Today, there exists an extensive number of detection systems, developed all over the world. Each system can be specific for the detection of one or several agents and may be part of a larger system that integrates the information from all individual systems, processes the data and manages the visualization, notification and operation. However, there are sometimes interoperability constraints, and some of the would-be technically optimal subsystems are incompatible with the overall system.
The CEN Workshop on "Determination of 3-hydroxyvalerate content in PHBV by nuclear magnetic resonance" stems from the ongoing Horizon 2020 upPE-T project, which aims at upcycling recalcitrant oil-based plastics by bioconversion into biodegradable bioplastic for food and drink packaging production. upPE-T includes sustainable strategies as an alternative for plastic chemical degradation, improving PE and PET depolymerization through enzymatic engineering to positively impact food and drink packaging recycling rate and achieving the European Union expected impact.
The forthcoming CEN workshop will focus on the revision of CWA 17815:2021, titled “Materials characterisation - Terminology, metadata and classification,” based on insights from the European project NanoMECommons.
