Description
Dow is collaborating with Google X – and its team of inventors, scientists, engineers, and entrepreneurs – to develop technology that identifies plastic waste at the molecular level to improve the way recycling centers process film and flexible plastic packaging. This work aligns to Google X’s Moonshot for Circularity and Dow’s focus on scaling the materials ecosystem – for better ways to make, use and reuse plastics. Join us to hear about this partnership and insights from both companies on technology breakthroughs in material identification and curating waste streams for recycling operations and the downstream markets.
