Spend foundry sand valorisation in construction sector through the validation of high-performance applications (LIFE ECO-SANDFILL)
Start date: Jul 1, 2016, End date: Jun 30, 2019,
Background
There are around 3 000 active foundry operations in Europe that annually generate over 9 million tonnes of waste sand, with ferrous industries the major generators. Only 25% of this Spent Foundry Sand (SFS) is recycled for a few applications, mainly by the cement industry, but these sectors are unable to absorb the total amount of sand generate ...

Turning waste from steel industry into a valuable low cost feedstock for energy intensive industry (RESLAG)
Start date: Sep 1, 2015, End date: Feb 28, 2019,
The RESLAG project proposal is aligned with the challenges outlined in the call WASTE-1-2014: Moving towards a circular economy through industrial symbiosis. In 2010, the European steel industry generated, as waste, about 21.8 Mt of steel slag. The 76 % of the slag was recycled in applications such as aggregates for construction or road materials, but these sectors were unable to absorb the total ...

Sustainable Production of Industrial Recovered Energy using energy dissipative and storage technologies (SUSPIRE)
Start date: Oct 1, 2015, End date: Sep 30, 2018,
SusPIRE project assimilates in its conception the sustainable energy use challenge described in the European SETPLAN and in SPIRE road map. It addresses its efforts to energy intensive industries and within this segment market to energy recovery from residual heat streams. To achieve this goal a two clearly differentiated working areas will be key aspects of this project. Technology area will in ...

ACtuator COmponents made by alternative Metal Injection Moulding (ACCOMIM)
Start date: Dec 1, 2014, End date: May 31, 2016,
"The ACCOMIM project goal is to demonstrate that actuator components can be manufactured by less cost intensive and more sustainable Metal Injection Moulding (MIM) process. MIM allows producing complex parts at reduced manufacturing time than traditional components made by milling and turning. Manufacturing almost net to shape allows higher complexity in one production step. MIM technology is wide ...

Vacuum-assisted high pressure die castings with reduced porosity at low cost (SOUNDCAST)
Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Nov 30, 2015,
"The necessity of preserving resources and to reduce environmental pollution makes light weight concepts and recycling highly interesting for the transportation market, being light weight essential for newly developed electric and hybrid vehicles.At the present, the use of aluminium high pressure die castings for structural applications in the automotive industry is limited due the presence of por ...

Sustainable Dismantling and Recycling of Metallic Aerostructures (SENTRY)
Start date: Apr 1, 2014, End date: Sep 30, 2015,
"The SENTRY Project deals with the dismantling, recycling and environmental assessment of the End of Life (EoL) phase of “Demonstrator” panels, a subcomponent of “low weight metallic fuselage section” named B2, which has been manufactured within the Eco-Design for Airframe (EDA) activity in the Clean Sky programme. The SENTRY Project will assess the current end of life management practices, namely ...
