Original ennobling recycling process of GFRP waste to re-produce GFRP replacing energy-intensive construction elements (LIFE Enrich a poor waste)
Date du début: 1 juil. 2013, Date de fin: 30 juin 2016,
Background
Products made from glass-fibre reinforced plastics (GFRP) are a class of composite building material consisting of a glass-fibre reinforcement encased in a polymer. The solid waste generated by the GFRP manufacturing process consists of cured polymer resin and scrap fibre reinforcement material (glass). Recycling this waste is problematic and a ...

Minimize the water footprint of the impactful H2O waste in the cutting cycle of natural stone blocks (LIFE of water is man life)
Date du début: 1 juil. 2013, Date de fin: 30 juin 2016,
Background
Quarries for the extraction of marble and natural stone are widespread across Europe. But the extraction and cutting of stone are still carried out by traditional methods, which involve the slow removal of material using large cutting disks and vast quantities of water. A considerable amount of sludge is also produced and disposed of as waste i ...

Zero Emission Firing strategies for ceramic tiles by oxy-fuel burners and CO2 sequestration with recycling of byproducts (LIFE ZEF-tile)
Date du début: 1 juil. 2013, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2015,
Background
Carbon dioxide emissions and the low energy efficiency of current firing techniques for ceramic tiles have a negative impact on the environment. A recent study conducted in Sassuolo, the largest ceramic tiles manufacturing area in Europe, accounting for more than 90% of Italian production, showed that gas emissions are a major problem, especial ...
