Raw materials innovation for the circular economy: sustainable processing,
re-use, recycling and recovery schemes
 a) Sustainable processing and refining of primary and/or secondary
 raw materials (2020)

 •   demonstrate new or improved systems integrating relevant processing and
     refining technologies for better recovery of minerals and metals at increased
     efficiency in terms of better yield and process selectivity as well as better utilisation
     of resources (hence reducing wastes)

 •   include processing of and recovery from low grade and/or complex ores and/or
     from industrial or mining wastes or landfills, and/or the reduction of the content
     of toxic elements or compounds in the resulting materials

 •   demonstrate the importance of the targeted raw materials.

CE-SC5-07-2020 (IA)

a) Sustainable processing and refining of primary and/or secondary raw
materials (2020)

•   the solution proposed should be flexible enough to adapt to different or variable
    ore/secondary raw material grades and should be supported by efficient and robust process
    control.

•   where relevant, any solution proposed for the reduction of the content of toxic elements or
    compounds in the resulting materials should also include the appropriate management of
    the hazardous substances removed.

Recycling of end-of-life products is excluded.

CE-SC5-07-2020 (IA)

b) Recycling of raw materials from end-of-life products (2020)

•   Develop and demonstrate novel and environmentally sound solutions for a higher
    recycling and recovery of secondary raw materials from end-of-life products such as:
          • waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE),
          • batteries,
          • wood-based panels,
          • multi-material paper packaging,
          • end-of-life tyres, etc.

•   These products can contain different minerals, metals, wood and wood-fibre, rubber, etc.
    (including critical raw materials and other technology metals)

•   The aim is to increase measurably the efficiency and effectiveness of the exploitation of
    "urban mines" when compared to the state of the art.

c) Recycling of raw materials from buildings and infrastructures (2020)

•   develop and demonstrate novel solutions for a high-value recovery of raw materials
    from buildings and infrastructures.

•   benchmark against a series of comparative case studies of construction and demolition
    waste (C&DW) management in deconstruction of buildings and infrastructure of
    representative size categories in countries with different types of end-of-life building and
    infrastructure stocks, showcasing the appropriate use of:
           • the EU C&DW Management Protocol,
           • pre-demolition audit,
           • smart demolition practices,
           • appropriate technical equipment,
           • sorting/processing and quality management of waste fractions such as metals,
             aggregates, concrete, bricks, plasterboard, glass, polymers and plastics and wood.

d) Advanced sorting systems for high-performance recycling of complex
end-of-life products (2020)

•   Develop and demonstrate innovative dismantling and sorting systems enabling
    functional recycling of Critical Raw Materials, or other types of highly efficient
    recovery of metals, minerals or construction materials, from complex end-of-life products
    and scrap thereof.

•   The advanced sorting systems should achieve very high throughput rates in order to allow
    their economically viable operation on the European market.

    public policies with emerging innovative mining systems.

•   Any of the metallic, industrials and/or construction minerals could be targeted.

•   However, the importance of the targeted raw materials for the EU economy has to be duly
    demonstrated in the proposal.

d) Pilots on substitution of critical and scarce raw materials (2020):

•   Actions should develop and demonstrate innovative and sustainable solutions
    for the appropriate substitution of       critical  and/or    scarce    raw
    materials use in applications related to any of the high tech sectors,
    such as the low-carbon renewable energy, electric and electronic, mobility
    sectors, etc.

•   Actions should build on existing research and aim at scaling-up and market
    uptake of the most promising solutions.

Coordination and support actions

•   Focus on coordination and networking of R&I projects, programmes and policies.
•  Actions consists of measures such as:
                – Standardisation,
                – Dissemination,
                – Communication/ raising-awareness,
                – Networking,

                – Supporting services,
                – Policy dialogues and
                – Mutual learning exercises and studies, including contributing to design studies for new
                    infrastructure.
• Main purpose of CSAs:
                – Increase networking opportunities
                – Exchange ideas and knowledge
                – Make the best-possible use of results
                – Increase the visibility

Raw materials policy support actions for the circular economy - Expert
network on Critical Raw Materials

•   Actions should contribute to improving EU official statistics and to building the EU
    knowledge base of primary and secondary raw materials (RMIS);

•   strengthen an EU expert network and community covering all raw materials
    screened in the CRM assessment of 2017, and once available also the raw materials of
    2020;

•   should improve data and knowledge on all screened raw materials; flexibly support
    the Commission in policy making related to CRM in general or linked to specific
    applications or sectors; as well in the relevant events organised by the
    Commission.

network on Critical Raw Materials

•   Actions should also support the Commission in the analysis of the future supply and
    demand of raw materials, policy and technology gaps and innovation potential along the raw
    materials value chains.

•   The consortium should organise the expert community across the EU covering
    expertise on primary and secondary resources; production, including exploration,
    mining, processing, recycling and refining; substitution of CRM; raw materials markets;
    future demand and supply; materials flows; socio-economic analysis, and strategic value
    chains and end-use sectors, including batteries, e-mobility, renewable energy,
    electronics, defence and aerospace.

Sustainable management in extractive industries

•   Actions should strengthen raw materials policy framework and foster mineral
    production in the EU.

•   They should ensure cross-sectoral policy coordination and integration aspects covering
    economic, environmental and social aspects in the value chain of the extractive life cycle,
    while focusing on access to deposits and permitting process.

•   Actions should take into account various external stakeholder interests and the general
    public, address circular economy and sustainable development aspects.

Sustainable management in extractive industries

•   Actions should develop a toolkit applicable across the EU Member States for assessing
    socio-economic and environmental impacts, land-use planning, health and safety issues, and
    reporting official statistics to support transparent permitting process of mining projects.

•   Based on the toolkit, actions should develop training materials and organise capacity-
    building workshops for competent authorities, industry and civil society in different
    Member States in different regions the EU and at the EU level.

•   The actions should avoid duplication and build on the results of the previous actions on
    the raw materials policy and legislative framework, mineral deposits of public importance,
    land use planning, engaging relevant authorities of different EU regions.
