This webinar will dive into Hitachi Energy’s collaboration with Elia Group on closing the loop for decommissioned transformers, reducing environmental impacts and enhancing supply chain resilience.
Recycling Europe’s flagship annual event, the European Recycling Conference, will bring Europe’s recycling industry back to the heart of EU policymaking at a defining moment for the sector.
This report shows that the EU has the capacity to recycle its end-of-life ships safely and responsibly. It argues that rather than a lack of capacity, the main reason for ships being sent to South Asian beaches for dismantling under poor environmental and labour conditions is loopholes that allow shipowners to avoid EU rules.
With thousands of European-owned ships expected to reach the end of their lives in the coming years, the EU has an opportunity to strengthen its recycling industry, create jobs, recover valuable steel and reduce pollution. The report calls for a ban on beaching, stronger rules to hold shipowners accountable, and investment in safe recycling facilities in Europe.
Bulgarian company Nord Holding has been collecting various waste streams for recycling since 1995. Since 2022, it has been developing its own recycling capacity for streams such as tyres and aluminium.
Recyberica Ambiental manages, processes and recycles waste electrical and electronic equipment. Specialising in dealing with air conditioning units, they recover gases, plastics and metals and direct them back into the production chain where possible.
Elemental Group recovers platinum group metals from spent automotive ceramic catalysts, non-ferrous metals from scrap metal, and copper and precious metals from electronic waste.
The Circular Aluminium Action Plan is the aluminium sector’s strategy for achieving aluminium’s full potential for a circular economy by 2030. The action plan aims to ensure that all end-of-life aluminium products are collected and recycled efficiently in Europe to maximise the aluminium recycling rates and to keep the material in active use. It builds on the aluminium industry’s Vision 2050 and provides policy recommendations for the sector.
The aluminium industry has the potential to be a key driver in achieving Europe’s ambitions for a climate-neutral and circular economy. Aluminium is by nature circular and fit for multiple recycling: it can be recycled over and over again without losing its original properties (lightness, conductivity, formability, durability, impermeability).
The Joint Initiative on Circular Economy (JICE) brings together the EU’s largest public promotional banks and institutions.
Against the backdrop of the expected EU Circular Economy Act and a shifting regulatory environment, JICE is launching a webinar series to deepen market understanding of financing needs, gaps and bottlenecks for the circular economy across selected sectors.
This webinar will focus on critical raw materials from e-waste.
The Rethinking Materials Summit will bring together brands, innovators, investors and policymakers to explore the next frontier of materials innovation.
It is an opportunity for targeted networking, curated deal flow, live pitches and fresh tech discovery across the value chain.
