Henk Alssema, of Vita Plastics and chair of BIR\u2019s plastics committee, believes chemical recycling could be on the verge of \u2018a worrying breakthrough\u2019. At the centre of debate is the European Commission\u2019s current position, favouring the \u2018fuel use exempt\u2019 method when calculating the contribution of chemical recyclers.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018As it stands, the European Commission is likely to stick to this so-called mass balance approach, which creates an uneven playing field between mechanical and chemical recyclers, opening the door to further investment by the chemical recycling industry.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Another worrying issue raised by the chairman in the Mirror is the challenge of finding qualified personnel. He says many companies are being forced to scale back production owing to insufficient numbers of available staff. \u2018Young people are increasingly choosing jobs in IT and overlooking the mechanical sector despite its high levels of innovation,\u2019 Alssema writes. Finally, he says the market for recycled plastic in Europe has improved since the beginning of this year, but only slightly rather than substantially.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/recyclinginternational.com\/commodities\/plastics-recycling\/chemical-recycling-still-a-concern-in-europe\/57165\/\">Recycling International<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/1-524\/\">Chemical recycling still a concern in Europe<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[1197,575,2325],"class_list":["post-130404","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-chemical-recycling","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-workforce"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/130404","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=130404"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/130404\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=130404"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=130404"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=130404"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
