The DECONWASTE project, funded by IVACE+i and the ERDF, aims to address the challenge of meeting the food safety requirements set by European regulations and ensuring consumer protection.
The project aims to research and develop new methods for cleaning and decontaminating recycled plastics, specifically polyolefins—a type of material widely used in packaging.
In this regard, DECONWASTE will work on developing effective methods to overcome these obstacles and ensure that recycled materials meet safety standards for reuse in food applications.
The project involves collaboration with Acteco, SPBERNER, and PICDA—companies committed to innovation and sustainability that are actively participating in validating the developed technologies.
The project is funded by the Valencian Institute for Competitiveness and Innovation (IVACE+i) through the 2024 call for Strategic Cooperation Projects, and by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF).
