beworm Information

Beworm is a biotechnological start-up facing the challenge of plastic pollution. Our goal is to develop a biotic recycling process that decomposes polyethylene, a commonly used material, into its building blocks. With the help of selected microorganisms and enzymes, the long hydrocarbon chain of polymers can be split up into shorter fragments, which can be reused as raw materials. This will transform a linear process into a circular process.
