Program Manager Renewable Plastics

I am trained as a chemical engineer and have been working at Wageningen Food and Biobased Research for over 25 years on topics related to biobased and biodegradable polymers. Currently I am programme manager Renewable Plastics. Within this programme our vision is that plastics need to be produced from renewable resources, are recyclable and do not accumulate in nature. The scope of the program is the entire chain from raw material pre-treatment, synthesis of building blocks, production of plastics and the processing of these plastics into new applications.
