Join LIFE PlasPLUS first dissemination workshop!


Our LIFE PlasPLUS first dedicated event scheduled for February 1st, 2022 is coming soon!

On February 1st, 2022, LIFE PlasPLUS project will organize the very first dissemination workshop. More than 10 speakers from leading European organisations will present the project results and latest technological innovations used in LIFE PLas PLUS in the filed of plastics and recycling.

About the event

Nowadays we can recycle so many materials, but yet some of them, such as heterogenous plastic, present a much tougher challenge. The European Union’s action plan for circular economy and the strategy for plastics in a circular economy aims to eliminate waste and maximise value, while protecting the environment.

LIFE PlasPLUS is a project funded under the European Union’s LIFE programme for Environment and Resource Efficiency. The project revisits the concept of recycling with its holistic approach to simultaneously close the loop for two traditionally siloed material value chains, plastics and minerals, by producing high purity recycled thermoplastics and antimony. These two materials in high demand, notably for the emerging electric mobility sector requiring the increased use of lightweight materials and flame retardants to, respectively, lower energy consumption and increase fire safety.

Agenda

The workshop will be held online on February 1st, 2022 from 09h00 until 16h15 CET. More than 10 speakers from top European business, technological and research organisations, will take part in the event. The event program is split in three main sessions covering plastics, stakeholders and future technologies:

  • LIFE PlasPLUS and plastic ecosystem
  • PLASTIC ecosystem stakeholders
  • LIFE PLasPLUS looking forward
