Research to advance UK recycling capabilities – full stage

Objectives: The funding opportunity aims to support up to nine research projects that accelerate the UK's recycling capabilities. The projects should develop technologies and systems that are more energy-efficient, scalable, environmentally sustainable, and economically viable. By addressing entire recycling systems, from collection to material recycling, the initiative seeks to increase recycling levels while retaining value within the UK. Successful projects will address challenges like complex waste materials and aim for high-quality research with significant societal, economic, and environmental impacts.
