Regenerative Energie
The project Tex2Mat is a cooperation of several manufacturing companies and uni-versities. In the course of the project two waste streams from textile companies were analysed, one was textiles made from a mixture of PET (polyethylene terephthalate) and cotton and the second one was a mixture of polyamides (PA). In this subproject regarding the PA the following members were selected in a way that all processing steps were represented along the complete value chain. The main objective the project was to analyse the whole value chain from the loom to collecting the waste, the recycling process and the production of the original product or other technical demanding products.
The European Union’s legal requirements regarding circular economy set a big challenge on the Austrian textile industry, which is dominated by SMEs. It is interesting to notice that 'textile industry†does not necessarily mean clothes for hu-mans but there are also manufacturers who produce technical textiles like sieves and felts for the paper and cement industry. These textiles have a complex structure and are made from various polymers. In order to avoid landfill and high costs for disposal recycling becomes a must. The project Tex2Mat aimed at connecting innovative companies and universities in order to develop recycling strategies for specially selected use cases (monofilaments and injection moulded parts for technical applications). In three case studies the partners developed a sound procedure for waste collection and recycling to ensure a constant quality and a reliable supply of recycling material. The Austrian industry profits from that project with knowhow for securing Austria as a pro-duction location, reducing the costs of raw material as well as CO2 emission.

Die innerstaatliche Umsetzung des Pariser Klimaschutzübereinkommens
- ein Rechtsvergleich

Like all public international law treaties, the Paris Climate Accords rely on national law for their implementation. The success of the agreement therefore depends, to a large extent, on the stepstaken or not taken by national governments and legislators as well as on the instruments and mechanisms chosen for this task. Against this background, the present article compares different approaches to the implementation of the Paris Agreement, using court decisions as a means to assess their (legal) effectiveness.
