Circular feedstock processes in a circular economy

We focus on developing innovative and sustainable technologies for the transition to sustainable fuels and raw materials. This is essential to help industry achieve the ambitious targets of 50% circularity and a 55% reduction in CO2 emissions by 2030, and full circularity and climate neutrality by 2050, as required by European policy.
