28-12 SPIRE 2017 EU Process Industry Conference

SPIRE, the EU-supported public private partnership on sustainable process industries, held a highly-attended conference on 19-20 September, dedicated to picturing the future EU Process Industry, and what can be implemented if appropriate investments are generated. It gathered all relevant stakeholders for the European Process Industry, including many actors from the chemical industry. Among the topics discussed during the event, optimization processes (and the valorization of different energy source), and adaptable processes using alternative feedstock to improve the management of waste and its transformation to resources were highlighted. ECRN Director, Mrs Krcova, attended the event, which was stimulating and fruitful, especially regarding the topic of industrial symbiosis, where she sees a potential for developing a more regional perspective.
