Novel Identification Technology for High-value Plastics Waste Stream (POLYMARK)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2014, Date de fin: 31 mars 2017,
The POLYMARK consortium represent the SME communities of Polymer Recyclers. The EU polymer recycling sector forms a vital part of the polymer sector and has an estimated annual turnover of €2,500 million generated by over 1,000 SMEs. However, our members have a major problem. Within the EU legislation exists (EC/282/2008) that states that plastic containers that have been used in a non-food applic ...

Development of a selective, green solvent-based recovery process for waste polystyrene and polycarbonate (POLY-SOLVE)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2011, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2014,
Expanded polystyrene is widely used as packaging for foodstuffs and for shipping. Several hundred thousand tonnes of polystyrene are sent unnecessarily to landfill every year in the UK and Europe, where it does not biodegrade but persists for hundreds of years. Meanwhile, oil-derived feedstocks are being consumed in the production of new polystyrene. Recycling systems for polystyrene are underdev ...

A Process to Engineer and Manufacture Medium to High Value 3D Products Using Mixed Polymer Recyclate (PRIME)
Date du début: 1 juil. 2010, Date de fin: 30 juin 2013,
"Polymer products have transformed society. Some of their many uses include construction, food preservation, healthcare, water distribution and sanitation. They are crucial in saving energy through their light weight and insulating properties. As a result the European polymer processing industry is of strategic importance to Europe. However, increasing feedstock prices seriously affect the competi ...
