Presentation

The symposium Green Deal, Industrial Ecology and Circular Economy will be held at the MSH Clermont in Clermont-Ferrand on December 5th-6th, 2024.

This event is part of the scientific activities of the WHITECYCLE project, a Horizon Europe project led by Michelin. This project brings together fifteen private and public partners from five different countries: France, Germany, Norway, Spain, and Turkey. The WHITECYCLE scheme aligns with the European Commission's action plan for a circular economy.

The aim of this project is to develop a circular solution to transform complex textile-based plastic waste into high-value products. This industrial project also involves academic researchers who explore the economic, social, and environmental impacts of the circular solution.

This symposium is co-organized by the Université Clermont Auvergne, Clermont Auvergne INP, the CERDI, the Jean Monnet Excellence Center on Sustainability and the Western Norway University of Applied Sciences - HVL.

Aims and objectives of the symposium

The symposium will gather researchers and practitioners who will present their research works on industrial ecology and circular economy. They will discuss the results of existing industrial projects, they will also debate on politics and strategies and suggest new models integrating industrial ecology.

Approximately 40 papers will be selected for presentation. A poster session is also scheduled.

Deadline for submissions: August 30th 2024 on this website.
