APME Association of Plastics Manufacturers

APME (Association of Plastics Manufacturers Europe, today Plastics Europe), with member companies given in [29] has classified plastic waste in a series of categories and monitors their origin and recycling, according to their field of application. Several early publications are still of interest, to compare past and present. A recent book on plastics recycling is Scheirs [38]. A few sites of interest are also ... [Pg.40]

A study by the Association of Plastics Manufacturers in Europe (APME) assessed the environmental impacts of mechanical and feedstock recycling and energy recovery of waste plastics. It was compared in terms of consumption of resomces and environmental emission pollution potential. The criteria of consumption of energetically exploitable resources and contribution to the greenhouse effect lead to the following order of preference for feedstock recycling and energy recovery processes ...

The Association of Plastics Manufacturers in Europe (APME) has produced a series of ecoprofile reports on various plastics, including packaging materials. APME adopted the term ecoprofile since the analysis extends only to the point of sale and does not cover disposal. Also, the reports do not include the impact or improvement portions of life-cycle assessment. The reports are publicly available on the association website, www.apme.org and are updated periodically. [Pg.168]

Plastics rely on a feedstock used for energy production, but at the same time they need less of it per ton of product than other materials. The European Association of Plastic Manufacturers (APME) in Brussel has made a big effort over the last decade to develop a life-cycle analysis approach for an environmental positioning of all major plastic materials [1]. Meanwhile, the data for most polymers for resource demand and major emissions have been evaluated and published based on the average data of all European production sites. [Pg.525]
