Specific Challenge:

Nowadays, 12% of water utilisation in the EU is devoted to industrial use. Since water is a scarce resource, it is crucial for the European industry to change the current paradigm and develop more sustainable and efficient water technologies, which is also an important element for increasing its competitiveness, because a significant amount of energy is consumed for industrial water treatment. In the sustainable development context, efficient water use is closely linked to the efficient use and re-use of other resources, such as energy, chemicals, raw materials and soils. As such, these aspects need to be considered holistically in order to develop sustainable solutions.

Scope

The main objective is the optimisation of the use of water in industry. Research activities should focus on several of the following areas:

  • Combining existing technologies (e.g. advanced processing, nano-technology and materials) in order to achieve enhanced sustainability in water treatment processes by reducing water use, energy and raw materials consumption and at the same time minimizing waste and/or recovering valuable substances.
  • Selective separation processes in order to be able to treat specific industrial fluxes, also leading to the recovery of valuable substances.
  • Adaptation of current processes or equipment to use alternative water sources. e.g. rainwater, salt or brackish water, cooling water, or Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTP) effluent.
  • Alternative cooling/heating methods. Reducing the energy levels that are needed for water and steam related production processes; dry cooling technologies; water and energy recovery processes from water vapour.
  • Use of renewable energy, in order to achieve low energy water treatment processes (e.g. photo-degradation of pollutants).
  • Development of closed loop recycling and reuse, involving cascading of processes and industrial water symbiosis.
  • Development of a sustainable strategy for selecting materials and infrastructure for water transport and use, including water storage and treatment.

The proposals should also include a Life cycle analysis, since it offers the framework to deliver meaningful information on the "water footprint" of manufactured goods, delivered services, business operations and consumer behaviour. The total footprint of the process regarding water, energy and resources should be considered.

Activities are expected to focus on Technology Readiness Levels 5 to 7 and to be centred around TRL 6. This topic addresses cross-KET activities. The proposals are expected to allocate at least 30% of the budget to demonstration activities.

This topic is particularly suitable for SMEs.

The Commission considers that proposals requesting a contribution from the EU between EUR 5 and 7 million would allow this specific challenge to be addressed appropriately. Nonetheless, this does not preclude submission and selection of proposals requesting other amounts.

Expected Impact:
  • Reduction of at least 20% in water use compared to the current practice in the sector.
  • Reduction of at least 30% in wastewater production compared to the current practice in the sector.
  • Reduction of at least 15% in energy use compared to the current practice in the sector.
  • Minimising the Water Footprint, employing less water intensive or waterless technologies and increasing recycling.
  • New technology developments in water treatment and wide adoption of these technologies to enhance sustainability in the process industries.
  • Decouple the industrial production from the utilisation of fresh water reserves

In order to properly monitor the Resource Efficiency Impact, Key Performance Indicators should be implemented.

Proposals should include a business case and exploitation strategy, as outlined in the Introduction to the LEIT part of this Work Programme.

H2020-CIRC-2016-TwoStage, first stageThe evaluation of first stage proposals is now complete. The coordinators of proposals who failed to pass to the second stage have been informed in writing, and have each received an Evaluation Summary Report (ESR) setting out scores and comments.The “Flash info” published on the Participant Portal shows the key statistics related to this call, including number of proposals submitted, the number evaluated, and the number passing the thresholds and thus invited to the second stage.For successful first stage applicants, it is important to uphold the principle of equal treatment, and to ensure that all have a chance to benefit from the comments of experts. Therefore, instead of an ESR, this generalised feedback is provided now to all applicants invited to submit a full proposal at the second stage. You are kindly requested to take this feedback into account when preparing your full proposal. At the second stage you have a chance to address or clarify issues that should convince the second stage experts. Some or all of these experts may not be the same as those who reviewed your outline proposal.

Summary of main shortcomings in first stage successful proposals

CIRC-01:

• The objectives did not always include quantitative targets or these targets were not always convincingly supported.• The concept description was not always focused and clear on the innovation potential, the circular economy view, the economic mechanisms and governance required for a swift on a specific circular value chain.• The role of end-users was not always sufficiently described with regards to their importance in the value chain or their involvement is missing at early stages • The expected TRL was not always sufficiently substantiated.• Large scale demonstrations were not always sufficiently explained and/or did not always have a clear co-design approach to justify the need for such demonstrations.• Expected economic and environmental impacts were not always adequately quantified and/or were not always sufficiently explained in relation to the demonstration. • Business models were not always sufficiently presented.

CIRC-02:

• The objectives did not always include quantitative targets or they were not always convincingly substantiated.• Objectives addressing the relevant legal, societal and market challenges were not always present.• The interest among fertilizer companies or other potential end-users of the recycled nutrient was not always demonstrated. • The role of end-users of recycled nutrient was not always sufficiently described, and often defined to contribute only in the last stages of the proposed action.• Quantitative information supporting the expected impact of the action was not always presented.• Metrics for the final capacity of the technology and its outputs were not always described.
