CAPTURE Information

CAPTURE is a research platform on circular economy that links above 300 researchers and above 100 companies. It is a one-stop-shop for industry and government and offers integrated solutions related to resource recovery, without being restrained by the boundaries of institutes and stakeholders. The key partners are Ghent University, VITO, the University of Antwerp and Vrije Universiteit Brussel. CAPTURE wants to deliver a disruptive contribution to the circular economy, focussing on three pipelines: water 'fit-for-use', CO2 to product, and plastics to resource. CAPTURE has three main pillars: 1. Clustering of expertise, infrastructure and stakeholders in thematic pipelines, developing solutions from waste to resource, to final application; 2. Acceleration of the introduction of knowledge and technologies towards industry and society; 3. Training of multidisciplinary professionals.
