We are extremely proud to announce that we are entering the next development phase of NTCP. Based on our knowledge position and the urgency in the market, the Dutch government is investing 12 million Euros from the National Growth Fund programme Circular Plastics NL (CPNL) for expansion of NTCP's research facilities and capabilities. Our expansions involve new equipment for our current sorting and washing setups, like additional sorting technologies including AI and extra sorting loops. For the washing we foresee major improvements to be achieved in the search for the right cleaning methods in which energy consumption, the use of cleaning agents and the formation of microplastics must be minimized. Furthermore, we will install advanced equipment and new experimental test-beds that will be used to investigate and develop optimal characterization and treatment processes to support technology and process developments of the future.
