Tackling international airline catering waste by demonstrating integral and safe recollection, separation & treatment (LIFE Zero Cabin Waste)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2016, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2019,
Background
At global level, air passengers generate 0.82 kg to 2.5 kg of waste, depending on distance and flight class, with an average of 1.43 kg (IATA, 2014). According to the Airports Council International (ACI), there were about 6.3 billion plane passengers worldwide in 2013, which equates to an annual estimate of 9 billion kg of waste.
To date, mos ...

Saponification pre-treatment and biosensors based control system for slaughterhouse waste anaerobic digestion improvement (ADAW)
Date du début: 1 mars 2013, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2015,
...tment of non-risk animal waste. Slaughterhouse waste is characterised by high content of lipids, which difficult other treatment strategies, like anaerobic digestion (AD). Current AD technologies for biogas production are still suffering from technical and economical obstacles, which are limiting its use as an energy source. Therefore, EU slaughterhouse holders need new solutions with improved cos ...
