Nordic Bioproducts Group Ltd’s Post

Europe is facing a major textile waste challenge, but PESCO-UP partner Nordic Bioproducts Group Ltd realised they could use their patented Aaltocell™ technology to address the recycling challenge posed by polycotton textile waste. This innovative approach separates and reuses polycotton waste, converting it into valuable raw materials for new textiles. The solution is cost-effective and scalable, with promising lab results and plans to expand 🚀 With support from 18 international partners, PESCO-UP is setting a new standard for sustainable textile recycling ♻️ Learn more about this development ⬇ https://lnkd.in/e_DdKhRY

Far too many textiles end up in landfills or incineration. Let’s change that together! ♻👚 We’re thrilled to announce our partnership with CARBIOS, pioneers in biological technologies. By combining CARBIOS' groundbreaking enzymatic depolymerization technology with our advanced sorting automation, we're bridging the gap between textile waste collection and high-quality recycled polyester (r-PET) production. Why it matters: 🌍 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐲𝐜𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠: Aiming to increase textile-to-textile recycling from just 1%. 🌍 𝐂𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐩: Transforming textile waste into valuable r-PET fibers. 🌍 𝐃𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐜𝐢𝐫𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲: Avoiding landfill and incineration through innovative recycling.

CARBIOS and FCC Environment have signed a Letter of Intent, which outlines their plan to study the establishment of a new recycling plant in the UK using the advanced PET bio-recycling technology of CARBIOS. The enzymatic depolymerization technology can handle difficult-to-recycle PET waste (colored plastic and polyester textiles) and convert it into virgin-like products. It is an efficient method, consumes less energy, and is environmentally friendly compared to traditional methods, allowing FCC to improve recycling processes and enable a circular economy. This partnership with FCC will help CARBIOS gain direct access to PET waste, improving the effectiveness of its recycling technology. CARBIOS aims to lead in PET recycling by 2035 as the new UK plant would complement their existing plant in France and help manage waste more efficiently. https://lnkd.in/eyEq2kv2 #biorecycling #wastemanagement #enzymatictechnology #petwaste

Enhancing #recycling rates has been a priority for the fibre-based industry for years now. In this pursuit, innovation has proven to be a trusty sidekick. At the 4evergreen alliance, members have been working in an #innovation workstream to leverage a range of new technologies to raise #fibrebased packaging’s overall recycling rate. The group has focused on three main projects: ➡️Sortability of Fibre-barrier Packaging: it’s key that materials are sorted with a high degree of accuracy and purity to enable their recycling in a technically, ecologically, and economically viable manner. ➡️ Fibre preparation in the recycling process and the development of effective cleaning methods for recovered fibres. ➡️ Barrier coatings recycling: barrier coatings are integral in preserving the freshness and integrity of food products, and recycling these materials is possible in most cases, but they also present certain unique challenges when it comes to recycling.

Check our new public deliverable in EU project #CIMPA on Physical recycling of multilayer plastic films! In the past three years, TNO has developed a physical recycling technology based on dissolution capable of polyolefin recovery from metallized multilayer waste. Our efforts culminated in a successful scale-up of the process to TRL5, processing a kg-scale of waste material. Do you want to know more about the TNO Möbius dissolution technology: https://lnkd.in/eeZ_REgt #TNOduurzaam #TNOsustainable #cricularplastics #recycling #sustainability #circulaireeconomie #duurzaamheid

📣New public deliverable available!!! One of the CIMPA's objective is to develop a physical (dissolution) recycling process to recover polyolefins (PO) from multilayer waste streams. The recovered PO are intended to meet food contact requirements. In this report, you can learn about the experiments performed at TRL5 scale , how the plant was built and how the tests were performed at TNO.

🟣 Unlock the secrets of #INNOVATION! 🟣 Last month, we gave you a taste, and now it's here: the first video in our series diving into the #science of BETWEEN. ♻️🚮 Tackling #PlasticWaste is a major global challenge: Over 8 billion metric tons of plastic have been produced since the 1950s – with half of it turning into waste in the last 15 years! Today, #recycling practices still face technical challenges, with contamination being a significant issue. Labels, colorants, or other mixed waste make it harder to go through the recycling process.   Our Adaptable PyOil Upgrading solution plays a crucial role in the chemical recycling of plastics. Watch how we innovate for #GreaterChemistry and a #CircularEconomy.
