Excerpt

This chapter delves into the mass balance approach, a method that tracks the use of alternative feedstocks like recycled plastics, biomass, and CO2 in plastic production. It explains how this approach ensures high-quality, sustainable plastics while complying with European regulations. The chapter also discusses the historical development of the mass balance concept, its role in the circular economy, and the importance of certification and transparency. It highlights the need for investments in recycling technologies and the potential of the mass balance approach to meet sustainability goals. The chapter concludes by emphasizing the significance of the mass balance method in achieving a circular economy and the need for continued support from laws and innovations.
