Objectif The objective of SLIGHT GRANULATION project is to validate on the market an innovative production process, reducingboth the use of water in ceramic industrial processes and the energy consumption. The new process will address a specificphase of production chain (i.e. granulation), reducing by 40% the use of water and completely cutting off the energyconsumption in this phase.Before taking the final go to market decision, it will be necessary to carry out a wide and extensive market and feasibilitystudy aiming at setting up the main economic and technical drivers leading the subsequent market deployment phase. Whileinitial test have been already carried out through a pilot plant in small scale, the objective of the overall innovation programwill be to set up a wider piloting phase, involving industrial actors that may support Manfredini and Schianchi in fine tuningoperational parameters of Slight Granulation process. The objectives of the feasibility study will aim at obtaining directfeedback from potential users, before starting the full industrialization of the process. The low level objectives will be:- to lead at least 15 interviews with potential customers- to define a panel of at least 4 users to be involved in innovation phase- to clearly define functioning parameters of Slight Granulation process- to carry out a (preliminary) P&L for Slight Granulation plant business line;- to monitor IPR issues- to define technical road map for innovation phaseThe results of the validation study will be enclosed in a Business and innovation plan, that will be submitted as maindeliverable at the end of the project Champ scientifique engineering and technologymaterials engineeringceramics Programme(s) H2020-EU.3.5. - SOCIETAL CHALLENGES - Climate action, Environment, Resource Efficiency and Raw Materials Main Programme H2020-EU.2.3.1. - Mainstreaming SME support, especially through a dedicated instrument Thème(s) SC5-20-2014-1 - Boosting the potential of small businesses for eco-innovation and a sustainable supply of raw materials Appel à propositions H2020-SMEInst-2014-2015 Voir d’autres projets de cet appel Sous appel H2020-SMEINST-1-2014 Régime de financement SME-1 - SME instrument phase 1 Coordinateur MANFREDINI & SCHIANCHI SRL Contribution nette de l'UE € 50 000,00 Adresse VIA DALLARI 2 41049 SASSUOLO Italie Voir sur la carte PME L’entreprise s’est définie comme une PME (petite et moyenne entreprise) au moment de la signature de la convention de subvention.
