SUMMARY:SPE Plastics Processing Conference: The Virtual Edition
DESCRIPTION:The SPE Lehigh Valley Section is organizing technical sessions for the inaugural SPE Plastics Processing and Compounding Conference 2021. Conor Carlin\, SPE VP Sustainability\, will deliver a keynote address about the nexus of plastics and sustainability. \nThough many in the plastics industry are familiar with the overwhelming benefits that polymeric materials provide\, the public has become highly skeptical. And rightly so – when you see clogged rivers and dead fish\, what are people supposed to think? Let’s rethink plastics among ourselves for a moment\, at least in terms of how the public views it. By acknowledging the paradoxical nature of plastics’ efficiency\, we can perhaps take a more holistic approach to design that utilizes the full value of a material’s properties while considering end-of-life implications. The nuances and complexities of modern plastics ensure that there are no easy answers. And though we have to make difficult choices\, we cannot let the perfect be the enemy of the good. \nJoin us for 2 days of excellent programming. You can view the entire technical program here.

SUMMARY:Plastic Bag Recycling: The Obaggo Journey
DESCRIPTION:  \nDave New\, founder of Obaggo Recycling\, will tell the story of his journey to bring a novel plastic bag recycling solution to the mass market. He will discuss the genesis of the idea\, the trials and tribulations of prototype development\, and the epic search for project support and funding. A fundamentally entrepreneurial story\, Dave will talk about the world of start-up accelerators\, b-plan competitions\, and how he navigated a vast landscape of stakeholders\, cheerleaders\, and naysayers. \nDave has an MBA in Operations Management from Cornell University\, and a BS in Computer Science from the University of Vermont.  He has 35 years of experience in logistics systems design and implementation\, and supply chain consulting\, to companies like Mastercraft Boats\, Thermofisher Scientific\, Zippo\, and dozens more.  A life-long environmentalist and recycler\, Dave was frustrated by his own forgetfulness and inability to properly recycle his plastic bags at the retail store bins. The idea of two separate supply chains for recycling\, an inconvenient one for plastic bags\, and a convenient (curbside) one for everything else\, just didn’t seem optimal.  Obaggo was born. When not transforming polyethylene bags into pucks\, he’s often outdoors\, climbing a mountain or hiking a trail.
