PROVED
Project code: P_40_301, SMIS code: 105707 |
Project title: Processes and operational systems for material and energy treatment and valorization of waste / PROVED |
Priority Axis 1 – Research, technological development and innovation (RDI) in support of economic competitiveness and business development |
Action 1.2.3 – Partnerships for knowledge transfer |
The aim of the PROVED project
The PROVED project aims to increase the transfer of knowledge, technology and personnel with RDI skills between the public and private sectors. The project encourages the interaction between UPB and the business environment; Inoveco is one of the collaborating enterprises, subcontractor of this project. Inoveco has been involved in this partnership with the aim of obtaining knowledge, including skills and competences that will meet the strategic needs of the enterprise's development, to develop innovative solutions for obtaining products and processes, new / improved technologies required by the market, in the field of composting.
The activities financed within the project are:
- transfer of research and development skills/competences and innovation support, including contractual research executed at the request of the enterprise (R&D activities offered by UPB);
- research and development carried out in effective collaboration upb – Inoveco.
General objective of the PROVED project
The general objective of the project"Processes and operational systems for the treatment and material and energy valorization of waste – PROVED" consists in increasing the transfer of knowledge, technology and personnel with RDI competences between the Polytechnic University of Bucharest and the private environment by achieving an eco-technology for energy recovery of municipal waste and obtaining a Fuel Derived from Waste (CDD), of a technology for the production of a gas with superior combustible properties (biogas), of an innovative technology of waste management and tracking with the measurement of complex effects (social, environmental and economic) as well as of an advanced system of depollution of the leachate resulting from landfills.
Specific objectives
The project has the following specific objectives of financing research activities in effective, industrial and experimental collaboration:
- financing the access of the enterprises to the expertise and facilities of the UPB research organization in order to market the research results to the partner SMEs that develop the business required by the market, offering innovative solutions for obtaining products and processes as well as eco-technologies
- choosing the optimal solution for pre-treatment of municipal waste based on the results of experimental research conducted by the research organization
- obtaining materially recoverable by-products resulting from biological waste treatment processes and their preparation by composting, for use in agriculture, parks and gardens, as a natural fertilizer:
- industrial research on composting technologies using various types of technological processes and equipment, in different combinations of recipes. The research will be carried out at the Chiajna landfill, in 4 paddocks, as well as eventually in other possible locations;
- analysis of existing standards at national and international level and proposals for standards regarding the categories of compost;
- optimization of composting recipes for different technological processes of composting and equipment in order to obtain different qualities of compost;
- acquisition of composting equipment for industrial research;
- experimental activities for optimizing composting recipes for different technological composting processes and equipment in order to obtain different composting qualities.
The implementation period of the PROVED Project for Inoveco: 05.04.2018- 07.09.2021.
