GreenChemForCE brings together universities and companies from the Czech Republic, Austria, Hungary, and Slovenia to make chemical production in Central Europe:
cleaner,
more efficient,
more sustainable,
and better accepted by the public.
By combining industrial know-how with academic research, the project develops real, practical solutions that companies can implement.
Three main focus areas
The project works on:
Sustainable plastics – improving production, recycling, and circular use.
CO₂ management – reducing emissions and finding ways to reuse CO₂ as a valuable resource.
Greener production of fine chemicals – developing processes that create less waste and use safer materials.
Why does this matter?
Europe aims to reach climate neutrality by 2050.
For the chemical industry, this means using less fossil fuel, cutting emissions, and adopting circular models.
GreenChemForCE helps companies start this transformation — moving from the old “take–make–dispose” system to one where materials circulate and CO₂ becomes a usable raw material.
Looking ahead
To stay competitive and sustainable, the chemical industry will increasingly rely on:
energy-efficient technologies,
renewable energy,
CO₂ capture and reuse,
recycling of raw materials,
and innovative green chemistry solutions.
GreenChemForCE is laying the foundation for this shift, supporting a cleaner and more resilient chemical sector in Central Europe.
