Circular plastic

Interdisciplinary initiative

AAU Circular Plastics

Improved waste management and further re- and upcycling of plastics are needed to limit plastic pollution and to keep it in the value chain. Researchers at Aalborg University are teaming up with national and international companies to contribute to this development.
