Circularity and Resource Efficiency – Program Details
What?
Within this program, we work on all side and waste streams that occur in the broad domain of the chemical industry, including for example used lubricants, paints or plant protection products and water. In addition to this broad scope, the circularity of plastics and the development of technologies for the recycling of plastic waste are also focussed on.
Why?
- increasing the value of side and waste streams
- creating new value chains from side and waste streams
- avoiding pollution
Goals
Every project within this program has the ambition to deliver an innovation in one or more phases of existing or new circular value chains, while safeguarding the valorisation potential of the whole value chain.
