Details
Closed project
Start
June 2021
End
May 2024
Project objectives
Ensure sustainable use of raw materials in the automotive sector, reducing material supply risks.
Adopt the circular economy paradigm in the automotive sector in practice, acting as a demonstrator for the manufacturing sector.
Offer better vehicle-related economic, environmental and social performance to all end-users.
Create new supply chains around End of Life Vehicles (ELVs), focusing on the circular exploitation of the raw materials embedded in cars.
Concrete actions
- Development of an artificial intelligence-based scenario assessment tool to support the development of circular supply chains in the automotive sector.
- Representation of a series of success stories in three key automotive value chains, such as dismantlers/crushers, recyclers and manufacturers, demonstrating the benefits of adopting circularity principles in the automotive sector.
- Integrating Key Enabling Technologies (KETs) for the efficient design of car electronics and subsequent dismantling and material recovery.
Project partners
The TREASURE consortium is coordinated by the Politecnico di Milano and consists of a group of 15 organisations from 7 European countries (Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland, Estonia, Latvia, France), which complement each other in terms of knowledge base, technical expertise, ability to create new knowledge and commercial and market experience where the project results can be readily exploited.
