Mana discusses waste valorization at FULLRECO4US conference
The FULLRECO4US conference functions as a discussion platform for industry participants and academia on holistic approaches to waste recycling and valorization. Ernes Cereku was invited to represent NG Group and Mana at the 2023 conference in Istanbul.

FULLRECO4US aims to serve as a discussion platform for waste recycling and valorization, fostering interdisciplinary and cross-border networks. These networks will collaborate to develop sustainable resource recovery methods, aiding in research funding applications and strengthening innovation in Europe and beyond. The project will include activities like workshops, conferences, training schools, and working groups, all focused on holistic waste recycling approaches, stakeholder engagement, and effective dissemination of results to create impactful strategies.
To pioneer waste valorization technologies, it is critical for Mana to stay close to academia and research facilities who are leading the way in the field. Mana was therefore excited to attend the conference, where more than 200 people from 35 countries joined discussions on the ciruclar economy. Topics included the establishment of a market for volatile fatty acid (VFA), biomass valorisation into biofuels, hybrid solutions between anaerobic digestion and gasification for hydrogen production, the relationship between energy demand and material demand, and many more. Ernes presented NG Group's initiatives to accelerate the transition to a decarbonized and circular economy, including the launch of Mana.
The Carbon Dioxide concentration was 360.3 ppm when I was born. Now it's 420 ppm. We must do whatever we can do decelerate this development.
