Every year, recyclables save over 700 million tonnes in CO2 emissions, according to the Global Recycling Foundation. The organisation projects this will increase to one billion tonnes by 2030.

The range of viable waste management processes is increasing each year. Technologies that were once experimental are now mainstream.

There has been a noticeable increase in demand for Erema recycling machine combinations featuring ReFresher technology that reduces odour downstream of the extrusion process.

Ceflex and partners PCEP, Petcore Europe, Styrenics Circular Solutions and MORE Recycling team up to understand the reality of today’s collected household packaging waste.

The new robotic sorting facility will substantially increase material recovery at Bjorstaddalen and make a major move from waste incineration toward a circular economy in the Nordic country.

In general, the topic of waste separation and recycling is unfortunately not yet dealt with as intensively in Israel as it is in Europe. Nevertheless, there is a strong interest and only a few competitive machines that can handle the diverse mixed material.

Sensoneo has introduced its new solution designed to manage and resolve some of the biggest waste-related challenges – a lack of efficiency and transparency.

Worn-out wind turbine blades destined for the incinerator will instead be used to create carbon-friendly reinforced concrete on Britain’s new high-speed rail network.

Northern Ireland based Kiverco has just launched a series of waste recycling plants that are sure to revolutionise the waste industry.

The European market for polymers has been under pressure for several months and the negative consequences of raw material shortages and price increases are seriously impacting the production of plastic products in the EU.
