RESYNTEX Final Conference: From Textile Waste to Secondary Raw Materials
24 April 2019 - 24 April 2019
Belgium
Speakers will include:
- Vittoria Troppenz, Head of Circularity & Business Development, SOEX
- Aleksandra Lobnik, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and the Head of the Centre of Sensor Technology, University of Maribor
- Nicholas Hall, Senior Lecturer – Fashion Business, Manchester Metropolitan University
- Athanassios Nikolakopoulos, Chemical Engineer and Senior Researcher, Department of Process Analysis and Plant Design, National Technical University of Athens
- Valérie Boiten, Consultant and Researcher in Stakeholder Engagement, Prospex Institute
These sessions will highlight alternative solutions for textiles which would otherwise be incinerated or landfilled, such as innovative reprocessing technologies for pure or blended fibres and secondary materials which can replace virgin feedstock.
Following the sessions, policy makers will join a panel discussion with circular economy and technology experts from the clothing, waste management and chemical industries to address how technological and business model solutions can help bring (bio)chemical recycling to market adoption.
The RESYNTEX Final Conference will be held as part of the Annual Textile ETP Conference (24-25 April) at the Hotel Bristol Stephanie. European thought-leaders from industry, research and policy will share their vision on how circular economy concepts, bio-based materials and digitalisation will impact the future of the European Textile and Clothing industry.
