High Shear Processing of Recycled Aluminium Scrap for Manufacturing High Performance Aluminium Alloys (Recycal)

Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

The EU wrought aluminium industry is based on the use of primary aluminium. Primary aluminium production is both energy and carbon intensive and EU production is rapidly declining. Secondary aluminium (post-consumer scrap) is either downgraded into low quality cast products, or exported.This scrap could be transformed into a low cost, low carbon feedstock for wrought product and high quality casti ...

Advanced Technologies for the Production of Cement and Clean Aggregates from Construction and Demolition Waste (C2CA)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Apr 30, 2015,

"The recycling of end-of-life concrete into new concrete is one of the most interesting options for reducing worldwide natural resources use and emissions associated with the building materials sector. The production of the cement used in concrete, for example, is responsible for at least 5% of worldwide CO2 emissions. On-site reuse of clean silica aggregate from old concrete saves natural resourc ...

Trattamento e Valorizzazione dei Reflui dellindustria lattiero - Casearia (Trattamento e Valorizzazione dei reflui dell’Industria Lattiero - Casearia)

Un aspetto che viene spesso sottovalutato quando si parla di innovazione tecnologica nel comparto agroalimentare è quello della destinazione finale degli scarti e dei reflui di lavorazione. Il problema non è però né trascurabile, né tanto meno di facile e immediata soluzione. Se si esclude infatti lo smaltimento incontrollato nellambiente (pratica diffusa in passato, e in qualche modo giustificabi ...
