Ceramic Sustainable Urban Drainage System (LIFE CERSUDS)

Start date: Oct 1, 2016, End date: Sep 30, 2019,

Background Combined sewers are those that, in addition to industrial and domestic wastewater, also collect surface runoff. Widely used throughout Europe, they pose the risk of combined sewer overflow spills, incidents that challenge the capacity of Member States to meet the water quality goals of EU legislation, including the Urban Waste Water Treatment D ...

PRODUCTION OF QUARTZ POWDERS WITH REDUCED CRYSTALLINE SILICA TOXICITY (SILIFE)

Start date: Sep 7, 2015, End date: Sep 27, 2019,

Background Prolonged inhalation of crystalline silica particles can cause lung inflammation and the lung disease known as silicosis. Total European usage of crystalline silica (i.e. quartz and crystobalite) is measured in thousands of millions of tonnes per annum. It is used in many manufacturing industries such as the cement, ceramics, steel, glass, mine ...

Industrial implementation of processes to render RCS safer in manufacturing processes (SILICOAT)

Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2014,

"In 1997, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classified Respirable Crystalline Silica (RCS) in the form of quartz or crystobalite from occupational sources as carcinogenic for humans (category 1). Crystalline silica is an essential raw material for the production of virtually all the goods of everyday life. As a consequence, there can be significant amounts of RCS in the enviro ...
