Carbon Dioxide Sequestration in Wastes: The SAPICO2 Project
نویسندگان
چکیده
The SAPICO2 project is an INTERREG IVA cross channel collaboration established to develop new technologies utilising accelerated carbonation for the creation of eco-construction materials from solid wastes. Over three phases, the project has identified carbon dioxide reactivity of solid wastes, produced prototype-construction materials (from these wastes), and manufactured bulk samples of carbonated products. The project aims to introduce carbonated building products into continental Europe, by demonstrating the potential of this emerging technology to meet the EU sustainability agenda. By collaborating with the major bodies responsible for environmental matters, it is hoped that new policy and mechanisms can be developed that facilitate the full commercial valorisation of waste using gaseous CO2.
