Chemical recycling is big and set to get bigger - after all, it helps overcome the limitations of traditional plastics recycling (and we have so much plastic to recycle...).
However, there are still problems and this event will address the challenges and opportunities facing the development of these emerging technologies and their integration into the supply chain.
Hailia’s patent-pending technology is transforming the seafood industry by upcycling fish sidestreams into high-quality, versatile food products. This technology can produce items with over 90% fish sidestream content - while being very tasty and suitable for a wide range of dishes.
Bio4HUMAN is a Horizon Europe-funded initiative working to solve solid waste management challenges in humanitarian settings.

The GLOPACK project investigated food packaging with no environmental footprint and the ability to extend the shelf life of food products.
It focused on biodegradable and home compostable food packaging made from agro-food residues, bio-packaging and battery-free RIFD bio-sensors to track food freshness.
The Horizon Europe FISSAC project aimed to develop and demonstrate a new paradigm built on an innovative industrial symbiosis model. This model was intended to deliver a zero waste approach in the resource-intensive industries of the construction value chain.
The Green PLM® Conference 2024 will tackle Product Lifecycle Management.
It will explore IT solutions enabling manufacturers to establish an efficient data flow. This two-way flow will let them make their products' lifecycle as sustainable as possible - and then report on it, in accordance with EcoDesign and Circular Economy regulations.

The SYMBA project (Securing Local Supply Chains via the Development of New Methods to Assess the Circularity and Symbiosis of the Bio-based Industrial Ecosystem) will help deliver bio-based solutions with reduced environmental impacts on soil, water and air quality.
The project aims to achieve this by creating an innovative method of industrial symbiosis which can be replicated across the EU, geared to the local/regional bio-based industrial ecosystem. This method will be used to help design zero-waste value chains.
The Horizon Europe project Hubs4Circularity Community of Practice is organising a workshop to discuss and reflect on the various funding and financing approaches relevant to the industrial-urban symbiosis community.
