We are part of an Interreg project about Ocean-bound Plastic

University of Gdańsk will contribute to the identification, analysis and characterization of collected plastic waste, and also will carry out chemical recycling of waste fractions of insufficient quality to be subjected to mechanical methods. The Circular Ocean-bound Plastic (COP) project will be implemented in the Department of Environmental Technology in partnership with representatives from Denmark (CLEAN Cluster - Lider, The Foundation Plast Center Denmark, Ocean Plastic Forum), Sweden (Sustainable Business Hub), Germany (University of Rostock , Leibniz Institute for Baltic Sea Research) and Poland (University of Gdańsk, Gdańsk Sports Center and Gdańsk Water Foundation).

Funding: The project is funded by [Interreg South Baltic] with funds from the European Regional Development Fund, aiming to unlock the potentials of the South Baltic’s blue and green growth through cross-border cooperation between local and regional actors from Denmark, Germany, Lithuania, Poland and Sweden.
