Scope of the Symposium
The symposium encompasses all topics related to the recycling and recovery of polymeric waste like waste plastics (municipal, industrial, production, process, e-waste) and biomass.
- Mechanical recycling of waste plastics
- Thermo-chemical recycling (pyrolysis, gasification, combustion etc.) for industrial, municipal plastic waste and biomass
- Biological routes for industrial, municipal plastic waste and biomass (biogas, bioethanol)
- Recovery of organics, inorganics, and metals from composite materials (CFRP, solar batteries and panels, etc.)
- E-waste treatment techniques
- Polymer waste management
- Legislation in waste management
- Sustainability – LCA studies
- Polymeric waste availability and conversion methods – statistics and strategies
- Socio-economic questions of recycling
