"FGVA EC0 ECSI 2024" FGVA EC0 VALUATION AND CIRCULARITY OF RESOURCES (CIRCULAR ECONOMY AND INDUSTRIAL SYMBIOSIS) DESCRIPTION The Circular Economy (CE) is one of the lines of research that the Technological Institute has aimed at helping companies (and ultimately, society) to take advantage of resources and reduce the amount of waste to be managed. On the one hand, Industrial Symbiosis tools are used and/or to assess the sustainability of products and on the other hand, processes that improve performance in obtaining raw materials from waste flows of companies in the metalworking and furniture sectors are studied. wood packaging and related. OBJECTIVES The general objectives of the project are the following: - Improvement of the functionalities and usability of the PASSOS tool to assess the sustainability of electronic products through the analysis of materials inventory and the readjustment of indices that measure sustainability characteristics, incorporating feedback from companies. - Include statistics on the use of the tool to have indicators of its use. - Evaluation of alternatives for the recycling of automotive catalysts - Identification of waste with critical metals with recovery potential - Development of demonstration proposals for the recycling of high added value waste - Improvement of equipment for treatment and recycling of high added value waste - Promote the participation of the center and companies in national, European and international projects.
