SC59D workshop at Swissatest - Microplastics in washing machine wastewater
As part of IEC-SC 59D, Swissatest hosted a two-day workshop on the topic of microplastics in washing machines this week. The direct laboratory insight and the practical demonstration in the washing laboratory made the complex topic tangible and promoted an intensive professional exchange.
Highlights:
- Live demonstrations in the laboratory - simulation with loading and a reference filter
- Active discussions - practical examples and open question rounds led to valuable input
- SEFAR factory tour - insights into the production of filter fabrics
- Many thanks to all participants for the constructive atmosphere, to Gundula Czyzewski for her professional guidance and to SEFAR for the interesting factory tour.
The working group with participants from the washing machine industry will continue to work on the topic and is looking forward to the next results and future workshops.
