WE INNOVATE to close material loops Herman Derache, Sirris And we help you become factories of the future © sirris | www.sirris.be | info@sirris.be | 27.03.14 1 Closing material loops: challenges Necessary, rewarding Complex, multidisciplinary, multi-stakeholder Technical Logistical Juridical Economical Psychological (behaviour) And these aspects are linked © sirris | www.sirris.be | info@sirris.be | 27.03.14 2 Some technical challenges Material characterisation (eg. waste streams) Sorting technology Recycling technology (adaptation of) product design New material properties (recycled versus virgin) Design for recycling Reuse (eg. modular design) Production process adaptation Assessing life cycle impact (LCA) Standards & norms © sirris | www.sirris.be | info@sirris.be | 27.03.14 3 Sirris’ contributions Identification and prioritization of opportunities Matchmaking + Composing multidisciplinary teams (together with our partner network) Setting up vertically integrated projects Bringing in the required techological expertise Project execution and coordination Collective actions and knowledge build-up Broader scope than typical Sirris (technological +) © sirris | www.sirris.be | info@sirris.be | 27.03.14 4 Sirris’ expertise Product design and development: selection, modeling and simulation, testing Manufacturing: parameter optimisation, simulation, characterisation,… Mechatronics: sorting technology, internet of things Multi-X projects Sustainability © sirris | www.sirris.be | info@sirris.be | 27.03.14 5 SOFTWARE ENGINEERING CLOUD COMPUTING DATA INNOVATION METALS COMPOSITES PLASTICS & HYBRIDS COATINGS NANOMATERIALS FACTORIES OF FUTURE WORLD CLASS TECHNOLOGIES ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING ECO-MECHATRONICS SENSORIZED FUTURE MODEL BASED DESIGN Focus on metals, plastics and coatings © sirris | www.sirris.be | info@sirris.be | 27.03.14 6 Bottom-up and top-down Systemic changes: need for holistic approach Learning by doing need for small scale experiments © sirris | www.sirris.be | info@sirris.be | 27.03.14 7 Case: baby bottle reborn Baby bottles from maternities: from waste incineration to material recycling © sirris | www.sirris.be | info@sirris.be | 27.03.14 8 Case: Verimpex From discarded airplane tires to flooring mats.

In SIM’s current programmes sustainability is a crucial criterium (conditio sine qua non) 2. Within the additive manufacturing programme recyclability of raw materials (mainly plastics) is one of the major topics 3. Phase 1 programme call “recyclable materials” is open! Closing date June 2nd 2014 www.sim-flanders.be/call/call-11-recyclable-materials Conclusions Source : Ellen MacArthur foundation © sirris | www.sirris.be | info@sirris.be | 27.03.14 15 Critical succes factors 1. Stop the fragmentation 2. Top-down: smart specialization based on local strengths and roadmaps (BE + EU) 1. EIP Raw Materials, KIC Raw Matters,… 3. Facilitate bottom-up experiments 1. Non-technological barriers & transition aspects 2.
