Teaser – Meet the People of ACTPAC
The teaser offers a first glance into the Meet the People of ACTPAC interview series, introducing the researchers and partners behind the project. It sets the stage for the video series by highlighting the expertise, collaboration and shared vision driving ACTPAC’s work on sustainable and circular plastic solutions.
Aarhus University
Episode 1
This episode presents AU’s work on green enzymatic technologies to functionalise hydrocarbons derived from polyethylene waste, enabling sustainable conversion into valuable building blocks for biodegradable plastics.
Utrecht University
Episode 2
Utrecht University focuses on heterogeneous catalysis to break down polyethylene into defined hydrocarbon fractions, supporting the production of tailored intermediates for new polymer materials.
University of Münster
Episode 3
The University of Münster develops microbial cell factories to convert polyethylene-derived compounds into diacids and dialcohols, essential building blocks for biodegradable polymers.
CNRS
Episode 4
The CNRS team works on polymer synthesis, transforming ACTPAC-derived monomers into new polyesters and developing scalable materials from plastic waste streams.
University of Groningen
Episode 5
The University of Groningen applies enzymatic catalysis to synthesize sustainable polymers with controlled properties under environmentally friendly conditions.
AIMPLAS
Episode 6
AIMPLAS evaluates the environmental and economic performance of ACTPAC’s technologies, ensuring their sustainability through life cycle assessment and Safe and Sustainable by Design principles.
