Advancing Plastics Recycling in Asia-Pacific: NUTEC's Innovative Approaches and Future Pathways

Since its launch in May 2021, the IAEA Nuclear Technology for Controlling Plastic Pollution (NUTEC Plastics) has achieved significant milestones in addressing plastic pollution by pioneering advanced recycling technologies. This event will spotlight the transition from research to development in the Asia-Pacific region, showcasing collaborative efforts with industrial partners, key achievements, and valuable lessons learned. Highlighting success stories from the Philippines, Indonesia, and Malaysia, the session will provide an engaging overview of the current progress and future directions, emphasizing the positive impact and potential of NUTEC Plastics in combating plastic pollution. This event is organized by Philippines.

This event will be held on Thursday, 28 November 2024, from 1.15 p.m. to 2.15 p.m. in Conference Room M6, M Building, Ground floor.

 
“Labs to Riches” is a play on the famous phrase “from rags to riches.” The event seeks to examine best practices in scaling up non-power applications of atomic energy and will feature speakers from 3 countries: one who will share how their company is using recycled plastics to make furniture (Philippines); another who will share their experience in applying nuclear technology at scale in agriculture (Australia); and another who will share the progress on the projects under their technical cooperation programme (Viet Nam). The presentations will be followed by an open forum. 
 
Insights from the speakers and the audience are envisioned to be turned into a compilation of best practices in upscaling non-power applications. This event is organized by Philippines. 
 
This event will be held on Wednesday, 27 November 2024, from 8.00 a.m. to 8.45 a.m. in Conference Room M6, M Building, Ground floor.
