Objectives

• Deepen understanding of the fundamental differences between conventional plastics and bioplastics, including their feedstock base, properties, and areas of application.
• Introduce the environmental aspects of bioplastic production and use, particularly through the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) approach and analysis of actual environmental impacts.
• Develop a systemic understanding of the environmental, resource-related, and technological aspects of bioplastic production and application within the context of sustainable development.
• Present real industrial case studies on the implementation of bioplastics and other sustainable materials across various sectors.
• Provide an overview of current regulatory and strategic trends in the field of sustainable materials and the circular economy.
• Develop practical skills in assessing the feasibility of using bioplastics in specific products through a practical assignment.
