Waste as a resource
Waste as a resource can have a major impact for Germany as an industrial center, confirms Dr. Ines Freesen, Managing Director of Freesen & Partner GmbH, who together with organizer Messe Bremen launched the WASTE TO ENERGY+RECYCLING six years ago. In Bremen we want to show what is technically feasible, what makes economic sense, and where the journey will lead us.
The URBAN MINING congress is organized for the second time by Essen-based FUP AG and its partner think!tank Gesellschaft für Zukunftsgestaltung, Dortmund. It is important to us to raise awareness for the different aspects of Urban Mining and to connect its stakeholders, says Rainer Weichbrodt, Managing Director of think!tank.
