ECOTRON is a Horizon Europe project aiming to improve the sustainability, circularity and recyclability of printed electronics (PE).
ECOTRON consortium, consisting of research centers (TNO - Holst Centre, CEA, VTT and ITENE), a university (POLIMI), industry (Técnicas Reunidas, Beckton Dickinson, Signify, POLAR and Johnson & Johnson - Janssen) and an SME (AMIRES), focuses on:
* Circular build-up of electronics: recycling of substrate (solvolysis, chemical recycling) metal recovery (supercritical fluid extraction, solvometallurgy), reversible interconnects (Diels-Alder, Gecko) and separation technologies (Photonic, Sacrifice layer);
* Renewable and compostable electronics: biobased or compostable materials for substrates and inks;
* Setting up PE recycling protocols and developing a blueprint for an industrial-scale PE recycling plant.
Developed technologies will be demonstrated in 4 use-cases:
* Medical application: On-body drug dosing system (Beckton Dickinson)
* Consumer electronics: Light foil (Signify)
* Wearable electronics: Sports/activity tracker (POLAR)
* Smart packaging: Temperature sensing labels for drug packaging (Janssen - Johnson & Johnson)
This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 101070167.
