SeRaMCo-Secondary Raw Materials for Concrete Precast Products Details
Secondary Raw Materials for Concrete Precast Products (SeRaMCo) is an INTERREG funded project, aiming to replace primary raw materials with the high-quality materials recycled from the construction & demolition waste (CDW) in production of the cement and concrete products to be used in North-Western Europe (NWE). To attain this goal, the project will:-analyse and improve sorting of CDW, as a precondition of successful recycling;-develop and test new concrete mixes and technologies for the production of concrete precast products (CPPs);-establish a niche market for CPPs, leading to the economic advantages for the CPP producers and generating new job openings in the construction sector.SeRaMCo's expected outputs are cement and CPPs from up to 100% recycled aggregates, comparable to conventional products both in terms of costs and quality, and ready for commercialization in NWE.Prior to rolling-out across NWE and Europe as a whole, SeRaMCo will test its end-products in 3 pilot areas, namely City of Seraing (Belgium), City of Saarlouis (Germany) and Region of Moseille (France). Following the test phase, previously developed business models, supporting the supply chain of the new niche market and establishing ecosystem with the stakeholders active in the field, will be put in place.
