PEF – A Circular Bio-Based Polymer with Improved Properties – LCA (22 June 2023)

Webinar recording from 22 June 2023:

The nova-Institute conducted a peer-reviewed Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of Avantium’s PEF applications within the framework of the PEFerence project. The study demonstrated that using 100 % renewable carbon in PEF instead of fossil carbon in PET for producing 250 ml and 500 ml bottles would significantly reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Within this recording, Ingrid Goumans (Team Leader Technical Application Managers at Avantium) first gives a short introduction to Avantiums FDCA and PEF production and the PEFerence project. Afterwards, Dr. Ángel Puente (LCA expert at nova-Institute) is giving you details about the beforementioned LCA. He and Ingrid Goumans are answering the questions of the audience during the last 15 minutes of the recording.
