ISIE Conference in Leiden (2nd – 5th July)

We are pleased to announce that our research was recently presented at the 11th International Conference on Industrial Ecology (July 2-5). The conference provided an excellent platform to share our methods and preliminary findings with researchers and experts in the field of industrial ecology. We also had the opportunity to learn about very inspiring plastic flow modeling projects in other regions of the world. We are now eager to further refine our research based on the insightful feedback we received, and look forward to contributing valuable insights for sustainable materials management in Norway and beyond. Stay tuned for upcoming publications detailing the comprehensive results of our study on scenarios to reduce plastic production and waste generation.
