MobileRecycle Green mobile recycling technology for dirty (none-recyclable) plastic waste

Coordinator: LEITNER TECHNOLOGIES SRO (SK)

The plastic waste is a serious problem for all over the world due its non-biodegradable character. Global problem of the plastic waste is in its limited recycling. On average, Europe produces 25, 2 million tonnes of plastic waste every year. 37% of the plastic waste ends up in landfills, 25% is recycled and 15% is composted. Only 23% is used for energy production. European economy thus loses a significant amount of potential 'secondary raw materials' among which plastic plays a significant part.The Leitner will introduce to the market a green method of recycling dirty plastic waste applicable…

About Horizon 2020 (2014–2020)

Horizon 2020 was the EU's flagship research and innovation programme for 2014–2020, with a budget of around €77 billion. It bundled FP7's strands with the EIT and the Competitiveness and Innovation Programme, introduced a stronger societal-challenge orientation, and pushed the funding logic toward closer-to-market innovation. New calls closed in 2020 but funded projects continued through 2024.

Co-funding: the European Union contributes €50k toward a total project budget of €71k — a funding rate of 70%, with the remainder covered by the consortium partners. The project runs over approximately 0.5 years from 2016-08-01 to 2017-01-31.
