The KuRT_Plus networking and transfer project presented the BMBF funding measure ‘Resource-efficient Circular Economy - Plastic Recycling Technologies’ from 16 to 17 October 2024 at the 13th Resource Efficiency and Circular Economy Congress BW in the new Congress Center Heidelberg.
Together with the K3I-Cycling project of the AI Application Hub on Plastic Packaging, KuRT_Plus presented innovative solutions for optimising plastics recycling. The 1,500 visitors were able to gain an insight into current developments relating to greater resource efficiency, sustainability and the closed-loop recycling of plastic packaging as well as the use of artificial intelligence to conserve resources. In addition to the 75 stands at the trade exhibition, relevant topics such as decarbonisation, GreenTech, circularity and digitalisation were explored in greater depth in the various lecture blocks. The event concluded with an exciting presentation on raw material justice and the availability of raw materials. The congress provided a valuable platform for inspiring discussions and new networking opportunities for the future.
