EIT - KIC Raw materials: exploration-exploitation-extraction-processing-
recycling-reuseKIC = Knowledge and Innovation Community; Initiative of the European Institute for Innovation and Technology (EIT)
EIT - an independent body of the European Union established in March 2008, part of H2020 with a dedicated budget of 2,7 billion €
Mission: increase European sustainable growth and competitiveness by reinforcing the innovation capacity of the EU Conceptual methodology: integrate higher education, research and business in areas of high societal need (the knowledge triangle) Overcoming fragmentation via long-term integrated partnerships and achieving critical mass

What is a Knowledge and Innovation Community (KIC)?
• KICs are the operational part of the EIT •KICs are long-term (min. 10 years) highly integrated, creative and excellence-driven partnerships gathering world-class partners from industry, research and universities •KICs aim at implementing results from classic R&D projects and bring them to market readiness •KICs receive a funding from the EIT to leverage ongoing projects towards market implementation
• Development, testing and market transfer of new technologies
From lab to market
• Design of industry oriented, interdisciplinary education schemes
From student to entrepreneur
• New ways of collaboration between industry and research
From idea to product
New R&D mindset“Research is to transform money into knowledge, Innovation is to turn knowledge into money”
KIC InnoEnergy
EIT KIC for Raw Materials
The aim: To ensure accessibility, availability and sustainable use of raw materials that is and achieve a resource efficient economy
What it will achieve: KIC raw materials will be a knowledge hub and centre of expertise on academic, technical and practical education and research in sustainable surface, subsurface, deep-sea, urban and landfill mining, material management, recycling technologies, end of life management, material substitution and open trade as well as global governance in raw materials.
Exploration Extraction Processing Metallurgy/ Recycling Substitution

Under preparationEstimated value 350 kE
Recovery of valuable raw materials from complex waste streams (eg. slags, sludges, dusts, WEEE, incineration ashes, shredder waste) by physical separation and pre-treatment technologies, e.g. (para)magnetic, density, triboelectrostatic, flotation Specialised lab, pilot or full scale equipment for physical separation and pre-treatment of complex waste streams, backed by adequate modelling capacity; the network will provide access to a variety of physical separation facilities and provide quick characterisation tools to identify suitable valorisation routes/techniques
•Expected synergies: The network will combine complementary separation technologies offered by the partners and as such provides a unique access point to evaluate the feasibility of a range of physical separation and pre-treatment techniques
