Harmonizing and optimising composting plants performances in Europe
Funds a coordination project that studies and harmonises how industrial composting plants across Europe handle compostable packaging.
This is a single-stage Horizon Europe Coordination and Support Action, with a EUR 2,000,000 indicative budget for this topic and one grant expected. Costs are paid as a lump sum rather than on actuals. The task list includes analysing plants' environmental impact, such as air, water and soil emissions, odours and energy use, and compost safety measures like pathogen control, plus identifying promi…
The Commission wants a project that analyses how industrial composting plants across the EU perform, especially when handling EN 13432-compliant compostable packaging, and pinpoints why many plants still can't fully biodegrade it. It is looking for best-practice performance parameters and recommendations to harmonise industrial composting conditions across the bloc.
