The PROSPER, MoeBIOS and ReBioCycle projects are researching the technologies and the economics of bioplastics recycling. The issue is fundamental – if the use of bioplastics is to grow (as heralded by the draft EU Bioeconomy Strategy), apart from organic recycling, then sorting and mechanical/chemical recycling capacity must grow too, to ensure circularity.
In this webinar we explore these themes, looking at the first results from PROSPER, MoeBIOS and ReBioCycle after one year, the new policy framework, and the cost/benefits of bioplastics sorting and recycling.
