NONTOX: Removing Hazardous Substances to Increase Recycling Rates of WEEE, ELV and CDW Plastics (2019-2022)
NONTOX project is developing a combination of technologies to recycle hazardous plastic waste generated from Waste Electrical and Electronics Equipment (WEEE), End of Life Vehicles (ELV) and Construction and Demolition Waste (CDW). The project has eight work-packages, each focusing on unique parts of the NONTOX area of interest, from the gathering of reliable statistics to novel pretreatment methods, and from developing new innovative approaches to valorise the recycled materials to the communication of design considerations. The role of Aalto team in the project is to be involved with material testing and design ideation, as well as in the communication eco-design considerations and recommendations to designers, researchers, and other actors.
