IPPT_TWINN REINFORCING THE SCIENTIFIC EXCELLENCE AND INNOVATION CAPACITY IN POLYMER PROCESSING TECHNOLOGIES OF THE FACULTY OF POLYMER TECHNOLOGY
Coordinator: FAKULTETA ZA TEHNOLOGIJO POLIMEROV (SI)
Global annual consumption of plastics is expected to increase from the current 368 million tons (2019) to 1.1 billion tons in 2050. However, this growth also poses some dangers, such as the increasing amount of plastic waste and a rise in CO2 emissions. One of the ways to tackle these problems is to produce more durable products and to use processing technologies that generate less waste. The IPPT_TWINN project addresses both methods, as more durable products can be manufactured through a better understanding of processing methods and waste can be reduced through the application of new techno…
About Horizon Europe (2021–2027)
Horizon Europe is the EU's current research and innovation programme, covering 2021 to 2027 with a budget of roughly €95.5 billion. Its three pillars are Excellent Science (frontier research and mobility), Global Challenges and European Industrial Competitiveness (mission-driven collaborative projects in health, climate, digital, security and food) and Innovative Europe (the EIC and EIT). It also funds five EU Missions targeting cancer, climate adaptation, smart cities, oceans and soils.
EU contribution: €1.2M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 3 years from 2023-01-01 to 2025-12-31.
