Wojciech Lipi艅ski joins AI-enhanced solvent-based recycling project to boost circular plastics research
April 22, 2026
The Polymer Performance Materials group welcomes Dr. Wojciech Lipi艅ski as a new postdoctoral researcher working on an AI-enhanced solvent-based recycling process for complex plastic waste.
Working with project lead 沤eljko Tomovi膰 and startup partner , the goal is to design and validate an adaptive recycling process capable of recovering high-quality polymers from challenging streams such as multilayer packaging and e-waste. By combining polymer science with machine-learning tools, the team aims to improve solvent selection, optimize process parameters, and accelerate the transition toward a more circular plastics economy in the Netherlands and Europe.
