOVAMONT)
- REPurpose mockups: Hanaa Dahy (Aalborg University)
How can we recycle them?
- Carmen Sánchez (ITENE)/MoeBIOS
- Kevin O’Connor (BiOrbic, University College Dublin)/ReBioCycle
- Wouter Post (Wageningen University & Research)/PROSPER
- Perspective of ALIA recycler: Plastic Packaging Recovery from the Prato Textile District, with Francesco Baldi (ALIA)/MoeBIOS
15:15–16:30| Speed Networking: Connecting Research and Industry (Coffee will be served during this timeslot.)
Format: The participants will move to the seven high table to talk to the speaker assigned to each table. It is a matchmaking opportunity!
