Join us on an information packed webinar on ways to improve efficiency and sustainability in aluminum beverage can recycling. This project is the culmination of a 2-year project, funded by the Arconic Foundation and in partnership with RTI International.
 
Aluminum UBCs (Used Beverage Cans) have a high potential for direct recyclability. However, missorted materials and commodity degradation can result in significant inefficiencies, equipment downtime, & compromised product quality. This presentation reports:

•    The latest information on the losses/contamination of materials;
•    The cost of contamination in recycling of aluminum UBCs;
•    The creation of a roadmap for optimal UBC recycling;
•    How our findings can be used to advance the conversation about aluminum UBC best practices

CRI President Susan V. Collins will be speaking on this webinar alongside Keith Weitz, the Sustainability and Resource Management Director of RTI International.
