Scale up of Recycling Processes of Polymer-coated Papers and Coffee Cups
This internship aims to improve the design and development of an innovative patented process to recycle these polymer-coated paper products and waste coffee cups. By addressing the issue of waste papers, using this green technology, we would save 80% of water, while also achieving a 74% reduction in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and a 35% reduction in water-polluting emissions. This would also help Canada in achieving its commitment to net-zero emissions by 2050, and in meeting its international commitments on global warming, net-zero emissions, and deforestation in:
• The Paris Agreement
• The 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference also known as ‘COP26 Climate Summit’ in Glasgow, Scotland).
