Plastic Recuperation and Valorisation Fit for Use
The PROFIT project will reverse engineer products with recycled content and define and produce feedstock from recycling which are fit for use.
Starting from applications and plastic products the project will define properties and specifications for feedstock. Using these specifications, novel separation techniques will be developed for 2 different complex and mixed plastic waste streams. This approach throughout the value chain and through reverse engineering allows a cost effective and efficient process. Water management and use of chemicals will be optimized through water purification techniques. Using Life cycle analysis, these any claims on efficiency and sustainability will be continuously monitored.
