Project Summary
Biomimicry and carbon adsorbent eco-materials for a climate neutral economy
Project Milestones
2023 - First Year
Biomimicry pre-concepts & methodologies
Work performed & Main Results
The first year of the CSTO2NE project has bring a strong foundation for collaboration and innovation in developing eco-materials for a climate-neutral economy.
Through diligent coordination, management, and active engagement of consortium members, the project is well-positioned to achieve its technical & innovation objectives in the coming years.
4 priority use cases were defined, and research and development work was carried out.
-
DarkCo2: Utilizing industrial by-products, hardened with Accelerated Carbonation Technology (ACT), for construction materials;
-
CircaBuild: Developing high-performing aggregates that minimize carbon footprint without sacrificing quality;
-
Phytomining: Using plants to extract metals and minerals from polluted soil, serving both decontamination and mining purposes.
-
Microplastic Capture: Filtering microplastics from wastewater to prevent ocean pollution.
More details to come : stay tuned.
