The UK chemical sector has an annual turnover of over £32 billion with 99,000 direct jobs in 2016. The Centre's vision is to transform the UK's chemical industry into a fossil-independent, climate-positive and environmentally-friendly circular chemical economy. The overall novelty of our programme is the development of a sector-wide solution with deep circularity interventions, by creating a circular resources flow of olefin-the raw material for 70% of all organic chemical production. Our whole system approach will include key sectors of production, transportation/distribution, refinery/downstream, use and waste recycling, to reduce fossil reliance and improve productivity and sustainability of the whole process industry.The Centre will generate a cross-disciplinary platform combining synergistic innovations in science/engineering with social scientists to comprehend the whole system industrial symbiosis and market/policy/incentive design. The Core Research Programme is organised around three interconnected themes: (1) Key technologies to enable olefin production from alternative/recycling wastes streams and design more reusable chemicals via advanced catalytic processes; (2) Process integration, whole system analysis and value chain evaluation, and (3) Policy, society and finance. Through detailed process modelling, economic analysis and environmental assessment of technology solutions along the supply chain, accelerated understanding, opportunities and optimum solutions to achieve circularity of olefin-derived resources flow will be attained. These activities are embedded with stakeholders involving all affected groups, including local SMEs and downstream users, and will provide evidence and data for policymakers.The Centre will engage with users through social studies and organised events, and exploit consumer/business behavioural change related to chemical systems enabling a sustainable community and society with innovative technologies.

英国化学行业的年营业额超过320亿英镑，2016年直接就业99，000人。该中心的愿景是将英国的化学工业转变为化石独立，气候积极和环境友好的循环化学经济。我们项目的整体新奇在于通过创造烯烃的循环资源流（烯烃是所有有机化学品生产的70%的原材料），开发具有深度循环干预的全行业解决方案。我们的全系统方法将包括生产、运输/分销、炼油/下游、使用和废物回收等关键部门，以减少对化石燃料的依赖，提高整个过程工业的生产力和可持续性。该中心将形成一个跨学科的平台，将科学/工程的协同创新与社会科学家相结合，以理解整个系统的工业共生和市场/政策/激励设计。核心研究计划围绕三个相互关联的主题组织：（1）通过先进的催化工艺，使替代/回收废物流中的烯烃生产和设计更多可重复使用的化学品的关键技术;（2）工艺集成，整个系统分析和价值链评估;以及（3）政策，社会和金融。通过详细的工艺建模、经济分析和技术解决方案的环境评估，沿着供应链，将加速理解、机会和最佳解决方案，以实现烯烃衍生资源流的循环。该中心将通过社会研究和有组织的活动与用户互动，并利用与化学品系统相关的消费者/企业行为变化，通过创新技术实现可持续发展的社区和社会。
