FANGHI: TCR Tecora shares the project.

FANGHI (Forme Avanzate di Gestione dei Fanghi di Depurazione in un Hub Innovativo Lombardo) is one of the 33 outstanding projects selected in the Lombardy Region’s “Call Hub Ricerca e Innovazione” program, co-funded by the ERDF ROP 2014–2020.

FANGHI is about Circular Economy: the possibility of reusing stabilized waste (specifically, sewage sludge) represents an opportunity for a region like Lombardy, which produces about 500,000 tons annually (ARPA data 2017).

FANGHI also focuses on Sustainability: assessing the environmental and toxicological impact of using this resource—whether traditionally as an agricultural soil amendment or through thermal valorization—with the aim of protecting the well-being of people and the environment.

PhD. Maria Grazia Perrone and Dott. Paolo Lopinto explain TCR Tecora’s role within this important and ambitious project.
