Reclamation of Gallium, Indium and Rare-Earth Elements from Photovoltaics, Solid-State Lighting and Electronics Waste (RECLAIM)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2013, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2016,
Prospective global supply and demand for gallium, indium and other key metals show an increasing discrepancy, amongst others due to the explosive growth of green technologies such as photovoltaics (PV) and solid-state lighting (SSL). While their primary production is highly controlled by a few countries, recycling systems to reclaim these materials from discarded products are not yet in place. Thi ...

Automated Sorting and Recycling of Waste Lamps (ILLUMINATE)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2013, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2016,
In order to facilitate lamp waste treatment, maximize the recovery rates and improve working environment, an automated, sealed sorting unit will be required. The concept of the ILLUMINATE proposal is to develop automated systems that are able to effectively sort bulbs into different classes and remove foreign objects. This is essential for an economically viable process. The unit will be based on ...

Rare Earth Magnet Recovery for Environmental and Resource Protection (REMANENCE)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2013, Date de fin: 30 juin 2016,
"The REMANENCE concept is to develop new and innovative processes for the recovery and recycling of rare earth (RE) containing neodymium iron boron magnets (NdFeB) from a range of waste electronic and electrical equipment (WEEE). Advanced sensing and mechanical separation techniques combined with innovative processes based on hydrogen decrepitation will recover the rare earth magnets in the WEEE. ...

Green Electronics – Sustainable Product Manufacturing (GREENELEC)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2012, Date de fin: 1 déc. 2014,
The main goal of GreenElec is to achieve more efficient use of resources by designing and manufacturing electronics that enable more effective recycling. A large fraction of critical materials is used in electronics. Recovery is at present limited: most of the materials are downgraded or completely lost. Effective recovery of materials implies that end-of-life separation and treatment must already ...
