Samuel JacksonWe present our work to improve data accessibility and performance for data-intensive tasks within the fusion research community. Our primary goal is to develop services that facilitate efficient access for data-intensive applications while ensuring compliance with FAIR principles [1], as well as adoption of interoperable tools, methods and standards. The major outcome of our work is the successful creation and deployment of a data service for the MAST (Mega Ampere Spherical Tokamak) experiment [2], leading to substantial enhancements in data discoverability, accessibility, and overall data retrieval performance, particularly in scenarios involving large-scale data access. Our work follows the principles of Analysis-Ready, Cloud Optimised (ARCO) data [3] by using cloud optimised data formats for fusion data. Our system consists of a query-able metadata catalogue, complemented with an object storage system for publicly serving data from the MAST experiment. We will show how our solution integrates with the Pandata stack [4] to enable data analysis and processing at scales that would have previously been intractable, paving the way for data-intensive workflows running routinely with minimal pre-processing on the part of the researcher. By using a cloud-optimised file format such as zarr [5] we can enable interactive data analysis and visualisation while avoiding large data transfers. Our solution integrates with common python data analysis libraries for large, complex scientific data such as xarray [6] for complex data structures and dask [7] for parallel computation and lazily working with larger that memory datasets. The incorporation of these technologies is vital for advancing simulation, design, and enabling emerging technologies like machine learning and foundation models, all of which rely on efficient access to extensive repositories of high-quality data. Relying on the FAIR guiding principles for data stewardship not only enhances data findability, accessibility, and reusability, but also fosters international cooperation on the interoperability of data and tools, driving fusion research into new realms and ensuring its relevance in an era characterised by advanced technologies in data science.

Post consumer recycled (PCR) plastic is what most people think of when they think of recycled material. As its name suggests, it comes from recycling consumer waste such as plastic bottles that you&#;ve thrown in your household blue bin for collection. On the other hand, post industrial recycled plastic comes from industrial waste products, such as plastic off cuts during the manufacturing process.
Both these processes can help reduce the amount of plastic going to landfills, and by maximizing our use of recycled materials of all kinds, we can help lower our carbon footprint. Using recycled petroleum material is designed to reduce the need for new petroleum products to be processed, However, production of new petroleum material keeps going up year over year, so the jury is out on whether recycling petroleum materials can be the magic bullet! That&#;s why we believe that it&#;s important to have multiple irons in the fire and collaborate across our industry to make eco-friendly materials of all kinds more available - recyclable, renewable and compostable.
There are several challenges recyclers and manufacturers may face when using recycled material. The main issues faced by recyclers is sourcing, sorting, and cleaning. Sourcing good quality plastic material with few contaminants from recycle streams is incredibly important. Plastic needs to be sorted from other material types as well as from other plastic types. There are various methods used including manual/mechanical sorting, optical sorting, and flotation sorting, among others like chemical recycling.
Plastic manufacturers may fine issues with recycled material consistency. Even the smallest amount of undesired material, such as a flake of black plastic in a bed of clear flake, may cause undesired qualities in the finished product. It is because of this reason why there may be some small specks in PCR material or discolouration of the product. This is why we only get our PCR flake from vetted, high quality recyclers.
Our priority at good natured® is to use more renewable resources, less fossil fuel and no chemicals of concerns. We offer both compostable and recyclable material options and can incorporate PCR into a Bio-PET blend to let you deliver a renewable and recyclable one-two punch!
