Expected Outcome:Reducing dependencies of critical and strategic raw materials through partial or total substitution by safe and sustainable innovative advanced materials and/or via more efficient use of critical and strategic raw materials in production processes;Speeding up the innovation cycle within value chain(s) important for European industry;Enhancing competitiveness of the industries and operational costs, while making supply chains more secure;New or improved production processes, innovative advanced materials and products that are safer and more sustainable, supporting a clean and autonomous economy; andDemonstrating how the safe and sustainable by design (SSbD) chemicals and materials framework can guide innovation. Scope:The focus of this topic is on alternatives for the substitution or more efficient use of critical and strategic raw materials[1]. The design and development...

Expected Outcome:Innovative advanced materials designed for circularity are adopted in products faster, through accelerated production and technology uptake;Business models become available to enhance the use of circular advanced materials in strategic value chains; andResource efficiency (materials and energy) is increased significantly through a focus on circular advanced materials. Quality standards, harmonisation and regulatory requirements are addressed facilitating simplified market transition. Scope:The focus of this topic is on enabling circularity and resilient supply networks through R&I in advanced materials, in particular recyclable polymers and composites, magnets and metal (alloys) for additive manufacturing, and on accelerating their pathway to market. Proposals should develop new innovative advanced materials (IAMs) with superior or novel functionalities designed for circ...

Expected Outcome:Strengthening the expert capacity in the EU in a wide range of raw materials along the whole value chain;Better informed and more effective decision-making by the EU and National policy makers and the producers and users of raw materials regarding the supply and demand of raw materials and the associated environmental and social aspects;Improved EU official statistics and building the EU knowledge base of primary and secondary raw materials. Scope:Actions should strengthen an EU expert network and community covering all raw materials screened in the critical raw materials assessment of 2027. Flexibility in screening additional raw materials will be an added value.The consortium should build the EU expert community covering each screened raw material with expertise on primary and secondary resources; production, including exploration, mining, processing, recycling and ref...

Expected Outcome:Proposals should demonstrate the following expected outcomes:A sound understanding of the specific needs of industrial users (including but not limited to innovative SMEs, startups and scaleups) for Technology infrastructure services in specific priority areas including but not limited to advanced materials, clean energy, or health and biotechnology;Increased opportunities for industrial users for development, testing, up-scaling and deployment of new technologies via the use of services offered by Technology Infrastructures;Strengthened innovation and technology development capacity of European SMEs, startups and scaleups via improved access to Technology Infrastructures;Attractiveness and effectiveness of the developed access schemes for broadening the range of Technology Infrastructures users, especially for startups and scaleups, including with transnational access....

Expected Outcome:Increased recovery rates of valuable raw materials, particularly critical raw materials from low grade or complex ores and/or from mining waste;Increased economic performance in terms of higher material-, water-, energy- and cost-efficiency and flexibility in minerals processing and metallurgical processes; andImproved health, safety and environmental performance of the operations throughout the whole life cycle that is considered, including a reduction in waste, wastewater and generation of emissions of air pollutants and a better recovery of resources from generated waste, reducing the environmental footprint and contributing to biodiversity and ecosystems preservation. Scope:Actions should develop and validate / demonstrate pilot scale facility located in the EU integrating relevant processing and refining technologies for improved recovery of raw materials from low g...

Expected Outcome:Advanced manufacturing technology and machinery becomes available in Europe for the manufacturing of key and high-performance products;Where relevant, production becomes increasingly circular through the reuse of secondary raw materials; and/or innovative advanced materials are incorporated in manufactured products, leading to better performance and quality; Resource efficiency in terms of materials and energy is increased significantly; andCircularity, productivity and competitiveness are increased, and hence resilience of European industry is enhanced. Scope:This topic addresses technologies and machinery for advanced manufacturing, focusing on manufacturing excellence and on increasing circularity, including through the better use of innovative advanced materials and secondary raw materials. The focus is on key manufactured components and products that are competitive...

Expected Outcome:A viable industrial ecosystem for circularity in manufacturing industries emerges, enhancing both circularity and resilience;De-manufacturing technologies and practices become available, making decisive contributions to a European remanufacturing industry and market;Functions of products are retained, reused, upgraded or adapted through de-manufacturing and re-manufacturing; andSkills, standards and safety measures relevant to remanufacturing are developed. Scope:Proposals should focus on developing de-manufacturing and re-manufacturing technologies at the factory level, addressing at least three of the following:Technologies to efficiently analyse part condition and support predictive maintenance, including for re-manufactured parts or components of lower value, e.g. by combining multimodal sensor data, AI and human inputs;AI and robotic-assisted technologies, e.g. inno...
