“Circular Economy, Waste Valorisation & Sustainable Materials”

Are you interested in the circular economy, waste valorisation, and innovative approaches to developing and managing sustainable materials? Join us for the next EURECA-PRO Online PhD Seminar, focusing on “Circular Economy, Waste Valorisation and Sustainable Materials”.

During this seminar, PhD researchers will present their work on circular strategies for composite materials, the valorisation of biogenic materials, and the chemical recycling of textile waste. Together, the presentations will explore how innovative approaches can help extend material lifetimes, recover valuable resources from waste streams, and support the transition from linear to circular production systems.

Programme highlights:  

• Opening lecture: TBC
• Research presentations by PhD researchers:
  
  • Seyed Majid Tabatabaei – Montanuniversität Leoben: Sustainability assessment of circular economy strategies for advanced composites: A life cycle thinking approach
  • Dirk Damaschke – TU Bergakademie Freiberg: Investigation of biogenic materials of fungal and invertebrate origin
  • Lyudmila Slobodkina – Silesian University of Technology: Experimental research on liquefaction and solvolysis processes of textile waste

The seminar offers an excellent opportunity to broaden your knowledge, discover ongoing research within EURECA-PRO, and learn how researchers are developing innovative approaches to circular materials, waste valorisation and sustainable resource use.

We warmly invite PhD researchers, academics, and anyone interested in the circular economy, sustainable materials, waste valorisation, recycling, and resource efficiency to join us!
