The WSS Research Centre catalaix is spearheading the development of new recycling technologies that will drive the transition to a multidimensional circular economy. Through catalysis, we enable the sustainable processing of complex waste streams and the integration of renewable energy into production processes.
The WSS Research Centre catalaix collaborates with a supra-regional network of interdisciplinary researchers from RWTH Aachen University and Forschungszentrum Jülich. This network includes expertise in various fields, from basic research to high-level technology translation, ensuring comprehensive solutions for a sustainable circular economy.
Insights into the festive launch of the WSS Research Centre catalaix: Guests from politics, industry and science came together to celebrate this special milestone.
