CUMERI

Industrial processes use a tremendous amount of valuable resources including raw materials, water and energy. Enhancing the efficient use of resources in environmentally friendly ways will contribute to a more sustainable and resilient economy. The EU-funded CUMERI project will develop and demonstrate advanced membrane separation systems customised for the steel and oil and gas (O&G) sectors. In the steel sector, one comprehensive system will both recover H2 and capture CO2. The O&G industry will benefit from a two-step liquid filtration system to recover base oil and additives recovery from used lubricant oil. The technologies will decrease emissions, enhance the valorisation of valuable chemicals, and increase energy efficiency while promoting a circular economy.
