Objective The main goal of the IRCOW project is to develop and validate upgraded technological solutions to achieve an efficient material recovery from C&D waste by considering a life cycle perspective.The innovation beyond the state-of-the-art will focus on:1. Developing new approaches and models aimed at raising the rate of reuse components.2. Developing and adapting recycling technology with the overall purpose of improving the quality of C&D recycled materials: recycled aggregates, wood, plastics, granular gypsum from mixed streams and emerging waste materials.3. Developing high grade construction products by using C&D recycled materials; not only those related to the stony fraction, but also the other fractions where there is currently a strong knowledge gap.4. Demonstrating results under real conditions with the aim of providing potential stakeholders with information on the global performance.5. Setting the basis for specific European policies on C&D waste aiming at fostering a high and efficient level of material recovery.To accomplish IRCOW objectives, the project is structured into 7 work packages and 5 in-field case studies. Three of the work packages focus on the development of new management schemes, separation technologies and products that are needed to significantly increase the reuse and recycling rates of C&W waste in the EU. The outcomes of the three technological work packages will be assessed and validated from an economic, environmental and toxicological point of view, by using both Life Cycle Assessment tools and case studies throughout Europe.The involvement of industrial stakeholders (both industrial companies and associations from the construction and recycling sector), and national and regional authorities ensures the relevance and applicability of the project results. Moreover, the stakeholders will be involved in deriving recommendations for changes in policies aiming to remove obsta Fields of science engineering and technologyenvironmental engineeringwaste managementwaste treatment processesrecyclingengineering and technologychemical engineeringseparation technologiesagricultural sciencesagriculture, forestry, and fisheriesforestry Programme(s) FP7-ENVIRONMENT - Specific Programme "Cooperation": Environment (including Climate Change) Topic(s) ENV.2010.3.1.3-1 - Innovative technologies and eco design recommendations for reuse and recycling of Construction and Demolition (C&D) waste, with a special focus on technologies for onsite solutions Call for proposal FP7-ENV-2010 See other projects for this call Funding Scheme CP-FP - Small or medium-scale focused research project Coordinator FUNDACION TECNALIA RESEARCH & INNOVATION EU contribution € 649 484,00 Address PARQUE CIENTIFICO Y TECNOLOGICO DE GIPUZKOA, PASEO MIKELETEGI 2 20009 DONOSTIA-SAN SEBASTIAN (GIPUZKOA) Spain See on map Region Noreste País Vasco Gipuzkoa Activity type Research Organisations Administrative Contact Iñigo Vegas (Dr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data Participants (12) Sort alphabetically Sort by EU Contribution Expand all Collapse all VLAAMSE INSTELLING VOOR TECHNOLOGISCH ONDERZOEK N.V.
