The focus will be on the defossilisation of the chemical industry and fossil-free plastics.
In this session, nova’s best experts will explore ground-breaking developments in bio-based building blocks and polymers, alternative naphtha, biodegradable plastics in China and advanced plastic waste recycling. Each report examines emerging trends, global capacity and market dynamics that are driving the transition to a defossilised, net-zero chemical industry.
Hosts: Michael Carus, Lars Krause, Pia Skoczinski, Gillian Tweddle, Ann Zhang (all nova-institute)
Join us for an engaging discussion with the authors and industry experts for a comprehensive look at the challenges and opportunities in these rapidly evolving sectors.
These four reports will be presented, offering in-depth analyses on alternative naphtha, bio-based building blocks and polymers, advanced recycling, and China’s bio-based and biodegradable plastics industries:
Alternative Naphtha – Technologies and Market, Status and Outlook © nova-InstituteAlternative Naphtha – Technologies and Market, Status and OutlookThis report examines how the chemical industry can move away from fossil-based naphtha. It looks at the pathways to naphtha from different renewable carbon sources – CO?, biomass and recycling – and how these alternatives can be integrated into existing refinery and steam cracker operations. The presentation will cover technologies, market dynamics, industry players and projected capacities that are essential to enable this transition to renewable carbon, which is a critical step towards a defossilised chemical industry.
Bio-based and Biodegradable Plastics Industries in China © nova-InstituteBio-based and Biodegradable Plastics Industries in ChinaIs China leading the global bioeconomy? This report examines China’s rapid advances in bio-based technologies and their impact on the global chemical industry. It explores how China is promoting bio-based and biodegradable plastics, setting the stage for a potential net-zero chemical industry by 2060. The presentation will cover the state of the industry in China, market dynamics and areas where European and Chinese industries could find collaborative and mutually beneficial ways to develop this promising sector.
Bio-based Building Blocks and Polymers – Global Capacities, Production and Trends 2023–2028Bio-based Building Blocks and Polymers – Global Capacities, Production and Trends 2023–2028 © nova-InstituteThis comprehensive overview of the 17 commercially available bio-based polymers provides an in-depth look at recent developments and growth trends. In 2023, notable capacity expansions include a nearly 50% increase in PLA and steady growth in polyamide and epoxy resin production, as well as expanded capacity for 100% bio-based PE. While bio-based PET will decline significantly, other materials such as PE and PP derived from bio-based naphtha will gain traction. The presentation will provide an in-depth look at these shifts and expected trends through 2028, mapping the evolution of this dynamically and fast growing market (CAGR 17%).
Mapping of Advanced Plastic Waste Recycling Technologies and their Global CapacitiesMapping of Advanced Plastic Waste Recycling Technologies and their Global Capacities © nova-InstituteThis comprehensive report provides an in-depth look at the rapidly evolving landscape of advanced plastics recycling technologies, where new players and partnerships continue to emerge. For the first time, the report provides a global analysis of recycling capacity, mapping more than 340 operational and planned facilities and profiling more than 120 technology providers – nearly doubling the number included in the previous edition: An overview of the latest technologies, global input and output capacities, and market insights that clarify this complex and dynamic sector, especially for those familiar with the field and seeking the latest developments.
