TOPIC: Methods to remove hazardous substances and contaminants from secondary raw materials
Topic identifier: CE-SC5-01-2018
Publication date: 27 October 2017
Focus area: Connecting economic and environmental gains - the Circular Economy (CE)
Types of action: RIA Research and Innovation action
Deadline Model:
Opening date: two-stage
Deadline: 07 November 2017
2nd stage Deadline: 27 February 2018 17:00:00
04 September 2018 17:00:00
Time Zone: (Brussels time)
Specific Challenge:
Reuse and recycling of many secondary raw materials continues to be low in the EU, while landfill and incineration rates remain high. The uptake and recyclability of secondary raw materials can be hampered by the presence of undesirable contaminants, additives and even substances of concern. The removal of such undesirable substances could improve the purity of the resulting secondary raw material and mitigate potential health and environmental concerns. In addition, the removal of these substances could increase the range of potential recycling and reuse applications for the secondary raw materials.
CALL: GREENING THE ECONOMY IN LINE WITH THE SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS (SDGS)
Call identifier: H2020-SC5-2018-2019-2020
Publication date: 27 October 2017
Call summary and aims:
This call focuses on moving to a greener, more resource efficient and climate-resilient economy in sync with the natural environment, demonstrating a strong commitment to supporting the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
TOPIC: Demonstrating systemic urban development for circular and regenerative cities
Topic identifier: CE-SC5-03-2018
Publication date: 27 October 2017
Focus area: Connecting economic and environmental gains - the Circular Economy (CE)
Types of action: IA Innovation action
Deadline Model:
Opening date: two-stage
Deadline: 07 November 2017
2nd stage Deadline: 27 February 2018 17:00:00
04 September 2018 17:00:00
Time Zone: (Brussels time)
Specific Challenge:
Cities struggle in their transition to implement a full circular economy model incorporating regenerative practices. There is a clear need for cities to become circular in order to alter urban consumption patterns and value chains, and to stimulate innovation, business opportunities, and job creation in both established and newly created sectors. New, more flexible systemic urban planning instruments enabling the design and implementation of circular urban processes would make urban and peri-urban areas regenerative and facilitate their adaptation to emerging economic, social and environmental challenges.
TOPIC: Building a water-smart economy and society (Forthcoming)
Topic identifier: CE-SC5-04-2019
Publication date: 27 October 2017
Focus area: Connecting economic and environmental gains - the Circular Economy (CE)
Types of action: IA Innovation action
Deadline Model:
Opening date: two-stage
Deadline: 14 November 2018
2nd stage Deadline: 19 February 2019 17:00:00
04 September 2018 17:00:00
Time Zone: (Brussels time)
Specific Challenge:
There is a growing demand for water from various economic activities and increasing stress on natural water sources. To secure water for our society, there is therefore a need to make available alternative water resources of various qualities and which are appropriate for different functions and multiple users, and to better exploit water resources and all the valuable substances that could be obtained through the wastewater treatment and reuse process. However, innovations in this domain remain fragmented and/or only experimented at small scales; testing and deployment in operational environments and at scales suitable for encouraging wider uptake is still missing.
