Halle 2Mikroplastik weiterdenken
14:55 - 15:05, Halle 2
Speaker
Prof. Dr. Michael Burkhardt
Professor, Head of UMTEC Institute, HSR
Die Freisetzung von Mikroplastik mit dem Abwasser in die Umwelt und die Entstehung von Zersetzungsprodukten unter Witterungseinfluss beschäftigen seit einigen Jahren die Öffentlichkeit, aber auch Hersteller oder Verarbeiter von Kunststoffprodukten. Mittlerweile wird berichtet, dass selbst in den entlegensten Regionen Kunststoffreste gefunden werden und über die Nahrungskette sogar beim Menschen angekommen sind.
Unsere Expertise
Nur mit aufwändigen Methoden lässt sich Mikroplastik identifizieren und quantifizieren. Hierzu besitzen das UMTEC und IWK an der HSR umfassende Kompetenzen.
Sind die Massenströme und die Partikelcharakteristika bekannt, lassen sich Massnahmen zur Verringerung von Kunststoffen im Wasser evaluieren und umsetzen. Im Vortrag stellt Ihnen Prof. Dr. Michael Burkhardt verschiedene Massnahmen vor.
This speech will be held in German.

Speaker
Prof. Dipl.-Ing. Daniel Schwendemann
Deputy Head of Institute IWK Head of Compounding / Extrusion Department
Aus Meeresmüll werden Teile für die Uhrenindustrie
Aktuell beschäftigt die Verschmutzung der Meere die Gesellschaft so sehr wie der Klimawandel. Es gibt riesige Flächen im Ozean, die mit Kunststoffmüll bedeckt bzw. regelecht verseucht sind. Man fordert den Stopp von Kunststoffverpackungen. Einige Organisationen haben bereits mit der Reinigung der Meere durch riesige Sammelschiffe begonnen.
Erfahren Sie im Vortrag mehr über eine Prozessvorgehensweise, die Mahlgut klassifiziert und falls notwendig erneut sortiert bzw. wäscht. Mit dem Ziel, das so gewonnene Mahlgut als Rohstoff wieder zu verwenden - beispielsweise in der Uhrenindustrie.
This speech will be held in German.
