End-of-Life of Electronic Devices Printed on Cellulosic Substrates: Recycling and Valorization of Biosourced Materials for Paper Industry Effluents Remediation

Short Introductive summary

Due to the sustainable technology integration, printed electronic devices has been emerging on the market of packaging, magazines or labels. These innovative devices consist of three main components: cellulose fibers, which is sustainable and renewable resource, polymers and metal-based inks. However, as the production of such devices increases, concerns regarding their end-of-life, recyclability, and environmental effects arise. Therefore, the REVeBIO project aims to address this challenge within the framework of the European Green Deal. The ultimate goal is to integrate electronic bio-based materials into a circular economy approach. To achieve its objective, the project focuses on developing an eco-efficient recycling process able to valorize printed electronic devices in a sustainable way. In a first step, valuable cellulose fibers and ink components will be separated and quantified. At the same time, the residual fractions will be valorized into eco-sorbent biochar to be used further in pulp and paper effluents remediation. In this sense, the project will contribute to reduce the amount of waste generate by this e-devices, as well as mitigate greenhouse gas emissions.
