REAL SCALE DEMO CASES

OVERALL CIRCULAR CASES

Five different Circular Economy Models will be major developed through Real Scale demonstrators

Circular Cases

Circular Case

Construction sector

Valorisation of Paper industry’s causticizing residuals (i.e. lime mud, slaker grits and green liquor dregs) as secondary raw materials for concrete and asphalt manufacturing.

Central Portugal:

Lime mud as concrete filler; slaker grits and DREGS as aggregates for asphalt pavements.
