WASTE-2-2014A systems approach for the reduction, recycling and reuse of food waste

Challenge

Food waste has taken on disquieting proportions worldwide in all steps of the food production and supply chain but especiallyat consumer level. Before defining measures to reduce such waste at all stages it is necessary to develop a better understandingof business and consumer behaviour in relation to waste generation, handling, reuse and by-product valorisation.Technologies for the collection, sorting/grading, stabilisation and valorisation of food waste, by-products and packaging materialneed improvement or development. The aim is to optimise the performance of the whole food system, including packaging,catering and consumers, and achieve a secure and sustainable food supply, also for the poor.

Scope

• Proposals should address:• reducing food waste and packaging materials generated at relevant stages of the food system• investigate ways of converting food waste into value-added by-products.

• Developing a comprehensive methodology for evaluating food waste in all its components• Inter-disciplinary research methods include practical, close-to-market approaches• Developing of a database/inventory of recyclable materials, valuable molecules, substances and materials originating from

waste and by-products, also in view of future life cycle assessments (LCAs).• Solid involvement of social sciences and humanities and civil society to understand all the dimension of food waste• Proposals are encouraged to include third country participants, especially those established in China

Impatto atteso

• Achieving the European policy target of reducing food waste by 50% by 2030• A reduction in waste management costs, and in environmental impacts, including emission of greenhouse gases.• Supporting a harmonised approach to EU food waste legislation and improved national implementation, new standards.• An increase in the competitiveness of the European food and drink and chemical industry, in particular SMEs.• Sustainable food consumption patterns leading to healthier consumers and as a result reduced national health costs.

WASTE-7-2014Ensuring sustainable use of agricultural waste, co-products and by-products

Challenge

Agriculture generates co-products, by-products and waste streams currently not properly taken care.In plant production, losses take place at the farm and post-harvest levels and also down the chain at the level of theretail sector. Co-products or by-products are generated which require sustainable use.In livestock production, manure, litter and other effluents management is a challenge, in particular in industrialproduction systems. While these effluents can be used as fertiliser, they can also be sources of bio-energy or valuablebio-products. The impacts on the environment, with emissions to the air, soil and water need to be evaluated. It isimportant to consider the whole effluent chain to avoid pollution swapping and health issues, due to possibletransmission of pathogens.Beyond reduction and recycling of agricultural waste, co-products and by-products, there may be opportunities fornew processes enabling innovative uses of these materials, also outside the agricultural sector.

Scope

• Evaluate existing techniques and develop new and innovative approaches for efficient use of agricultural waste, co-products and by-products, thereby contributing to the creation of sustainable value chains in the farming andprocessing sectors

• A range of sector-specific case studies (in terms of sources of waste and uses as well as geographic coverage) shouldserve to test and take up proposed approaches and technologies. As regards manure and effluents, proposalsshould address some or all of the following areas:• nutrient, energy and biochemical recovery from manure and other effluents;• improved knowledge on the environmental impact of manure and other effluents, further developing

measurements and good manufacturing practices, minimising impacts on water and air quality (emissions andodours);

• sanitary implications of pathogens that can be transmitted from manure and possible control options;•management chains, from processing to transport and application.

• Involvement of industry (strong SMEs participation) should be ensured, pilot and/or demonstration activities.• proposals are encouraged to include third country participants, especially those established in China.

WASTE-7-2014Ensuring sustainable use of agricultural waste, co-products and by-products

Impatto atteso

• awareness and dialogue across sectors on availability, needs and options for smart use of agricultural waste, by-andco-products through creation of joint stakeholders platform and other joint structures.

• Improved resource efficiency through reduction of waste and improved waste management in primary production.• Increased opportunities for valorisation of waste, by-and co-products resulting in environmental and economic

benefits for the farming sector (development of new products and processes).• Enhanced competitiveness through more varied and/or new types of sources for bio-products and bio-energy in the

agro-food (conventional and organic) and bioeconomy sectors.• Improved soil quality and crop productivity – through an optimal use of crop waste (taking into account the need to

maintain soil organic matter levels) and nutrient recovery.• Improved water quality – reducing pollution and eutrophication of ground waters, and thus indirectly marine

waters.• Improved air quality – by reducing livestock emissions.• Progress towards regulatory and standard development, in particular with respect to environmental protection and

food safety.

WATER INNOVATION: Boosting its value for Europe (1)

Pagina 21

WATER-1.a-2014Bridging the gap: from innovative water solutions to market replication - First application

and market replication

Challenge

One of the main factors hampering the market uptake of innovative solutions in the field of water is the lack of realscale demonstration of their long term viability. In addition, highly promising and sustainable eco-innovative watersolutions (technologies, processes, products, services etc.) often do not reach the market due to pre-commercialisation challenges and the residual risk linked to scaling-up.There is therefore a need to take action to accelerate the commercialisation of eco-innovative water solutions with aview to stimulating sustainable economic growth, business and job creation in the water sector.The EIP on Water has identified 5 thematic priorities (water reuse and recycling; water and waste water treatment,including recovery of resources; water and energy integration; flood and drought risk management; and the role ofecosystem services in the provision of water related services) and 3 cross-cutting priorities (water governance;decision support systems and monitoring; and financing for innovation).

Scope

• First application and market replication of near-market water solutions, addressing the thematic prioritiesidentified in the EIP on Water.

• help process industries become less water dependant while ensuring efficient management of other resourcesand/or exploiting untapped potential of ICT: solutions for water resources management in agriculture and urbanareas.

• Complex issues should be addressed with innovative, creative solutions with a globally positive environmentalimpact (LCA).

• Social, institutional, economic and governance aspects ensuring a more rapid uptake of solutions as well as aspectsaffecting market deployment and uptake, such as, standardisation and regulatory issues, market assessment andbusiness plan.

SC5-3.a-2014Economic assessment of climate change

Challenge

Policy makers face societal and economic challenges when addressing climate change, including the need to bring climateaction into the wider agenda of economic welfare and sustainable development. Decision-making processes require robustestimates of the costs and benefits, as well as risks and opportunities associated with different mitigation pathways against abackground of uncertainty about the future climate and its impacts. It is also necessary to explicitly address the links betweenthe development of low-emission and climate-resilient strategies and other policies to promote sustainable development,and to understand how both the mitigation of and adaptation to climate change is connected to issues such as eradication ofenergy poverty, increased well-being and welfare, air quality improvement, technology innovation, and food and wateravailability. To respond effectively to climate change and simultaneously meet sustainable development goals, radicaltransformations are needed to enable the transition to a clean, low-carbon, sustainable and resilient society, at the national,regional and global levels.

Scope

• Developing a comprehensive economic assessment of climate change, considering different mitigation and adaptationstrategies, focusing on the low-carbon transformation of the economy, and evaluate as well the costs of inaction.

• quantify the costs, benefits and risks of different technological and societal transitional changes of the energy system• examine the impacts on green growth, innovation dynamics, job creation and social cohesion• develop tools and methodologies in support of evidence-based decision making.

Impatto atteso

• Support for technological, institutional and socio-economic innovation in the area of climate action.• Reduction of the uncertainties in assessing and computing the costs, benefits and economic values of mitigation options.• Facilitation of EU and global climate policy goals and mainstreaming of climate change mitigation options across multiple

scales and sectors.• Contribution to major international scientific assessment (e.g. IPCC).
