Parallel Sessions
One of the sessions focuses on innovation in plastic waste. This session will be introduced and moderated by Gerard van der Laan, Senior Scientist Circular Plastics of TNO. Three innovators will get the stage, among them is Pyroil, who use pyrolysis technology to produce oil from plastic waste.
In the organic waste session, we welcome Erik Hoeksema, Division Manager Wastelab from Milgro. Erik will be in charge of moderating the session including a pitch of Bio-boost.
The third break-out session covers waste in the built environment. Fittingly, we invited Hanneke van der Heijden, Sustainability Specialist at Woonstad Rotterdam to moderate this session. Among the innovators for this session is TU Delft together with Bribus to present their circular kitchen concept.
Triboo Demonstration
Before we move to the drinks, we welcome Marc van der Heijden from Triboo for a demonstration. Triboo is the circular supply chain and uses waste as a resource to create furniture and interior designs for organizations.
Stay tuned for more information while we continue to shape the full program for this event. We are looking forward to welcoming you the 25th of June.
