The CIRCOM Project will produce sustainable materials with cementitious characteristics from aluminosilicates rich industrial waste, generated by both the metal-mechanical industry and the construction sector.
The companies TALLERES F. LARRINAGA S.L., Metal Stamping & Hot Industry S.L. (MESHIND) and the Metallurgy Research Centre AZTERLAN collaborate on the development of these critical elements, which will have to withstand extreme working conditions. For this purpose, a detailed study of the materials and the working conditions is the first step to later design the new components and their optimal manufacturing routes by means of different technologies.
Among other fields of collaboration, the agreement contemplates the creation of a technological classroom, "Aula-Tecnológica AZTERLAN-DEUSTO", that will train new talent through a practical experience in the development of industry 4.0 technologies for the metal-mechanic sector.
The HICORE Project aims at developin a solution of high environmental and economic impact that will offer a new way of recovering green molding sands, with cyrcular economy approach for the foundry sector.
Almost 40 technicians from 29 different organizations have taken part in this outstanding framework coordinated by Durangaldea Enpresa Ekimena and aimed at sharing some keys to industrial waste advanced management and the Euskadi 2030 Waste Prevention Plan.
