Dear Readers,
For a fact-based discussion on plastics in the environment, relevant studies with meaningful data and information are a major requirement. In our newsletter, we therefore report on results from scientific papers in this thematic area. We keep you up to date with fresh findings obtained, for example, from studies carried out by BKV GmbH.
In this issue, we report among other things on the research project entitled "Circular Ocean-bound Plastic" (COP), which was launched at the end of 2023 by the University of Rostock and the Leibniz Institute for Baltic Sea Research Warnemünde (IOW), together with European partners. It has set itself the target of reducing the quantity of plastic litter that gets by way of rivers into the Baltic Sea. With this regards, the project focuses in particular on macroplastics and urban areas. We asked Mona Maria Narra from the University of Rostock about details of the project. You can read more about this in our interview.
In the section entitled "BKV projects", our newsletter gives an overview of studies carried out by BKV GmbH in its focus area "Plastics in the Environment". In a statement, Christoph Lindner, managing partner of Conversio Market & Strategy GmbH, who carried out the studies on behalf of BKV, addresses topics for further possible investigations in this field.
We wish you an interesting read.
Kind regards,
