  • Haflinger- Markt Weyer
    HAFLINGER- MARKT WEYER Samstag, 1. Oktober 2011 1 Liebe Beschicker und Besucher des dies- jährigen Haflingermarktes! Einer der traditionellsten Pferdemärkte in Oberösterreich findet zur Freude aller Züchter und Pferdeliebhaber am 1.Okto- ber wieder statt! Ich bedanke mich ganz besonders bei den Verantwortlichen für die mühevolle Vor- bereitung und Durchführung! Durch das gute Zusammenwirken von Gemeinde, Zuchtverband und Pferdehof Krenn/Edtbauer erleben wir sicher auch heuer wieder eine tolle Präsentation der beliebten Pferde, verschiedener Rassen! Auch den Züchtern, Besitzern und allen Mitwirkenden sei herzlich ge- dankt! Erst seit den von Pferd Austria in Auftrag gegebenen und nun vorlie- genden Studien über den sozialen, wirtschaftlichen und touristischen Wert der Pferdewirtschaft in Österreich ist die Bedeutung des Pferdes ins richtige Licht gerückt worden! Nun ist auch der Öffentlichkeit be- wusst, wie wichtig das Pferd heute vorwiegend im Freizeitbereich und dem Sport ist! Als Obmann der österreichischen Pferdezucht freue ich mich auf den Haflingermarkt und wünsche allen Beschickern und den Besuchern sehr viel Freude! Herzliche Grüße KommR Wolfgang Schürrer 2 Liebe Besucherinnen, liebe Besucher des Haflingermarktes in Weyer! Der Reiterhof Krenn/Edtbauer ist mit seinen Anlagen der ideale Austragungs- ort des Weyrer Haflingermarktes. Bereits zum vierten Mal wird dieser traditionelle Markt am neu adaptierten Gelände beim Edtbauer abgehalten. Eine lange Tradition verbindet diesen Erbhof mit dem Haflinger und die Familie Krenn ermöglicht vielen Pferdesportlern das ganze Jahr über die Ausübung ihres Hobbys. Die Bedeutung des Haflingers hat in den letzten Jahren laut einigen Studien als Sport- und Freizeitpartner wieder stark zugenommen. Die Aktion JUGEND UND PFERD führt Kinder und Jugendliche an den verantwortungsvollen Umgang, die Haltung und die Zucht von Pfer- den heran.

The breakdown of this aid is as follows: • 165.60 million ECUs for regions whose develop­ ment is lagging behind (Objective 1), •101 million ECUs for regions undergoing industrial conversion (Objective 2), and •411 million ECUs for vulnerable rural areas (Objective 5b). To grant this aid, the European Commission has given its approval to a series of development programmes submitted by Austria. This leaflet summarises these programmes, (Single Programming Documents - SPDs) and gives the Areas eligible under Objective 1 Areas eligible under Objective 2 addresses of the authorities in Austria responsible for Areas eligible under Objective 5b implementing them. Areas partially eligible under Objective 5b The SPDs describes the financing conditions and can be obtained by applying to these authorities. α Eligible areas The Burgenland ¡s ¡n Eastern Austria and Burgenland borders on the Slovak Republic, Hungary and Slovenia.

  • Recycling of Polymer-Based Multilayer Packaging: a Review
    recycling Review Recycling of Polymer-Based Multilayer Packaging: A Review Katharina Kaiser 1,2,*, Markus Schmid 1,2 ID and Martin Schlummer 2 ID 1 Technical University of Munich, TUM School of Life Sciences Weihenstephan, Weihenstephaner Steig 22, 85354 Freising, Germany; [email protected] 2 Fraunhofer Institute for Process Engineering and Packaging IVV, Giggenhauser Strasse 35, 85354 Freising, Germany; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +49-8161-491-466 Received: 27 October 2017; Accepted: 19 December 2017; Published: 22 December 2017 Abstract: Polymer-based multilayer packaging materials are commonly used in order to combine the respective performance of different polymers. By this approach, the tailored functionality of packaging concepts is created to sufficiently protect sensitive food products and thus obtain extended shelf life. However, because of their poor recyclability, most multilayers are usually incinerated or landfilled, counteracting the efforts towards a circular economy and crude oil independency. This review depicts the current state of the European multilayer packaging market and sketches the current end-of-life situation of postconsumer multilayer packaging waste in Germany. In the main section, a general overview of the state of research about material recycling of different multilayer packaging systems is provided. It is divided into two subsections, whereby one describes methods to achieve a separation of the different components, either by delamination or the selective dissolution–reprecipitation technique, and the other describes methods to achieve recycling by compatibilization of nonmiscible polymer types. While compatibilization methods and the technique of dissolution–reprecipitation are already extensively studied, the delamination of packaging has not been investigated systematically.
