RESEARCH IN SIMTECH

INTRODUCTION

CPT focuses on innovating process technologies and capabilities to enable a distributed approach for resource circularity. Other than developing processes and systems for waste-to-resource management, the group looks to collaborate extensively to co-develop and drive processes to close the loop in the manufacturing value chain.

Focus Research Areas:

• Resource Segregation and Reconditioning
• Water & Wastewater Processing

RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS

• AuTomAted Sorting (ATAS) Bin
