Circular Economy

Circular economy is more than just waste separation: we understand this megatopic as quite crucial to conserving resources such as water, energy and raw materials, and thus also to protecting the climate. Waste avoidance through eco-design, waste heat utilisation, energy-efficient production processes, alternative materials, biomass utilisation or aquaponics: the range of topics and the necessary technologies are diverse.

The ECOS team organises platforms for the exchange of experts, prepares studies on individual topics, initiates circular economy projects and supports companies in the direct placement and marketing of environmental technologies in Japan.
