Circular plastics value chain
In plastics the aim is to improve the recyclability of the targeted plastic waste streams (agricultural plastics, municipal waste management mechanical recycling rejects, plastics from batteries) by complementary mechanical and chemical recycling approaches.
The rise of the recycling rate
TREASoURcE activities aim to create added value products from currently non-circulated plastic waste to support the market development of recycled plastics and to capture the value lost today by utilising mechanical and thermochemical recycling. The target plastic waste streams include rejects from mechanical recycling of municipal plastic waste, agricultural plastics and battery-based plastic waste. During TREASoURcE, the recyclability of these streams will be demonstrated with a target recycling rate of 90 %.
