Virtual European Recycling Centre
Gaiker is the head of the Virtual European Recycling Centre. This project financed by the European Commission will receive the amount of 2 million euros for the next three years. The main function of this project is to provide the required information to all European companies that are working in the area of recycling by using the newest information technologies that are available. VERC will try... View More (2002-08-01)
Water recycling in the textile finishing industry
The treatment and recycling of colored wastewater from dyestuffs producing and textile finishing industries have always been a non-trivial problem for the sewage engineering sector. The recycling of process water of textile mills is often hindered by remaining colour of azo-dyes after conventional wastewater treatment. Because of rising costs of emitted wastewater, lawful limits and restricted... View More (2002-11-22)
Recycling liquid crystal display screens
GAIKER Technological Centre is taking part in a European project under the auspices of the VI Framework Programme involving the reuse and recycling of liquid crystal display screens (ReLCD) employed in the manufacture of devices such as laptops, electronic agendas, calculators, mobile telephones, electronic video-games, audio equipment, televisions and computer screens.

EC Recycling Demands too simplistic
The European Union is becoming increasingly strict in its rules governing recycling in the automobile branch, but there seems to be little or no theoretical foundation for these rules. Antoinette van Schaik concludes this in her PhD thesis on car recycling, which she will defend on 8 December at TU Delft. View More (2004-12-03)
Yale Researchers Call for Specialty Metals Recycling
An international policy is needed for recycling scarce specialty metals that are critical in the production of consumer goods, according to Yale researchers in Science. View More (2012-09-25)
New challenge for producers of refrigerators
The European Union has introduced a directive on waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE). The directive makes producers responsible for the recycling of the electrical and electronic equipment that they put on the market. The results from a study of refrigerators made by CIT Elektronik, Chalmers Industriteknik in Sweden, indicate that the targets of the WEEE directive can not be achieved... View More (2003-11-26)
`Artificial vision` for recycling
The technological centre Robotiker from Zamudio (Basque Country) has developed a system of artificial sight to separate metals that come with copper, in order to obtain high purity copper. To recover copper from old cables it is not something new. However, the recycled copper is not pure, because it is mixed with other metals, such as lead, aluminium and tin. It is quite complicated to separate... View More (2002-08-09)
Only 5 years left to deal with to Europe's End of Life Vehicle Directive - UK Vehicle Industry Looks to New German and Spanish Solutions at Special Conference: press invitation
The European End of Life Vehicle Directive has significant implications for all involved in the production, procurement, use and disposal of motor vehicles. Estimates of the cost of this exceed £75 million per annum. The UK government`s decision to make last users fund the cost of ELV processing lasts only to 2007. So there is considerable interest in a conference being organised by the... View More (2002-08-23)
Trash or treasure? Discarded US computers often get a second life
More computers discarded by consumers in the United States are getting a second life in developing countries than previously believed, according to a new study -- the most comprehensive ever done on the topic. View More (2009-09-02)
Recycling wind turbines
The development of wind power promises much in terms of providing us with renewable energy for the future and wind turbines could be the most effective way to harness that power. View More (2007-09-21)
New paper sheds light on bacterial cell wall recycling
A new paper by a team of researchers led by Shahriar Mobashery, Navari Family Professor of Life Sciences at the University of Notre Dame, provides important new insights into the process by which bacteria recycle their cell wall. View More (2008-09-09)
New understanding of basic units of memory
A molecular "recycling plant" permits nerve cells in the brain to carry out two seemingly contradictory functions - changeable enough to record new experiences, yet permanent enough to maintain these memories over time. View More (2007-09-20)

Recycling of electronic circuit boards
GAIKER, research center from the Basque Country is a participant in a project at a multinational level which is financed by the European Union Competitive and Sustainable Growth Project. The project is to develop innovative technology which will have two aspects or stages: firstly the separation and recovery of components capable of being reused and, subsequently, the recycling of materials used...

Extracting Metal from the Sea ââ"ö" the Environmentally Friendly Way
A novel method that uses bacteria to mine valuable minerals from the ocean has been developed. Nodules collected from the Indian Ocean seabed can be treated to extract scarce land-based minerals in an environmentally sound way, says research published in the Journal of Chemical Technology and Biotechnology. Using the marine species Bacillus M1, Cobalt, Copper and Nickel can be extracted from the... View More (2004-04-02)

MIT uncovers key blood protein
Scientists working in the only lab at MIT doing hematology research have uncovered a protein that plays a key role in the recycling of iron from blood. View More (2007-10-12)
Recycling 'tiny trash' -- cigarette butts
A new study suggests expanding community recycling programs beyond newspapers, beverage containers, and other traditional trash to include an unlikely new potential treasure: Cigarette butts. View More (2010-05-13)
Bright future for picture-tube recycling
Millions of old television and computer picture tubes are thrown away each year, representing a major waste of resources and a toxic strain on our environment. With research funding from Tekes, a Finnish company has come up with an efficient system to recover nearly all the useful material from cathode ray tubes (CRT's), while safely disposing of the poisonous elements. "Our patented method using... View More (2004-06-03)
A new focus for the mechanism of nerve growth
Researchers at Yale shed new light on the mechanism of nerve cell growth by identifying novel functions for a molecular "motor" protein, myosin-II, according to an article in the March issue of Nature Cell Biology. View More (2006-03-20)
