This conference will bring together international experts from industry, research and politics to discuss the latest developments in the use and utilisation of CO₂.
As well as sessions and networking opportunities, there will be a trade exhibition, poster session and the Best CO2 Utilisation 2026 innovation award.
Fibenol transforms forestry and wood industry residues into sustainable biomaterials used in the biomaterials and biofuels, packaging, construction, and food, feed and pharmaceuticals industries.
This conference took place on 10-11 December in Spain, bringing together over a hundred plastics recycling specialists who debated competitiveness and regulation in plastics recycling in Europe. See the highlights!
The Horizon Europe RECREATE (REcycling technologies for Circular REuse and remanufacturing of fiber-reinforced composite mATErials) project aims to develop a set of innovative technologies which will exploit the potential of end-of-life complex composite waste.
It is organising a webinar looking at practical and emerging approaches for recovering value from end-of-life composite parts.
The European Commission has launched a call for evidence on advanced materials, which will feed into the Advanced Materials Act. See what it's about and give your views!
The EU-funded RECLAIM project aimed to develop low-cost, portable, easy to install and highly productive 'portable robotic Material Recovery Facilities' (prMRF), which will enable full material recovery anywhere, even in the most remote areas.
As its first real-world test, the project deployed the world's first AI-powered portable recycling plant in the island of Kefalonia in Greece, bringing on-site waste sorting to European islands and remote destinations.
This two-day event of intense cross-border and cross-sectoral pitching, matchmaking and networking aims to link industry to innovative (biobased) technologies, and innovators to investors.
Decarbonising mobility will leverage efficiency, modal shift, vehicle electrification and a reduced production footprint of vehicles.
With a focus on dismantling, this study looks at steel decarbonisation. This is a priority since steel is the most widely used material in cars and trucks and the second-largest contributor to greenhouse gas emissions in vehicle manufacturing.
It recommends establishing a new commercial standard which accounts for improved shredded scrap quality, thereby increasing its market value and benefiting the entire value chain. This added value creation could also help limit the export of ELVs outside the EU, which poses multiple concerns, including safety issues and the loss of strategic materials critical for European industry resilience.
Waste management in remote areas, or where waste generation temporarily increases, makes it difficult to justify large-scale infrastructure development. To address this, the RECLAIM project has developed a low-cost, portable, AI-powered robotic material recovery plant, which will initially be deployed in the Greek Islands.
