When aiming to establish new #recycling and #recovery approaches, you will inevitably face various challenges and obstacles mainly related to the lack of understanding and acceptance by politics, market participants and also citizens, if you don't go public and address these challenges early enough. In EU Project FlashPhos , we have made contact with relevant stakeholders from day one, culminating now in a series of #workshops and #seminars, offering industry, authorities and the public a platform to exchange about markets, politics and impacts of recycling. The first one of these events will take place at Milan, Italy, and online, on October 15th 2024. Save the date, the invitation with more details will follow soon! The event is co-organised by FlashPhos main industrial partner Italmatch Chemicals and Politecnico di Milano from our sister EU-Project PHOSTER | ERA-MIN 3. We will learn about the progress of FlashPhos after 3 years and the outcomes of Phoster at the end of the project, and discuss about the new possibilities #circulareconomy offers to the #phosphorus market as well as what has to be done to set this energy free. I'm convinced that not only both projects are really interesting by themselves, but that the topics we chose affect everybody in the recycling business. So no matter what your métier is, stay tuned for the official invitation and agenda here on LinkedIn! If you don't have the chance to come to Milan, you'll be very much welcome online! #h2020 #eramin3 #sustainability #sewagesludge #phosphorusrecovery #resourceefficiency #climatefriendly

[ #France2030 ] Baikowski® celebrates France 2030 win for Innovative Low-Carbon Alumina Project (ABC project)! 🏆 We are thrilled to announce that Baikowski®'s ABC (Alumine Bas Carbone) project has been selected as a winner of the France 2030 call for projects! 🌱 This prestigious recognition goes to our collaborative effort with ECM Technologies - Industrial Furnaces, Saint-Gobain and Institut Charles Gerhardt Montpellier (ICGM Montpellier) to develop a revolutionary low-carbon alumina powder manufacturing process. The ABC project directly addresses the industry's decarbonization goals by creating a new, fully electrified process that can significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 50% to 70%! 🌍 Moreover, this innovation is crucial for the production of oxide-oxide composites (Ox/Ox CMC) – lightweight and high-strength materials critical for the energy transition. This local production approach strengthens French industry's competitiveness on a global scale and caters to the growing demand for sustainable materials. 🌟 At Baikowski®, we believe that innovation and sustainability are inseparable. Winning the France 2030 call for projects reaffirms our commitment to driving positive change in the industry. We are immensely proud of our dedicated teams and grateful for the support of public authorities in realizing our vision for a carbon-free future. 🌟Together with our partners, we look forward to capitalizing on these opportunities and contributing to a greener future! #Decarbonization #Innovation #Sustainability #CMC #CarbonFreeIndustry

💎 HYPER Project Consortium gathered at the SINTEF office in Brussels for an inspiring and productive meeting! ✨ Highlights included several presentations, where we discussed our progress, upcoming milestones, and explored opportunities for the business development of the project’s results. 🎯 A fascinating session focused on the Historical Belinka Process for H₂O₂ Production - HYPER project will contribute to making a tangible difference in the future of these technologies by providing a local and sustainable alternative. We look forward to the next steps in our journey toward innovation! 💡 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘀: SINTEF, CONDIAS GmbH, AristEng Sarl, HELIOS RESINS, Kemijski inštitut - National Institute of Chemistry, Process Design Center, ETA Florence Renewable Energies, INERIS, Jozef Stefan Institute, ANDRITZ, Eilenburger Elektrolyse- und Umwelttechnik GmbH, INOTEX, Processes4Planet Partnership #greenchemistry #electrified #europeancommission #circulareconomy #safe #costefficiency #europe #future #technology #chemistry #research #design #engineers #project #innovation #sustainability #coatingsindustry

The #HorizonEU #WaterProofProject was concisely explained by the gorgous Pegah Shakeri, PhD in her talk at #2024CCU where she, besides others, elaborated on the electrodes used for CO2-conversion in WaterProof's innovative electrochemical process. You can still find her at the booth by Coatema Coating Machinery GmbH at the end of day two of the CO2-based fuels and chemicals conference! WaterProof aims at closing the waste(water) carbon loop by creating a novel biorefinery concept converting CO2 emissions from urban waste treatment facilities into valuable green consumer-products. The objective is a technology resulting in a GHG reduction based on CO2 utilization, replacement of fossil feedstock and industrial electrification.
