The Institute of Green Hydrogen Energy, Zhejiang Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (Jiaxing Zhongke Haishi Alloy Technology Co., Ltd.), creatively transforms solid waste into super green hydrogen energy and negative carbon emission fuel natural gas through imitating mantle molten technology , to achieve the reduction of greenhouse gases in the earth’s atmosphere.
Mi Terro is the world’s first synthetic biology and advanced material company that utilizes big data to create home compostable, single-use plastic-alternative packaging materials made from plant-based agricultural waste – this is a first-of-its-kind approach. We are excited to see such a significant leap forward in our ability to manipulate nature’s most diverse and abundant building blocks.
Foshan Lanqi Technology Co., Ltd. was established in January 2020. It is the tenth of “Blue Ocean Talents” team introduced by the Nanhai District Government of Foshan City, the “Science and Technology Talents” of the Guangdong Provincial Science and Technology Department. It aims to develop high-efficiency agricultural technology, providing products such as pre-harvest protection and post-harvest fresh integrated liquid, and solve the problem of overuse of pesticide and the cost of manual bagging in the agricultural production process.
More exciting moments | The roadshow teams conducted in-depth communication with leading international and domestic chemical companies, well-known universities and research institutes, and investors.
圣戈班的使命“MAKING THE WORLD A BETTER HOME”指引着集团践行具有责任感的增长战略，这一使命也是圣戈班集团所有员工的共同目标，每天做出一点行动，将世界打造成更加美丽、更具可持续性的理想居所。
Saint-Gobain designs, manufactures and distributes materials and solutions for the construction, mobility, healthcare and other industrial application markets. Developed through a continuous innovation process, they can be found everywhere in our living places and daily life, providing wellbeing, performance and safety, while addressing the challenges of sustainable construction, resource efficiency and the fight against climate change.
This strategy of responsible growth is guided by the Saint-Gobain purpose, “MAKING THE WORLD A BETTER HOME”, which responds to the shared ambition of all the women and men in the Group to act every day to make the world a more beautiful and sustainable place to live in.
Background description: In respond to findings from the latest climate science, Saint-Gobain signed the pledge in 2019 to reach net-zero emissions by no later than 2050. The construction and building industry emits 40% of the total CO2 emission globally. Reducing carbon emission when producing building materials by using recycled and sustainable alternatives has significant social and economic impacts. This effort is also aligned with China’s 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-2025) on Circular Economy Development.
Objective: Identify opportunities to create green building materials from the circular economy approach. Incorporate recycled content or sustainable alternatives as raw materials for building materials, including waste or byproduct from construction, renovation, agriculture and other general industrial applications. Explore recycle and upcycle methods for building products at the end of their service life.

38. Recovery and recycling of waste specialty polymers by depolymerization
Background description: Specialty Polymers are advanced materials that are widely used in transportation, electronics, and industrial applications. They can have superior mechanical performance, fatigue and wear resistance, and high-quality surface finish. They can be strong, lightweight polymers, fluids and elastomers that provide competitive solutions, greater design freedom and added value. They play a very important role in reducing energy consumption thus carbon emission reduction. Yet some of the specialty polymers are also very difficult to be reused and recycled.
Objective: Looking for innovative ways to depolymerize the specialty polymers such as PEEK, PSU, PESU, and PPS through chemical, biological, or other methods to decompose them back to monomer or oligomer states to be reused.
