PEFerence establishes a unique, industrial scale, cost-effective flagship plant to convert plant-based sugars into FDCA (furandicarboxylic acid), the building block of PEF (polyethylene furanoate): a plant-based, fully recyclable plastic material with superior performance and significantly reduced carbon footprint compared to conventional plastics. PEF can be used in a wide range of applications such as bottles, packaging, films, fibers and textiles.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With a free webinar, the PEFerence consortium gives their audience the opportunity to learn about the path from innovation and technology development towards commercialization of PEF from Ed de Jong, VP Development at Avantium. Afterwards, Roy Visser, the Team Leader Application Development at Avantium, will give new insights into PEF recycling. There will be time for questions to be answered live by the experts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/us02web.zoom.us\/webinar\/register\/WN_lsTQRnXST9up8FEwWs3VRw\" target=\"_blank\">Registration link<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2023\/02\/Roy-Visser-5-300x200-1.jpg\" alt=\"Roy Visser, Team Leader Application Development at Avantium Technologies\" class=\"wp-image-123492\" width=\"225\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2023\/02\/Roy-Visser-5-300x200-1.jpg 300w, https:\/\/renewable-carbon.eu\/news\/media\/2023\/02\/Roy-Visser-5-300x200-1-150x100.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><figcaption>Roy Visser, Team Leader Application Development at Avantium Technologies<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The PEFerence project receives funding from the Bio-based Industries Joint Undertaking (JU) under the European Union\u2019s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 744409.
