The new partners are the ASEM Water Resources Research and Development Center, the China Resource Recycling Association, German RETech Partnership and the Foreign Economic Cooperation Office. In the area of waste disposal and recycling, this year’s supporting program will focus on how biogenic waste can be used more effectively in China. At IE expo China 2017, Prof. Dr. mont. Michael Nelles, Scientific Director at the German Biomass Research Center, Professor at the University of Rostock and head of the RETech working group China, and his Chinese partners will present possible solutions as to how China and Germany can work more closely together in this area in the future. The study entitled “Use of biogenic fractions from residential waste in the People’s Republic of China”, which was sponsored by the Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Building and Nuclear Safety as part of the Environmental Technologies export initiative, will provide the basis for the discussions. The session is being organized by the German RETech Partnership, a new partner aiming to step up its activities in the Chinese waste disposal and recycling sector.
