Webinar over efficiëntie en duurzaamheid bouw- en sloopafval
Bouw- en sloopafval is een van de grootste afvalstromen in de afvalinzameling en -recycling. Veel van nieuwe secundaire grondstoffen die dat oplevert, zoals metalen, glas, hout en beton, kunnen opnieuw worden gebruikt. Behalve dat dit bijdraagt aan duurzaamheid levert het ook een kostenbesparing op. Tijdens een webinar op 11 februari belichten experts van de AMCS Group oplossingen specifiek voor recyclers van bouw- en sloopafval. Centraal daarbij staan het verbeteren van de efficiëntie van de afvallogistiek en het vergroten van duurzaamheid van processen. Het thema van het webinar sluit aan op EU-beleid. Om de slag te maken naar een circulair Europa scherpt Brussel de richtlijnen voor recycling in 2024 verder aan, onder meer voor bedrijfsafval en niet-gevaarlijk industrieel afval.
