We all will agree easily that recycling will be a key source of resources and especially carbon in the future for our economies. Chemical recycling will be important to bring utilisation rates and efficiencies up. Big investments in Europe and North America are on the way. If this is agreeable here comes my question: how could we imagine to make chemical recycling work in a big industry like #ConstructionIndustry if we do not introduce a joint concept of mass balance and attribution? #renewableCarbon #towards2030

Passionate about plastics, circular economy and sustainability. Eager to share knowledge and experience.Board member @ Valipac, Fost Plus, Febelauto, Polycert,PlastIQ, Aquaplus. President of board of Plarebel.
Fully agree, circularising the entire value chain of plastics and not just a part is key to keep Carbons in the loop. This requires all types of recycling technologies ánd biosourcing ánd CCU. #carboncycles #chemicalrecycling #physicalrecycling #mechanicalrecycling #circularplastics

Have you heard of mass balance? ⚖️ A mass balance model accounts for the amount of recycled content present in the production process of new products. Using it, we can measure the amount of renewable and fossil-based materials in products and track how we're contributing to a #circular model for plastics. We believe mass balance is crucial for making more plastics from recycled materials.

We're happy to put a spotlight on the article "𝘋𝘦𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢 𝘤𝘪𝘳𝘤𝘶𝘭𝘢𝘳 𝘤𝘢𝘳𝘣𝘰𝘯 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘴 𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘰𝘮𝘺 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘢 𝘴𝘶𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘧𝘶𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦", authored by researchers at the University of Oxford (and co-authored by one our members in the person of Charlotte Williams, Founder & Chief Scientific Officer at Econic), which was recently published in Nature. The roadmap outlines different pathways that maximise carbon circularity between plastics, waste and feedstocks – a key take-away is that a combination of mechanical and chemical recycling, biomass (and biowaste) as well carbon dioxide are considered necessary. Two major recommendations from the authors are: 🌥 🌳 𝗦𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗰𝗵 𝘁𝗼 𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘄𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰𝘀: replace all fossil-fuel-based plastics with those sourced from alternative feedstocks, accelerating carbon recirculation through use of biomass and CO2. ♻ 𝗠𝗮𝘅𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘆𝗰𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴: design plastic materials and products for circularity and ensure that 95% of plastics are recycled. The publication has been also covered by Forbes in a recent article by David Vetter, where the significance of this endeavour is further emphasised. Vetter highlights the pivotal role of plastics in today's world, while also echoing Charlotte's opinion on the critical need for sustainability-driven redesign: “...𝘸𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮, 𝘣𝘶𝘵 𝘸𝘦 𝘮𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘳𝘦-𝘥𝘦𝘴𝘪𝘨𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦 𝘮𝘶𝘤𝘩 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘴𝘶𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦.

It is encouraging to see that the topic is also increasingly picked up in scientific literature from universities and research.

Business Solutions Group - Senior Executive | ICIS | Shaping the world by connecting markets to optimise global resources
One of the many levers, chemical players can use to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and decrease emissions is the use of renewable / recycled feedstocks. Here is an exciting milestone in sustainable chemicals: Neste and Braskem join forces to revolutionize polymer production in South America! This ground-breaking partnership showcases how the chemical industry is actively transforming its value chain to meet tomorrow's sustainability challenges. By incorporating both recycled and renewable feedstocks into polymer production, we're witnessing a crucial step toward circular economy principles in action. Key highlights: - Integration of chemically recycled plastic waste and renewable materials like UCO - ISCC PLUS certification ensuring transparency and sustainable sourcing Market availability expected Q4 2024 - Focus on maintaining high-quality standards while reducing fossil feedstock dependency This collaboration represents more than just a supply agreement - it's a blueprint for how traditional chemical manufacturing can evolve to meet our climate goals while delivering the essential materials society needs. Proud to see our industry leading the charge in sustainable innovation! 🌿 #SustainableChemistry #CircularEconomy #GreenTransformation #Sustainability #Innovation #chemicalindustry bit.ly/3A2gAup

5moTreating Recycled plastics and their “Recycled carbon” in the same way as the one deriving from virgin fossil resources does not incentivize the market development of recycled plastics used in substitution of virgin fossil materials on an industrial scale. To promote the uptake of Recycled plastics (EoW) as defined in WFD and generate environmental benefits, appropriate mechanisms should be introduced such as the allocation of Carbon Credits to Recycled plastic and the establishment of a discounted ets price for Recycled Carbon compared to the carbon contained in virgin fossil resources.
