As a continuation of the 5th Session of the Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee, this meeting aimed to negotiate a legally binding international instrument on plastic pollution. Over 2,600 delegates from 183 member states and more than … Read more

As climate change intensifies, reducing high-impact greenhouse gas emissions has become a global priority. While carbon dioxide often dominates discussions, other gases with higher global warming potentials (GWPs) pose even greater short-term threats. Addressing these emissions requires innovative solutions – biochar is one of them. What is Global Warming Potential? … Read more

In the practice of the plastic circular economy, advanced technologies can only realize their true value if they seamlessly integrate into existing supply chains and address real-world challenges. Pyrolysis technology can convert mixed waste plastics into high-quality pyrolysis oil. But how can the “circular value” of this oil be recognized … Read more
