With Extended Producer Responsibility for Packaging (pEPR) underway, the transfer of funds to local authorities is on the horizon. For many, November will mark the real moment of arrival for the UK’s most ambitious packaging legislation so far. However, along with the transference of costs, pEPR brings a greater focus on recyclability and analysis of packaging materials – a shift which will also help to ease the burden for local authorities. The RAM offers a UK-wide standard for recyclability.

Improved prediction of PFAS partitioning with PPLFERs and QSPRs Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are chemicals of high concern and are undergoing hazard and risk assessment worldwide. Reliable physicochemical property (PCP) data are fundamental to assessments. However, experimental PCP data for PFAS are limited and property prediction tools such as quantitative structure-property relationships (QSPRs) therefore have poor predictive power for PFAS.
