About

Advanced Recycling Conference (ARC) connects stakeholders across advanced recycling and circular chemicals, focusing on technologies that convert plastic waste and other complex waste streams into high-quality feedstocks, building blocks, monomers, and polymers. The conference covers routes such as chemical recycling, depolymerization, pyrolysis, solvolysis, and complementary solutions across sorting, pre-treatment, contamination management, product quality, life-cycle assessment, and regulatory frameworks relevant to scaling circular value chains. The conference is designed for technology providers, chemical and materials companies, waste management and recycling operators, brand owners, investors, policymakers, and researchers looking for practical pathways from pilot scale to industrial deployment. The program typically combines technical presentations with market and policy perspectives, plus networking formats such as matchmaking meetings, poster contributions, and exhibition opportunities that support partnerships, project sourcing, and commercialization discussions.
