2 | 2015 Recycling Innovators Forum launches


Hungry entrepreneurs with innovative ideas for improving the e-scrap recycling industry will receive a helping hand this fall.


The 2015 Recycling Innovators Forum is now accepting entries from people and organizations with actionable ideas to advance recycling. The deadline for submissions is June 1, 2015.


This fall's Forum marks the third year for the recycling innovation event.


Up to 10 finalists will receive travel and lodging scholarships to attend the Resource Recycling Conference, to be held Sept. 28-30 in Indianapolis, Indiana. The finalists will present their ideas to a panel of judges and an audience of industry decision-makers and investors at the Recycling Innovators Forum, held on Sept. 28 in conjunction with the conference. Judges will select a winner to receive a $20,000 prize to help move their innovation forward.


Resource Recycling magazine, sister publication to E-Scrap News, will also feature the winning ideas in online and print stories.


In 2014, a finalist was Fudente Production Partnership, which aimed the tackle the challenging CRT market by using it as a fluxing agent at copper smelters, feeding an immediate demand for the item as a flux without undercutting higher-end lead smelters.


The third annual Recycling Innovators Forum is made possible thanks to major sponsorships from the American Chemistry Council's Plastics Division, Waste Management and Resource Recycling, Inc., with additional support from the Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries and the Association of Postconsumer Plastic Recyclers.
