Collection, recycling and reuse of plastic company waste
PlastiCity, a European-funded project running in Ghent, The Hague, Southend-on-Sea and Douai, is testing the viability of collecting, recycling and reusing plastic industrial waste that is not yet recycled. European research shows that the recycling rate for plastic industrial waste is still too low (around 20-30%). Especially in cities, such as Ghent, there is a lot of plastic industrial waste available. Yet these 'lost' plastics can play an important role in a circular economy.
