Project evolution
The project implemented innovation actions aimed at enhancing the profitability of composite (Carbon Fiber and Glass Fiber) recycling and reuse in value-added products.
- The project is based on three macro use-cases, further detailed in eight demonstrators:
Use-case 1: Mechanical recycling of short GFRP and re-use in added-value customized applications, as furniture, sport and creative products.Use-case 2: Thermal recycling of long fibers (glass and carbon) and re-use in high-tech, high-resistance applications. The input product is EoL wind turbine and aerospace components. The re-use of composites in automotive (aesthetical and structural components) is demonstrated by applying controlled pyrolysis and custom remanufacturing.
Use-case 3: Inspection, repair and remanufacturing for EoL CFRP products in high-tech applications. Adaptive design and manufacturing criteria is implemented to allow for a complete circular economy demonstration in the automotive sector.
Project preparatory phase:
- Selection of the Italian players suitable for a Pilot Case
- Co-writing of the Exploitation WP
Project implementation:
- Support Italian partners during the pilots
