#Southeast #Asia’s feedstocks can supply approximately 12% of global SAF demand to meet the commercial aviation industry’s net-zero goal by 2050, according to a report developed by The Roundtable on Sustainable Biomaterials (RSB) and supported by Boeing. https://lnkd.in/eArsg2Rq #biofuels #feedstock #production #technology #netzero #saf #sustainableaviation #sustainableaviationfuel #sustainability #sustainablebusiness #sustainabledevelopment #sustainableenergy #aviation #aviationdaily #aviationnews #decarbonisation

[#CIRCULARITY] Composites are sustainable materials and essential for realising the European Green Deal’s net-zero targets. Using the latest information and examples, EuCIA can also now demonstrate that #composites are truly #circular #materials. 🔷 Over the coming months we will share our knowledge on composites circularity through a series of articles, accompanied by in-depth publications in our new Knowledge Hub. 🔷 We will also outline our vision for advancing circular solutions, which aims to facilitate the building of a robust, Europe-wide supply chain for the sustainable management of end-of-life composite materials and parts. 🔷 To achieve this objective, cross-sector cooperation is crucial, and we will discuss the need for establishing a stakeholder #alliance.

♻️♻️♻️ Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) has been front and centre at this year’s World Circular Economy Forum #WCEF2024 in Brussels ❗️It was great discussing the role of EPR in the transition to #CircularEconomy and sharing our experiences and expertise in this space ❓So, what impact does EPR have, you ask? This OECD report analyses all things EPR in more detail 👇 💡 The long-standing experience with EPR (in some product groups 30-50 years) shows that, it has successfully contributed to: 🟢 Improvements in transparency regarding material and financial flows 🟢 Shift of end-of-life (EoL) management costs of products from local governments to producers and consumers, whilst ensuring dedicated, ongoing and sufficient funding 🟢 Increases in the volume of separate collection of waste, where this is beneficial 🟢 Increases in material recovery (e.g. recycling) rates 💡 Additionally, EPR has the potential to provide producers with incentives for the design of more easily recyclable or re-useable products. 💡 However, to create effective product design incentives there is a need for careful modulation of EPR fees (based on product characteristics), something that has emerged only relatively recently in some European, Latin American and North American EPR systems. 💡 EPR policy development has thus far been an iterative process, and governments continue to trial innovative policies that are expanding the reach of the EPR approach.

The current regulations emphasize mechanical recycling, but manufacturers must take further action. Early education on #segregation and #recycling is crucial, and municipalities, as #waste #management hubs, need funding for advanced #technology. - Mr Janardhanan Ramanujalu, Chairman, CII Conference on Sustainability Plastics; and Vice President, South Asia, SABIC at #CIIConferenceonSustainablePlastics.

We are in the process to set our scope 3 targets in line with SBTi and will define our emission reduction targets for outgoing transports this year. Transports is a larger part of our scope 3 emissions, but when looking at the totality our main emissions are in the production and transports account for a very small part compared to that. We have been working with different methodologies for calculation our CO2 emissions, and most recently we are building a way to calculate emissions and track them in a more continuously manner. This to be able to work towards making decisions also based on carbon emissions and in the long-term also to include it in operations and decision making at that level. As of now the management of sustainability data is rather manual and require manual work for calculations, but here we see that digitalization and tools can support this. This is also evident for optimization efforts such as route optimization and co-loading/consolidation. “We are building a way to calculate emissions to be able to work towards making decisions also based on carbon emissions.”  - Johan Dahlberg, Director Supply Chain Europe SSAB Find out more in the playbook: https://lnkd.in/dWjybUEM

Italian Green Chemistry Leads the Energy Transition   Though often overlooked, Italy boasts a rich history in chemistry, exemplified by Nobel laureate Giulio Natta's invention of a widely used plastic material. Italian companies like MAIRE, leverage this expertise to create sustainable solutions for energy transition. · Maire develops technologies and build plants to produce clean alternatives like biofuels, recycled polymers, and hydrogen, reducing reliance on fossil fuels · The experience allows to scale up these novel solutions, making them readily available for wider adoption · MAIRE prioritizes sustainability, aiming for carbon neutrality across its operations and supply chain by 2050 Full article: https://lnkd.in/e9a5Bjnd #italy #economy #energy #energytransition #chemistry
