The Amsterdam pilot project focuses on increasing the collection of clothing, household linens and leisure (hotel linen) textiles at city level by involving citizens in a series of hands-on educational experiences, lectures and expert interviews that provide entry points for iterative learning. The Amsterdam Pilot aims to create an exchange system platform. This platform will track and trace materials, promote the achievement of circular flow and cycles, and incentivise business opportunities by promoting and mapping businesses involved in material recycling. www.reflowproject.eu"

Phase 1 of the CPT aimed to map the value chain and to hypothesize ways to improve processes, equipment or technology in sorting centers and processing facilities in order to create a greater synergy among stakeholders, as well as to carry out preliminary simulations to test these hypotheses. Phase I was financed by Environment and Climate Change Canada, Eco-Enterprises Québec and the six founding partners. It was concluded in early 2021. This conference will present the CPT’s unique collaborative model, highlight some of its key preliminary findings and present its next steps."

Li-Cycle is a clean technology company aiming to address this challenge and to support the industry in meeting the rapidly growing demand for critical battery materials. As one of few companies focused solely on recycling Li-ion batteries, the company has a unique insight into the challenges and opportunities of the industry, as well as the necessity for proper end-of-life logistics management. This presentation will explore the urgent need for creating a local and sustainable critical battery materials supply chain, while addressing the economic and sustainability challenges of Li-ion battery recycling, demonstrating how Li-Cycle Spoke & Hub Technologies are able to help overcome these industry challenges and close the loop for critical battery materials around the world."
