The recycling industry uses scrap which, when melted and casted, is turned into recycled aluminium products used by variety of industries. Work remains to develop a harmonized approach to carbon content in recycled products, definition of scrap inputs, scrap availability, product circularity, carbon-related policies, and other issues.
Circularity in automotive plastics is no longer a nice-to-have. With regulators pushing for recycled content in new vehicles and consumer expectations shifting toward greener products, the industry is facing mounting pressure to rethink how plastics are designed, used and reused.
Digital connectivity shapes our daily lives, with the demand for vast data centres to process information reaching unprecedented levels. However, data centre operations come with an environmental cost, particularly regarding materials, energy and water usage. Integrating circular water solutions and management principles can help ensure data centres can support future technological advancements.
