The outlook for bioplastics is obviously bright.\u00a0 We are preparing for this with initiatives like ARC\u2019s new Industrial Transformation Training Centre for Bioplastics and Biocomposites, which brings together industry and researchers from across the value chain \u2013 from resource development to product design to end-of-life management.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Presentation by Associate Professor Steven Pratt (The University of Queensland)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":186,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"nba-redirect":"","footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[6],"tags":[5,15,10],"class_list":["post-1521","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-presentations","tag-plastics","tag-pollution","tag-sustainability"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 -
