Secondary Raw Materials: An Opportunity to Move Towards a More Circular Industry
Resource availability, price fluctuations and uncertainty in supply chains are some of the factors currently shaping industrial activity. In this context, secondary raw materials offer an alternative to reducing dependence on virgin materials and making better use of available resources.
These materials, obtained through recovery and valorisation processes, can be reintegrated into different production processes and help keep resources in circulation. However, their incorporation also raises challenges related to quality, availability, the adaptation of industrial processes and the connection between companies generating these materials and those able to use them.
Against this backdrop, the Catalan Industrial Symbiosis Platform (PSIC) is organising an in-person event to explore the potential of secondary raw materials and analyse the factors that can facilitate their integration into industry.
The session will provide an opportunity to share different perspectives on current challenges and the business collaboration opportunities that industrial symbiosis offers to promote the valorisation of recovered materials.
We encourage you to take part and discover the opportunities that secondary raw materials offer to industry!
