BASF: collaboration on recycled plastics

(CercleFinance.com) - BASF announces that it has teamed up with Endress+Hauser, TechnoCompound and the German Universities of Bayreuth and Jena to improve the mechanical recycling of plastics as part of the SpecReK project, funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF), which aims to precisely identify the composition of plastic waste during the recycling process, in order to improve the quality of recycled plastics.


This will be achieved by combining state-of-the-art measurement techniques with artificial intelligence (AI).

The project, worth a total of 2.2 million euros, is largely funded by the BMBF, with the remainder covered by the project partners. BASF, Endress+Hauser, TechnoCompound, the University of Bayreuth and Friedrich Schiller University Jena are collaborating on the project.
