Program, Speakers and Abstract Submission

ChemRec II – Thermochemical Recycling of Plastics

Call for Abstracts

The call for abstracts will open soon.  An announcement will be sent to all on the mailing list.

You may pick one or two sessions from the list of proposed sessions that you feel your work fits best:

  1. Characterization and pretreatment of plastic waste feedstocks (e.g., for contaminants removal).
  2. Fundamentals of pyrolysis, liquefaction, gasification and catalytic depolymerization technologies (reaction mechanisms, reaction kinetics, product selectivity, effects of heat and mass transfer limitations, catalysis).
  3. Reactor development and modelling (testing and modelling of lab-scale units)
  4. Process development and integration (testing of fully continuous laboratory setups and pilot installations providing a full mass balance closure, including pre-treatment, reaction and product separation).
  5. Product characterization, separation and upgrading (refers to chemical characterization, isolation, purification and post treatment / upgrading of the products from pyrolysis or liquefaction to e.g., remove contaminants/impurities.
  6. Successful demonstration, scale-up and commercialization

·         Oral Abstract deadline: March 31, 2026
