• Chemical Recycling for Circular Flows of Plastic Waste

  The LidlFutureInitiatives-funded project ”Chemical Recycling for Circular Flows of Plastic Waste” (Kemisk återvinning för cirkulära strömmar av plastavfall KÅCSP) aims to evaluate the potential of the chemical recycling of plastics as a commercial alternative from the perspective of a circular economy model. The project results will help relevant stakeholders and decisions makers in identifying and managing options for higher rates of material recycling, resource efficiency and circularity.

• User-driven Energy-Matching & Business Prospection Tool for Industrial Excess Heat/Cold Reduction, Recovery and Redistribution EMB3Rs

  16 companies and institutes from across Europe have joined forces as part of the EU-funded project EMB3Rs to add value to waste heat and help make better use of renewable energy sources. A novel tool, to be developed by August 2022, will allow energy-intensive industries and other excess heat and cold sources to explore ways of reusing their excess thermal energy. This will improve their energy performance and contribute to a healthier future for everyone.

• Urban Circularity Assessment Framework

  The UCAF project aims to provide an adaptable city level circularity assessment framework that will assist cities in transitioning to a circular economy. This framework will allow cities to measure their level and potential for circularity, and can be tailored to different decision-making contexts and sector specific demands.
