REMADE funds 24 more materials recovery projects

摘要

A federal initiative focused on energy efficiency in U.S. manufacturing recently selected two dozen recycling projects to support. A majority of the projects are related to plastics recycling, but others target fiber, metals and more. The REMADE (Reducing Embodied-Energy and Decreasing Emissions) Institute on March 1 announced 24 projects that will receive funding from the organization. Combined, the research efforts will receive $43 million from REMADE. REMADE is funded partially through the U.S. Department of Energy, and its goal has been to develop technologies reducing energy usage and greenhouse gas emissions in manufacturing by improving recycling, remanufac-turing and reuse.
