Dear readers,

 

“Zero waste design” and the circular economy are the buzzwords of our time. But what exactly is behind them and how far have we come as a society and as an economy in implementing this ideal concept of a sustainable future? In the article “An integrated approach – Perspectives on ‘zero waste design’ from page 51, Dr. Joachim Harder takes a closer look at this exciting topic and highlights various concepts and ideas.

In the article “Improved purchasing strategy – Wood processor C2R opts for a horizontal crusher from Vecoplan”, the efficient and high-quality processing of wood residues is described in detail using a case study from French wood processor C2R. The Vecoplan VVB primary crusher is at the heart of the system tailored to the customer‘s needs.
Many other exciting topics, e.g. in the areas of plastic, metal and biomaterial recycling, await you in this issue.

 

Have a good time
