The Interreg North-West Europe project SeRaMCo (Secondary Raw Material for Concrete Precast Products) focused on researching and promoting the use of secondary raw materials from construction and demolition waste (CDW).
The CLIC trans-disciplinary research project aimed to demonstrate that it is economically, socially and environmentally convenient to maintain and/or reuse cultural heritage and landscape.
Re-Match has a recycling process for synthetic turf, recovering up to 95% of the materials, which is accredited with the EU’s Environmental Technology Verification. Their patented technology separates the sand, backing, rubber and plastic fibre from used synthetic turf. These materials can then be sold or used in a wide variety of new products in different industries.
Fil&Fab has developed a technique to transform disused end-of-life fishing nets into plastic pellets, which are then used to create a series of new plastic products.
Alchemia-nova, the Institute for innovative phytochemistry and closed loop processes, has colloborated with vertECO, GRETA and LooPi to develop three types of green walls, which treat wastewater to service water standards and create plant biomass and fertiliser.
This COSME project aimed to implement a capacity building and support scheme for SMEs in the tourism sector that will lead them to reach different levels of circular economy innovations within a transition system.
The EU-financed LEVEL-UP project offered circularity protocols and strategies for extending the remaining useful life of large industrial equipment and assets that can no longer remain competitive in the Industry 4.0 paradigm.
The Life-REPOLYUSE project was about REcovery of POLYurethane for reUSE in eco-efficient materials. It tried to solve the environmental challenge of the scarcity of resources and waste management in order to mitigate the effects of climate change. It addressed the problem of polyurethane plastic waste using innovative techniques.
