Workshop on the Ecological Recycling of Biopolymers

On 6 November 2025 in Zlín, a workshop of the project SS06020282 – Ecological Recycling of Biopolymers was held as part of the NCK PolyEnvi meeting, involving teams from SYNPO, UTB Zlín, the Centre of Organic Chemistry, and the Plastics Cluster.
The project focused on the chemical recycling of PLA and the development of sustainable biosolvents. The result is a validated technology for the decomposition of biopolymers and the EcoReSolv (M, P, G) product range based on methyl lactate, offering an environmentally friendly alternative to petroleum-based solvents.
The project outputs support the development of the circular economy and related applications in industrial practice. The project was funded by the Technology Agency of the Czech Republic under the Environment for Life program.
