ALPLA is evaluating the patented solvent-based process at a pilot plant in Heerenveen in collaboration with the independent technological institute NTCP.
AIMPLAS, the Plastics Technology Centre, has recently developed a methodology that allows the biodegradability of plastic materials to be assessed three times faster than conventional testing methods.
AIMPLAS is participating in the new Europe-funded greco project, which aims to show the life cycle and techno-economic feasibility of greener and safer bioplastics value chains for the food packaging industry.
