VI International Symposium
Each year the MSc. WASTE , a department of the University of Stuttgart , organizes the International Symposium wherein experts from industry and academia, and young minds come together to share knowledge and discuss challenges to sustainable development and environmental security. In 2022, the EU project FlashPhos was presented at the VI International Symposium.
Emerging Technologies and Transition to Circular Economy
The VI International Symposium intended to explore innovative advances that can address and shepherd the transition to inclusive circular economy solutions, unlocking the potential to curb emissions for a sustainable future. Emerging technologies and their convergence towards a circular economy paradigm have a transformational effect across global value chains.
