Vodja projekta:

doc. dr. Gregor Dolanc

Trajanje:

1.1.2024 - 31.12.2027

Financiranje:

Horizon Europe , Področje: HORIZON-CL4-2023-TWIN-TRANSITION-01-33 - Electrification of high temperature heating systems (Processes4Planet Partnership) (IA)

Povzetek:

Addressing global warming requires a reduction in CO2 emissions. This is challenging for energy-intensive industries, such as process and production, which account for one-third of total energy consumption. Intelligent electrification becomes crucial for powering all operational processes, enabling the substitution of emissions-intensive technologies with renewable electricity, and rendering processes completely emission-free. The EU-funded CITADEL project aims to replace fossil fuel-based combustion processes with electric technologies. It concentrates on specific use cases, including the production of refractory bricks, glass, and copper wires, as well as preheating processes in steel production and concrete recycling. CITADEL involves the construction of demonstration plants located close to the processes, the simulation of challenges using numerical models, and risk assessments.
