🚀 Exciting News! New Renewable Carbon Certificate - OK renewable carbon TÜV AUSTRIA Group and nova-Institute have launched the "OK renewable carbon" certificate, commissioned by the Renewable Carbon Initiative. 🌍 This certification supports the shift from fossil carbon to renewable carbon sources like biomass, CO₂, and recycling in various products. #RenewableCarbon #Sustainability #GreenCertification #RenewableMaterials #CarbonFootprint #ClimateAction #CircularEconomy #OKRenewableCarbon #TÜVAUSTRIA #RenewableMaterialsConference

440 participants discussed the defossilisation of the chemical and materials industry through biomass, CO2 and recycling. The audience voted for the “Renewable Material of the Year 2024”: Acetic acid from CO2 by Danish start-up Again wins 1st price. Hürth, 18 June 2024: Over three days, 440 participants from 26 countries met, representing leading brand manufacturers, chemical and material companies, as well as the European Commission – DG Grow, Clima, Environment and RTD – and the Dutch and German governments. As in previous years, participants were extremely satisfied: High-quality, cutting-edge content in the 80 presentations, in-depth discussions in ten workshops, an exhibition, the election of the “Renewable Material of the Year 2024”, extensive networking opportunities during the conference and the three evening events, an overall professional and enjoyable atmosphere (“special spirit”) – right down to a traditional carnival dance show from the region as a big surprise at the evening buffet. The article below talks about an important and significant event, which is the Renewable Materials Conference.

The Renewable Materials Conference is the world’s largest conference on chemicals and materials based on #biomass, #CCU or #Recycling – the only alternatives to fossil-based chemicals and materials. The unique concept of presenting all #renewable material solutions at one event hits the mark. It covers the entire value chain from alternative carbon feedstocks, the #ChemicalIndustry, the materials sector, product manufacturers to brand owners and investors. Nearly 500 participants from 32 countries attended the last conference in May 2023, 90% of whom were from industry. #BioBased #CO2Capture #AdvancedRecycling #Defossilisation

In a recent press release by the nova-Institut GmbH, it's been revealed that products made from crude oil have a significantly higher CO₂ footprint than previously assumed. This revelation comes as a pivotal moment for the sustainability and life cycle assessment (LCA) community, showing that the carbon footprint for fossil naphtha has almost doubled, with commodity plastics such as PET, PE, and PP seeing increases of around 30%. This significant update aligns perfectly with the focus of their upcoming webinar, where our Commercial Lead, Liz Manning, will delve into "Econic Technologies: Opportunities and Challenges in Quantifying Sustainability Impact for Essential Products in Complex Manufacturing Supply Chains." Liz's discussion is now more relevant than ever, highlighting the urgent need for a shift towards renewable carbon-based products and the critical examination of fossil-based product LCAs. Join us on 29 February 2024, from 14:00 to 15:00 CET, for a webinar hosted by Nova-Institut GmbH, where Liz, along with speakers from SCS Global Services and AllocNow, will explore these pressing issues. Together, we'll discuss the implications of these findings and how they confirm the critical need for transparency, standardization, and a data-driven approach to sustainability in complex supply chains. https://lnkd.in/dxsKvgr

Switching to a circular economy isn't just about sustainability - it's about smart business. By embracing circularity, we can not only reduce our environmental impact, but also save resources, increase efficiency, and create new opportunities for innovation. Join BASF in the circular revolution and help us build a more sustainable future for our planet. What is BMB and how does it contribute to circularity?

📣 #FuelsEurope’s Advocacy Strategy Executive Emanuela Sardellitti participated last week in the 11th GBEP Bioenergy Week organised in Rome, Italy by the FAO in collaboration with the Italian Ministry for the Environment and Energy Security. This event aimed to enhance learning from positive experiences on sustainable production and use of #bioenergy integrated within agri-food production value chains, to support the design and implementation of bioenergy policies 🍃. During her session on liquid #biofuels, Emanuela stressed that, today, liquid fuels provide energy to almost everything that moves. Most of these fuels are currently conventional, but this must change by gradually replacing fossil feedstocks with sustainable #biomass, waste, recycled CO2 and clean hydrogen. 💧 The transformation of the EU Fuel Manufacturing industry is already taking place, with some conventional refineries already converted to bio-refineries and many ongoing #RenewableFuels projects. She further explained that sustainable, renewable liquid fuels are extremely suitable to decarbonise all transport modes immediately without the need to wait for the renewal of the fleets and the installation of new logistics infrastructures. Over many years, our industry has demonstrated the capacity to adapt to market demands and regulatory changes. And facing this new challenge, it has the professional and the technical skills to contribute to a low-carbon future. She stressed that, to be successful in the transition, the industry needs a long-term horizon driven by a Strategy for the transition of Liquid Fuels and Products as part of the regulatory blueprint of the upcoming EU cycle. #CleanFuelsforAll #GBEPBioenergyWeek2024
