📊 After 4 years of hard work, dedication, and collaboration, we are thrilled to share some remarkable results.
These achievements mark a significant milestone in the EU's mission to transform process industries into more sustainable, eco-friendly, and cost-effective sectors🌟
Diego Redondo, @fCIRCE shares thoughts on the replication potential and challenges of the #RETROFEED project. The pathway to commercialization is not easy, because of different legislations and bureaucracy so it is critical to work towards harmonisation
⚡️Exciting insights from @Luca__Ferrari of @optitsrl_en on how #RETROFEED solutions, a web and cloud-based Digital Support System (DSS), can reshape and innovate the heavy-industry sector. Interested in knowing the benefits of integrating one in your company?
Get in touch!👥
👏 A big thank you to all our #Retrofeed speakers for sharing the challenges and opportunities looking at the future.
Looking ahead, it is 🔑to:
- dialogue with other energy-intensive industries
-dombine different challenges, such as hydrogen production in an integrated way
“Energy Efficiency is great, as at the end of the day, he cheaper and most environmental energy is the one we don’t use.”
Ludo Diels @ASPIRE_P4Planet, kicking off the panel discussion on challenges for the partners and potential for replication of #Retrofeed in other sectors.
👥Lastly, Tutku Özen from ASAS, explains how the Instanbul-based company has increased the energy efficiency & resource efficiency in the aluminium sector respectively by 18% and 57%, by enabling alternative raw materials while maintaining competitive, high-performance equipment.
🌟 Ângela Nunes, from SECIL, underscores #RETROFEED's contribution to the cement sector's environmental goals, reducing CO2 emissions by 11%. 🏗️
During the project, a new design for an industrial burner was developed & installed together with new sensors.
👥 Mircea Blaga from @SILCOTUB@Tenaris were able to integrate the #retrofeed methodology in the industrial process.
On a personal note, Mircel was impressed by the complexity of the activities and the commitment of the partners from different sectors around 1 technology.
👥 Carlos Concepcion of TORRECID is taking the stage to discuss how #RETROFEED is making waves in the ceramic sector. 🌱 Thanks to the optimized waste gas recovery system, the company has a achieved reduction 15% of CO2 emissions and a reduction of water consumption of 20%.

👥First up, Francisca Galindo from @grupofertiberia is sharing her insights on #RETROFEED's impact in the chemical sector.
After the pilot plant and the final results, steam consumption is expected to be reduced by 0.5 t/h, and Natural Gas by 40%.
"Despite the challenges, the covid pandemic and the NG price crisis, #RETROFEED has been a successful project, as we now have 5 demos up and running."
Roberto Arevalo Turnes, @fCIRCE presenting the ov
erall results of the project. Follow to hear insights from industry experts!
Lucía Fernandez @EU_HaDEA kicks off the RETROFEED event, and talks about SPIRE Partnerships and the need of adapting to increased variety of resource feedstock & energy efficiency improvements. "Project like #Retrofeed contribute to achieving the climate neutrality by 2050".
