The final stage of the BORRACHA 2.0 (RUBBER 2.0) project marks its transition from a pilot initiative to a fully validated Circular Solution. The final stage of the BORRACHA 2.0 (RUBBER 2.0) project marks its transition from a pilot initiative to a fully validated Circular Solution. With the completion of the Good Practice Manual, technical procedures and forms of coordination between waste-generating companies, management operators and recovery entities have been defined, en

After defining the recovery protocol with AVE – Gestão Ambiental e Valorização Energética, the BORRACHA 2.0 (RUBBER 2.0) project entered a new phase of technical consolidation and industrial awareness. Industrial trials were carried out to assess the stability of the results and the consistency of the recovery process on a real scale. These tests confirmed the feasibility of using non-fluorinated and non-chlorinated rubber waste as an alternative fuel in the cement industry,

The replacement of fossil fuels with waste-derived fuels (WDF) is one of the fastest-growing areas in the energy recovery sector, especially when recycling is no longer feasible - either because the products have reached the end of their life cycle or because of the complexity of the materials they are made of. Flows such as mixed plastics, end-of-life textiles and footwear, paper and cardboard utilities, packaging with aluminium foil, non-recyclable fractions of tyres or fur

The BORRACHA 2.0 (RUBBER 2.0) project was born out of a difficulty shared by several companies in the rubber industry: the fate of industrial waste that cannot be reincorporated into their processes and inevitably ends up in landfill. The question was simple but crucial — how to eliminate landfill and give new life to this material? JCConsulting, long associated with the sector, took on the challenge of finding a concrete answer. The starting point was the need to ensure that
