EUBP Talk: Alternative feedstock series wrap

How can we include alternative feedstocks in a coherent European framework for biobased plastics? Today, bioplastics are mostly made of carbohydrate-rich plants, such as corn or sugar cane, so-called food crops or agro-based feedstock. Agro feedstock is currently the most efficient to produce bioplastics, as it requires the least amount of land to grow and produces…
