Objectives

ELIOT aims to provide new innovative and green technologies for EoL of commonly used natural fibres and biobased resins with increased resource efficiency and fully align these biomaterials with the circular economy principles.

 

Description

The project will propose and develop innovative solutions for the EoL of the new generation of biocomposites by:

  1. Reviewing the current treatment technologies for conventional FRP composite waste.
  2. Evaluating their potential suitability to be applied to the biocomposite waste and selecting those treatment alternatives that appear as the most feasible.
  3. Tailoring the selected treatment technologies to the characteristics of biocomposites and testing them at laboratory scale.
  4. Demonstrating their technical feasibility and life-cycle sustainability under pre-industrial scale.
