Imagine a digital matchmaking service for industrial waste. Instead of throwing away complex materials like wind turbine blades, companies use this system to find others who can actually use them. It turns a messy pile of industrial data into a clear map for recycling and reusing materials across different industries.
Companies lose significant value because industrial data is not shared or reused, leading to a linear 'take-make-waste' model. This creates dependency on unstable primary resource markets and increases landfill waste for complex materials.
A data exchange platform with built-in tools for data fusion and semantic communication. It includes resilience tools to help companies withstand supply chain disruptions.
If you are a wind turbine manufacturer dealing with massive blade waste at end-of-life — this project developed a data exchange platform that enables the recycling and upcycling of composites. This reduces landfill costs and supports circular economy goals.
If you are a producer dealing with complex composite waste in circuitry — this project developed tools to unlock the value of material data. This allows you to transition toward sustainable-by-design materials with enhanced functionalities.
If you are a supplier dealing with carbon fiber-reinforced polymer scrap — this project developed a pipeline for industrial data fusion. This helps you find new industrial applications for your waste materials across different sectors.
Based on available project data, specific pricing or cost structures are not mentioned; the project focuses on the development of the platform and tools.
Yes, the project targets industries heavily reliant on composite materials and involves 7 industrial partners to showcase the feasibility of the platform across the value chain.
Based on available project data, there are no specific details regarding IP ownership or licensing terms provided in the summary.
The platform steers the product lifecycle toward circular standards implementation at both technological and regulatory levels to meet climate neutrality goals.
It uses semantic communication and ontology-driven patterns to interconnect different sectors and allow industrial data fusion.
The consortium is heavily weighted toward industrial application, with 7 industry partners (54% of the group) and 4 SMEs. This balance, combined with 5 universities and 1 research center across 7 countries, suggests the project is driven by commercial viability and real-world industrial constraints rather than purely academic research.
