We develop new processes and products where waste streams and underutilized nature resources are used as raw materials for new value-added products, thereby supporting UN sustainability subgoals 12.2 and 12.5:
UN subgoal 12.2: “By 2030, achieve the sustainable management and efficient use of natural resources.”
UN subgoal 12.5: “By 2030, substantially reduce waste generation through prevention, recycling and reuse.”
Examples of projects at RISE PFI supporting UN sustainability goals 12.2 and 12.5 are given below:
