The Advanced Recycling Conference 2024
November 20 @ 10:00 am - November 21 @ 5:00 pm
Taking place on 20-21 November 2024 in Cologne, Germany and online, the Advanced Recycling Conference 2024 showcases the latest developments in advanced recycling technologies, recycling-based renewable chemicals, building- blocks, monomers, and polymers. The unique concept of presenting novel advanced recycling solutions and related topics at one event guarantees a comprehensive and exciting conference experience, covering technologies such as extrusion, dissolution, solvolysis, enzymolysis, pyrolysis, thermal depolymerisation, gasification, and incineration with Carbon Capture Utilisation (CCU) as well as pre- and post-processing technologies and digital solutions.
The recycling sector faces significant evolutionary pressure due to ambitious targets set by the EU, the chemical industry, brand commitments, and customer demands. On one hand, substantial portions of non-recycled waste streams must be addressed, while on the other, the markets display a growing demand and search for renewable feedstocks for chemicals and materials. Both equally foster discussions on optimal technology selection for various waste streams and methodologies for evaluating their environmental footprint.
As a result, advanced recycling technologies are rapidly evolving, with a continual influx of new entrants ranging from start-ups to industry giants. New facilities are under construction or expanding, while established providers are scaling up operations to achieve higher capacities and forge successful partnerships.
